The UCISA Digital Infrastructure Group is a community of skilled & experienced infrastructure and networking professionals from across the sector. Drawing upon the shared knowledge and experience of UCISA members, our aim is to share knowledge and promote the best possible delivery of all infrastructure and networking services that help underpin a well-managed IT delivery. The Digital Infrastructure Group acts as the expert voice of infrastructure & networking technologies within the wider UCISA community. The Digital Infrastructure Group fosters, encourages and shares inspirational thinking through events and the publication of relevant case studies. The group also conducts the UCISA Infrastructure Survey to share experiences with other institutions and get a unique insight into the infrastructure & networking landscape across the sector. As well as promoting best practice, the group provides opportunities for personal and professional development as well as sharing supplier critiques based on genuine service and product experiences. UCISA's Digital Infrastructure Group promotes dialogue, networking, knowledge sharing and collaboration on network issues and other relevant topics of common interest.
