Intelligence community article list: Multi-cloud success for the intelligence community

A series of articles by position level for members of the Intelligence Community around multi-cloud adoption and success.

The Intelligence Community (IC) is moving from a single-cloud community to a multi-cloud community with the introduction of the Commercial Cloud Enterprise (C2E) contract. Leadership is planning for the impact this will have on program staffing and the way systems are engineered, tested, and deployed.
