On-Demand Broadcast Now Available!

Click here to view this FREE On-Demand FCW Executive Briefing on the Cloud — and you will hear a discussion about the benefits of the Federal Cloud Computing Initiative (FCCI), the obstacles of implementing the OMB vision for Federal Cloud programs, current trends and primary drivers of Cloud adoption in government, and more!

This virtual FCW Executive Briefing will provide a snapshot of where agencies have been successful with cloud implementation, as well as the strategies and service options available to ease the actual and cultural transition for the Federal IT community.

Nearly two years ago, the Federal CIO issued the Federal Cloud Computing Strategy, to encourage the adoption of cloud computing by “requiring agencies to evaluate safe, secure cloud computing options before making any new investments.” Not all Federal IT professionals have embraced this mandate with enthusiasm, but agencies gradually are making progress to meet the stated cloud computing requirements in the policy.

• An overview of the Federal Cloud Computing Initiative in early 2013
