The adoption of ‘cloud first’ as a public sector policy could see a variety of organisations improve their way of working in a more effective and efficient way. Data challenges become increasingly complex, contributing to the evolution of public sector cloud strategies.
The adoption of ‘ cloud first ’ as a public sector policy could see a variety of organisations improve their way of working in a more effective and efficient way. As the sector unpacks the policy, data challenges become increasingly complex, contributing to the evolution of public sector cloud strategies . It begs the question, how much data needs storing, where should you store it, how can it be accessed and analysed in a way that derives the most value.
where an organisation’s data is physically stored and how it retains control and access rights to that data – whether it be with one provider by contractual choice, or in a geolocation known – or perhaps unknown. Put simply, it’s the ability for organisations to set their own digital destiny by having unimpeded and unhindered access and control over their data. ‘Impeded’ could – however unlikely – mean a provider making policy decisions to ramp up costs prohibitively, or simply restrict access through dispute. ‘Hindered’ – equally unlikely – could be a nation state refusing access to data stored within its border
