SURFworks: Nextcloud HUB Pilot SURF

Digital sovereignty

Digital sovereignty is an important theme within the SURF cooperative, where UT is one of the members. Since SURF's foundation, it has been guided by important public values such as accessibility, reliability, freedom of choice and privacy.

SURF has initiatives at various levels that increase the digital sovereignty of the sector. 

The roll-out and pilots with Nextcloud are part of this. These initiatives are intended to investigate how this collaborative environment contributes to strengthening the digital sovereignty and collective autonomy of education and research.

ICT Lab support

ICT Lab support

For the ICT support for labs, close cooperation is necessary between the  ICT service LISA and the Lab Technician responsible for the lab setup. Computers installed in the labs are completely different from the normal standard UT workplace. That can be the hardware, the operating system and the software.

However, it is often desirable that these computers have a network connecter to be operated remotely. This requires safety and accessibility requirements to maintain a reliable and secure UT network. In this project, together with the lab technicians, a good as much standard workable environment as possible is designed for these labs.
