IT solutions and service provider Gulf Business Machines (GBM), UAE, and the Higher Colleges of Technology (HCT) recently announced an agreement for the development of an educational cloud computing platform, using the latest and leading enterprise technologies. Undertaken by GBM's Abu Dhabi division, the project will be the first of its kind to be deployed in an educational institute in Abu Dhabi.
In addition to the benefits that cloud computing will offer HCT, the project will act as a learning, research and development tool for students. Also, as part of effort to build the UAE's human capital and local cloud computing capabilities, GBM will involve HCT's students in the development process of the project to ensure optimum exposure to the cutting-edge technology.
In addition to involving students in the development of the Educational cloud computing platform, HCT will host guest lecturers from GBM on a regular basis. During the lectures, GBM spokespeople will showcase their experience and success stories in enterprise information technology and provide students with industry insights.
