Case Study: Purdue University advances big data education with Rackspace Technology

Purdue University equips students with big data know-how

Purdue University, one of the nation’s leading computer science and engineering schools, needed an updated operating system to teach big data analytics and engineering as part of its database curriculum. To support this, Purdue worked with Rackspace Technology and its OpenStack Private Cloud offering.

Rackspace Technology engineered a private cloud OS tailored to Purdue’s advanced curriculum, enabling the university to launch courses that prepare students for careers at top tech companies. The solution gave Purdue the infrastructure it needed to deliver Intel-powered, leading-edge data instruction, helping strengthen its real-world tech job training.
