Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could simply point to cloud standards and claim that such standards could reliably lubricate government adoption of safe, dependable, accreditable cloud computing?! Sadly, we cannot. At least, not yet.
And, this fact is as true for commercial adoption of cloud computing as it is for government adoption. It is also the subject of this month’s question in the Mitre Cloud Computing Forum for Government.
In support of our effort to provide enterprise-class cloud computing services with the highest level of security and reliability that CSC customers have come to expect in the past 50 years, CSC is announcing today the opening of 7 new cloud-enabled data centers around the globe.
Customers of CSC’s Trusted Cloud Services and Hosting solutions will have access to these new data centers that feature fully virtualized cloud fabric and offer multiple grades of service level agreement. The new CSC data centers will afford customers even more infrastructure to integrate their public, private or hybrid cloud IT architecture.
The shift to cloud computing is nothing short of a historic moment for business and information technology. And CSC plans on being a big part of that.
So we’re getting into the habit of capturing our team’s thoughts and positions on camera. You’ll see more of this as we attend events and panels and present papers in the coming months.
Here’s one we recorded recently in which I talk about how CSC’s 50 years of experience as a systems integrator provides crucial experience in determining the right cloud and the right way to implement it for each of our clients.
Do you see cloud computing as a disruptive innovation? What do you see as the most pressing topics we should be discussing in this forum?
