Mohave Community College and Indiana University were selected winners in the category IT Infrastructure and Systems.  

MCC was honored for its online disaster recovery systems upgrades that we first told you about last year, when the college had the honor of holding a breakout session at the VMWorld 2018 Convention in Las Vegas.

The college has been able cut down online disaster recovery times from a few hours to just a few minutes, with zero data loss.
