UW-Madison Develops Google Cloud Platform Service for Public Health Research

Burwood is a 2023 Google Cloud Partner of the Year

We’re proud to be the Google Cloud US Education Partner of the Year, Public Sector, for the third year in a row.

The cloud is transforming higher education — improving performance, adding new capabilities and access, and driving down costs. Its infinite capacity and cutting-edge capabilities can support artificial intelligence and machine learning initiatives, GPUs, TPUs, and more. When you leverage the cloud, you open new possibilities for education and research in your institution.

For higher education institutions with decades of investment in legacy IT, cloud adoption can be challenging. Burwood Group has built an expert cloud consulting team with deep technical expertise in cloud onboarding, Kubernetes architecture, and automated infrastructure and data processes. We enable you to confidently manage and monitor your cloud resources.

Many institutions need to leverage and modernize their legacy infrastructure to meet these needs. Burwood Group’s higher education consultants are experts in mapping end user expectations back to IT infrastructure decisions and strategy, all while ensuring cybersecurity is top-of-mind. Beyond Google Cloud, our deep technical expertise includes:

Scaling Classroom Applications with Infrastructure As Code

When Brown University needed to expand and improve their JupyterHub classrooms, they partnered with Burwood to create an automated architecture with Google Cloud, Kubernetes, and Terraform.

“When I started using JupyterHub, I had to personally monitor all classrooms. I was worried about scaling. Working with our Central IT staff and Burwood Group, we’ve expanded that classroom to a central, supported, and automated environment. Today, we have reliable technology that produces a great student experience.”
