Today marks a momentous occasion in enterprise information technology. CSC and Google are excited to kick off our work to help Los Angeles migrate to the cloud and the suite of Google Apps solutions. This is a project to be proud of because of the value and potential it represents, not only to the employees of the City of Los Angeles, but the citizens they serve.
City workers at all levels will transition, for example, from their legacy email system to a cloud-based solution hosted by Google, and CSC will be helping get them there. As an example of the benefits this will bring to the citizens of Los Angeles, moving email to a Google cloud will free up 100 servers and save Los Angeles nearly $750,000 in electricity costs over 5 years.
And that’s just a sample of the value captured in this project.
Simply put, the cost of email is up to 70% less in the cloud.
