The IT services as they exist today have accompanied ETH Zurich for almost a fifth of its lifetime. A lot has changed during this time. The IT Services have grown considerably and been given many new tasks. We are keeping a record of the history of ETH and its IT Services, for us and future interested people to browse through and dive into. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
ITS\nsupports the researchers, lecturers, students and employees of ETH and covers\nconstantly changing needs. From the first computer to large data centers, from\nhuge hard disks to cloud storage solutions. In our articles on ITS and ETH\nhistory, you can read interesting stories about pioneers, internet at ETH,\nvocational training at ITS and much more. Or take a short tour through the\nattic or basement and puzzle what functions old IT finds had in their glory\ndays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The idea was born as a task for PR and Communication trainees of Sabine Hoffmann, who gain six months of work experience at ITS. Writing and researching texts is part of their daily routine. So why not use these skills to work through the history of ITS and its employees. Already after the first post, more and more ideas for further research came from many people. Comments, e-mails or even simple conversations during breakd resulted in more and more posts. And we are far from finished! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
