cloud computing strategy!!!
Do you know how it will impact you?
WARNING:
If you already know the answer
you are one of the lucky ones
In Q3 2012 a the CIO Council published a
Government Cloud Computing strategy
The strategy outlines the kinds of cloud
services that could be offered and how
the government cloud might work?
Why am I
talking about this?
I’m talking because they asked nicely
and I know what I want from a
Government Cloud platform
But before we start let’s consider

What is missing from the strategy?
1. No mention of a cloud store 2. No detail on readiness or assessment criteria 3. No framework for assessment of public V community 4. No indication on mechanics of service provisioning, service management, service ownership 5. No mention of reference architectures 6. No reference to management of data related issues
Cloud store is a critical piece to support
SME access to government customers?
Legal/Contractual relationships between parties is critical?
