May 29, 2011: At Cloud Expo NY, NJVC Vice President and General Manager, Cloud Services, Kevin L. Jackson described how adoption of the cloud computing business model is accelerating globally. In the United States, particularly, the federal government is quickly moving IT operations to the cloud--driven in large part in response to the White House's "Cloud First" policy. Ongoing budget battles and continuing resolutions squeezed many government cloud contract awards into the third and fourth quarters of 2011. In short, any organization--public or private--must have a cloud computing strategy in place now; otherwise it is already behind the curve.
