Cloud IT Services
The Cloud First policy mandates that agencies take full advantage of cloud computing benefits to maximize capacity utilization, improve IT flexibility and responsiveness, and minimize cost.
We help agencies comply with mandates and guidelines for moving to the cloud. Our cloud IT services provide convenient, on-demand access to a shared pool of computing resources that can be quickly and easily configured, provisioned, and released.
To help your agency move to the cloud more efficiently and better plan for developing new cloud applications, please refer to the standardized Cloud migration statement of objectives (SOOs) templates below.
