FIAC Presentation Mentions Cloud Computing

At the recent Federal Information Assurance Conference, Bob Gourley, CTO Crucial Point LLC, and former Defense Intelligence Agency CTO, recently provided his views on the state of Federal IT. His cloud computing related points were:

• Cloud computing (use of computations services from “the grid”) will accelerate
• Government IT powerhouses (like NSA, NGA, DIA, DISA, IMO) will deliver more and more capability to users via the grid

As a intelligence community meritorious service award winner and a Infoworld 2007 "Top 25 Most Influential CTO", his presentation  makes for a very interesting read.
