Manage episode 430567106 series 3453696
How do government agencies ensure their cloud solutions are both secure and efficient? Join us on the Cables2Clouds podcast as we unravel the complexities of Government cloud solutions with our distinguished guest, Erica Cooper from Cisco. With her deep expertise in cloud technology tailored for the government sector, Erica provides invaluable insights into the unique requirements and security considerations of Government cloud environments. We explore why Microsoft Azure is a favored choice due to its integration with Office 365 and the critical role of hybrid solutions like Azure Hub and HCI in maintaining secure, isolated environments essential for national security.
Ever wondered about the painstaking process of transitioning government applications from physical servers to the cloud? We tackle this intricate journey, focusing on US government deployments and the substantial presence of Microsoft Azure for Government (MAG) in these projects. Erica sheds light on the importance of having a point of presence in the continental US (CONUS) for effective communication and operational efficiency. We also delve into the global proliferation of Microsoft Azure for Government services, comparing it with AWS GovCloud and discussing the significance of terms like CONUS and OCONUS in this context.
In our deep dive into implementing GovCloud, we emphasize the paramount importance of security in managing and deploying government cloud resources. Erica walks us through the rigorous vetting processes, security clearances, and collaborative efforts necessary to build and manage secure cloud infrastructure. We touch on the logistical challenges, from coordinating escorts to setting up secure facilities, and discuss the integration of AWS Cloud and Cisco's Nexus Dashboard Fabric Controller for enhanced network visibility. Don’t miss out on this comprehensive discussion that highlights the practical benefits of transitioning from traditional data centers to sophisticated cloud environments.
