Why cloud for state and local governments?
When legacy systems age, maintenance costs rise and diminishing performance impacts your ability to serve the public and protect your communities. Virtualization, outsourcing and consumption-based cloud services can help you accomplish more without sacrificing security or control.
Even local governments and small municipal agencies with tighter budgets and fewer IT resources can transition to a modern cloud environment.
We’ll help you realize the benefits of the cloud, including:
