January 2020 update (revision 71) to the four-year University-wide technology roadmap is available to University constituents as a PDF document on Penn+Box at:
https://upenn.box.com/v/techroadmaps
The primary goal of this technology roadmap is to help Penn’s technology professionals make contextual decisions within the overall University technology environment. It is for internal use—please do not forward it to non-Penn individuals.
This seventeenth update to the roadmap that was initially released over four years ago has 39 of the 178 existing technologies listed modified in some way. Two new technologies have been added—CrowdStrike and direct public cloud peering, while three have been removed—instant messaging (Jabber), macOS 10.10.x, and Windows Media Player 10 (Windows).
All modified technologies are delineated by an orange box to the right of their name and are described in the changelog on the final page of the roadmap.
This roadmap represents the best current estimates of the status of these technologies. It will often revise over time and is wholly re-evaluated every quarter. My thanks go to the many individuals across the University—about 35—who assisted in compiling this eighteenth release of the roadmap.
