Sitefinity Moves to the Cloud
Sep 15, 2025
Information Strategy and Services (ISS) has been strategically iterating on infrastructure and performance solutions for our university community through data-driven initiatives. As part of this work, our web team has migrated Sitefinity – our enterprise website platform – to a cloud-based, vendor-hosted solution.
Moving Sitefinity to the cloud offers improved service reliability, improved performance and scalability to grow with the campus. Sitefinity currently powers over 300 university websites across the CU Anschutz and CU Denver campuses and receives 25 million annual visits.
Benefits of the Move
- Improved performance and page loading times.
- Better accessibility tools to make university websites more inclusive.
- Increased system reliability with 99.9% uptime and 24/7 vendor support.
- This reduces the risk of outages ensuring consistent access to university websites.
- Increased security and compliance with automated patching and updates, as well as HIPAA features to reduce vulnerability and risks.
- Modernization to keep the university current with the latest technology.
- Improved service delivery, reducing downtime and manual maintenance.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us so that we can continue to prioritize initiatives that are relevant and beneficial to our university community. We are excited to bring you this improved version of Sitefinity, creating a more reliable digital gateway for students, faculty, staff and external audiences.
