At the University of Arizona, Veterans Day is more than a moment of recognition. It’s a reflection of the university’s ongoing commitment to those who serve. From the nation’s top-ranked ROTC programs to the support provided through the Veterans Education and Transition Services (VETS) Center, Arizona continues to champion opportunity, belonging, and success for veterans and military-affiliated students.

Behind every swipe of a CatCard, click in CatCloud, or update in Trellis, countless systems quietly talk to one another – and that’s where Boomi comes in. Boomi is a cloud-based integration platform used by the University of Arizona’s UITS Enterprise Integration Platform Services team to help campus systems share information quickly, safely, and automatically.

Few realize there’s an entire world of servers—thousands of them—quietly working behind the scenes to keep those systems alive. That’s where David Gay, Director of Server Administration and Security, and his team come in.
