CLOUD VS. ON-PREMISES IT SERVICES
The Emporia State University information technology infrastructure is made up of many different components, systems and services. They are often referred to as "Cloud-based" or "On-Premises".

Please note this is for overview purposes and specific incidents may have an impact not covered by this document.
