The Data Center Optimization Initiative (DCOI) established in OMB Memorandum M-19-19 supercedes the Federal Data Center Consolidation Initiative (FDCCI) and fulfills the data center requirements of the Federal Information Technology Acquisition Reform Act (FITARA). M-19-19 rescinds and replaces M-16-19 Data Center Optimization Initiative (DCOI).
DCOI requires agencies to optimize and consolidate data centers to deliver better services to the public while increasing return-on-investment to taxpayers.
DCOI is a part of the Cloud Smart strategy.
