IT Governance: Subgroups

The IT governance subgroups groups are generated ad hoc to research a particular area or topic in-depth or to review a project in the IT governance pipeline. Subgroups are comprised of volunteers from across campus. If you are interested in serving on a subgroup, please reach out to the IT Governance Manager, Kelly Arruda.

Streaming Media Subgroup

The Streaming Media subgroup was tasked with examining streaming media needs and potential solutions for the campus. Their research revealed that there was not yet consensus across campus on what the major streaming requirements should be. As an alternative, they created a two-part survey that can be used to help units think about and select solutions for their area.   

Single Sign-On Subgroup

The Single Sign-On subgroup has been researching the feasibility of a central single sign-on solution aimed to reduce the number of total accounts that need to be managed by end users. This group is scheduled to wrap up by the end of summer. If this area is of interest, reach out to the subgroup chair, Gabriel Ruiz, for details. 

Application Programming Interface (API) Subgroup

The API Catalog Subgroup, chaired by Howard Kim, is working on an API catalog for the campus. They are currently in the process of collecting information about existing APIs. Once information has been collected and categorized, they plan to develop standards for producing, finding, accessing, updating and deprecating services. 

Business Continuity for IT Subgroup

This subgroup will be kicking off later this summer. Their goal is to create guidelines for IT units on campus to reference when developing or revising their Business Continuity Plan in the UC Ready system. Please contact Annelie Rugg for details.
