The total dictation began as the project of students of Novosibirsk State University, but very quickly outgrew a framework of university audiences. Today it is the largest international initiative of promoting of Russian.

In process of development of the project it became obvious that the existing IT infrastructure does not provide necessary support of the growing loadings and scales. At the initiative of Servionica company the Total dictation passed into a cloud. Since 2015 it was carried out on a cloud platform of Servionika, since 2018 – in the Business cloud of Sbklaud company unrolled in one of the most reliable and large DPCs of Russia – TrustInfo.

In 2019 based on a cloud platform Sbklaud was reorganized one of key stages of the project: check of works and their issue to participants. It was possible to receive only a paper copy of work earlier. Now it is possible to receive estimates literally "from a cloud": instead of the labor-consuming procedure of obtaining paper originals of the checked works the scan copy can be downloaded in the Personal account of the participant on the project website. It became possible thanks to a new element of IT infrastructure of the Total dictation: To the cloud storage. It was unrolled in the Business cloud Sbklaud based on DPC TrustInfo (TierIII).

For the first time in the history of the project possibilities of the protected cloud platform and technologies of stream digitization and data storage, the organization of the protected geodistributed access for a team of volunteers and experts of the project were integrated.

More than 26000 works from the most mass regions of the project – Moscow and Novosibirsk – after check were scanned, loaded into the cloud storage on the Sbklaud platform unrolled in data center TrustInfo and from there are distributed on Personal accounts of project participants on the website of the Total dictation. Forms of participants from Moscow with the put-down marks were delivered from the headquarters of "A total dictation" to the production site of ELAR for scanning and indexing. The received electronic array and base of results loaded into a cloud Sbklaud it were provided to organizers through the protected high-speed access.

Longer technology way was done by results of "A total dictation" from Novosibirsk: from "cloud" in ELAR and back. Checked by the same principle, as in Moscow, dictations of the Novosibirsk participants were scanned on places and loaded into the cloud storage Sbklaud to whom a secure access was provided to operators of ELAR. It allowed to accelerate and simplify mass check of works and the publication of results of the Total dictation-2019. The solution confirmed the efficiency and will be applied in the Total dictation of 2020.
