Description:
Wisconsin Public Radio had an aging radio backend in their aging building. In partnership with DoIT, they built a fully remote, trailblazing backend in DoIT's data centers — freeing up resources for WPR to spend on other ventures — and significantly upgraded connectivity between their seven bureaus and other Wisconsin Public Media installations.
