Vitality Data Center project
Het Vitality Data Center wordt ontwikkeld in samenhang met het GGHDC (UU/UMCU) en het DSC/e (TU/e), en maakt (indien mogelijk) gebruik van infrastructuur en applicaties die in deze data centers al aanwezig zijn. De nadruk ligt op specifieke toevoegingen in het kader van de UU-UMCU-TU/e Alliantie op het gebied van sport en bewegen. Deze toevoegingen zullen worden toegespitst op het terrein van sporten en bewegen in de openbare ruimte. Dit is een van de speerpunten in de Alliantie en een belangrijk beleidsvraagstuk in de gemeenten Eindhoven en Utrecht.
