University of Missouri manages web operations at scale
Blog post from Upsun
The University of Missouri undertook a comprehensive six-year digital transformation to centralize and standardize its diverse web environments, initially scattered across 1,600 decentralized on-premises sites using various content management systems like Drupal and WordPress. By partnering with Upsun for cloud hosting, the university's Digital Service team significantly reduced website maintenance time by 75%, decreased annual hosting costs by 30%, and enhanced web performance, enabling the sites to handle three times more requests. This strategic move not only streamlined web operations through automation and standardized processes but also allowed the team to focus on higher-value projects such as reinforcing the university's brand and improving user experience. The transition involved educating a diverse developer community and implementing a more agile DevOps approach, ultimately resulting in a more efficient management system that supports more sites with fewer developers. The project has positioned the university to better meet its branding and operational goals, supporting the institution's broader objectives in the higher education sector.
