Server-Based ComputingIs made up of Systems Engineers; we are responsible for the management, planning, and implementation of the infrastructure services that are used by Sinclair students, faculty, and staff. Some of the services we provide are not readily visible to most users. An example of one of these "behind the scenes" services is Active Directory, the college's user authentication service that keeps your data safe. Other services are highly visible and widely utilized. Examples of our more visible services are user H-Drives, departmental shares, college-wide email services, and even remote access to your files.
