LEAGUE SESSION:  GOVERNMENT IN THE CLOUD – WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CLOUD-BASED COMPUTING

9:00 a.m. - 10:40 a.m. – Room 415 – Atlantic City Convention Center

Whether you’re an IT professional or elected official from a large or small agency, “cloud-based” computing opportunities are moving mainstream and may offer advantages such as increasing IT capabilities at lower costs and while reducing infrastructure, application development and deployment costs.  Many questions arise about using cloud-based services, such as what, when and how to migrate applications or IT infrastructure?  How secure is the cloud? Which type of cloud is right for me?  What challenges are unique to cloud computing in government and how are then being addressed?  This session will address these questions and more.
