Warrington received in order to introduce virtualization via an OpenStack “Cloud” System to SUNY Orange Applied Technology students. The department will be able to expand this Technology into many of its classes.
- CIT 118 Operating Systems – We implemented a small OpenStack “Cloud” Pilot/Test Environment which has 3 nodes and is already used in CIT 118 (Operating Systems) to discuss virtualization. The project served as a pilot and impetus to pursue the SUNY IITG grant.
