Local governments are at a turning point. Faced with mounting challenges posed by the COVID-19 health crisis and expected to do more with less, many cities and counties are embracing the stark reality that the status quo—using excel grids or homegrown systems—just doesn’t cut it.

Clearing a path to multicloud as the new foundation for digital government

To say that the last year has been challenging for state and local governments is a massive understatement.
