PaaS or Play? Cloud’s Next Move

Federal IT is fundamentally broken. GAO tells us Uncle Sam spends 70 percent, or US$56 billion, of the IT budget on legacy systems.* How do we euthanize yesterday’s IT and consolidate for tomorrow when there’s no money for new development? Agencies turn toward Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS). Hosting new application development in the cloud gives agencies the opportunity to develop, experiment, innovate, and test for less time and money.
