Facilitating disaster preparedness
“The new data center reinforces our capability to host critical applications 
offsite to offset the potential impact of a disaster,” QU Networking and 
Telecommunications section head Shuja Ashfaq says.  “We are now in a 
good position to react to any unforeseen circumstances.”
In addition to giving the university the flexibility 
to scale and react to both controlled and 
unexpected events, the new data center reduces 
the risks by removing unnecessary touch points 
and management silos. 
“The data center will give us the opportunity to meet the evolving needs 
and requirements of the faculty members and to satisfy the needs of the 
researchers within the colleges, especially the newly established College of 
Medicine,” says Ashfaq. “In addition, we can create more defined security 
policies for our various applications in collaboration with Cisco.”

“We are aiming to offer a hybrid learning model that combines traditional and 
digital teaching methods,” QU Information Technology Services Department 
chief information officer (CIO), Trevor Moore said, adding, “A cloud-based 
environment will enable our students and faculty to access resources when 
needed, regardless of location or device.” 
Added to its expanded student and faculty population, and fast-growing 
academic and research portfolio, QU has further advanced its role as the 
nation’s research engine. In this regard, the university sought to implement a 
flexible and scalable IT platform to support its faculty and student needs and 
to provide its community with an optimal anytime, anywhere teaching and 
learning environment.
