CIA and Amazon’s $600 Million “Cloud” Business
by Emine Dilek
According to a newly released report by The Business of Federal Technology website, the USA Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the company Amazon are about to sign a ‘cloud computing’ contract priced $600 million.
The FCW article states that the CIA Chief Information Officer Jeanne Tisinger told an audience at the Northern Virginia Technology Council Board of Directors meeting on March 12, that “CIA is leveraging the commercial sector’s innovation cycle, looking for cost efficiencies in commodity IT, and using software-as-a-service for common solutions, working with companies like Amazon.”
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the Amazon’s remote computing and cloud computing platform offered online. Cloud Computing is a type of internet service that relies on sharing computing resources such as virtual servers, rather than having local servers or personal devices to handle applications.
CC can be done in a “private cloud” by using cloud computing technologies in a company’s own data center, or publicly by using public clouds that are in hosted facilities, where the hardware is shared with many users. Sharing the hardware saves money and time.
