The Kentucky Department of Education is replacing its e-mail servers with a free cloud-based offering from Microsoft. This change to cloud servers will help 700,000+ students, faculty and staff with e-mail and other information-sharing tools. By using a free, cloud-based offering, the state expects to save US$6.3 million in IT-related costs over the next four years.

Each user of Microsoft’s Live@edu will get a 10GB e-mail inbox, along with 25 gigabytes of additional file storage. The service will also include document sharing, instant messaging, video chat and mobile e-mail capabilities. More than 10,000 schools across 130 countries use the Live@edu service, according to Microsoft.
