Learn from the experiences of three local governments who have moved some or all of their operations to the Cloud.
Learn from the experiences of three local governments who have moved some or all of their operations to the Cloud. Download this free set of case studies that features a small Township (Holden Beach, NC, with 24 employees), a medium-sized city (Wilmington, NC, with 900 employees) and a County (New Hanover County, NC, with 2,000 employees). They all have different solutions that are provided from the same Private Cloud Platform provider.
Local government officials, including Town Manager David Hewett, CIO Leslie Chaney and IT Manager Larry Bergman discuss real-world considerations to making their Cloud a reality including:
- How they addressed their concerns about disaster preparedness, security, data integrity, compliance and assured connectivity.
- Determining what Services each wanted to move to the Cloud, interoperability with on-site systems and the level of control they wanted their IT Staff to retain.
- The use of their existing Licensing in the Cloud
- Legal & Budgetary matters arising from Cloud based IT being consumed as a scalable, monthly "Service Utility".
- The use of existing Licensing in the Cloud
- Major multi-application platform uplifts where the "heavy lifting" of making systems available was accomplished in weeks for projects that would have been impossible otherwise due to IT resource and budget limitations.
Aside from the technical considerations, each of these communities had to consider the human factor, such as how moving to the Cloud would affect both employees and customers.
This free set of case studies is a companion piece to a recent American City & County webinar, From Operations to Politics: A Township, a City and a County, all use Private Cloud, that is available OnDemand by clicking here.
