Cloud technologies in the management of pedagogical higher education institutions

Abstract

The aim of the study is to systematize relevant information on the use of cloud technologies in the management of pedagogical higher education institutions. In the process of studying, general scientific methods of knowledge, which include analysis, synthesis, comparison, were used. Also, the survey results are used to assess the effectiveness of the application of different technologies and their use to manage the university. According to the results of the study, we can conclude that before the pandemic, the situation in the field of cloud computing was quite different. Only some of the world's best universities were implementing cloud technology in their management processes. Today, almost every higher education institution in the world fully or partially implements cloud technology to provide distance education. The main technological products are offers from Google and Microsoft. They are mainly used to store educational information and organize communications within the educational institution.  The main problems of using cloud technology have been identified, including the load on the IT staff, the problem of licensing and integration with other cloud services.
