CDW found that 53% of organizations are running AI workloads in hybrid cloud environments, but are they prepared to scale? Agencies must surmount supply chain and procurement issues if they want to expand their initial AI use cases to develop new services that meet citizen demands.

Agencies are done talking about their “cloud journeys.” They now need actionable advice on how to increase the speed and quality of their deployments to keep pace with artificial intelligence. Our white paper walks IT leaders through information on automated management and security tools as well as cloud-native apps and data.

Legacy IT environments can’t handle AI workloads and threaten to render the government’s investments in the technology fruitless. By building modern architectures, agencies position themselves to develop and deploy cutting-edge AI.

Employees can stay on mission when agencies use a strategic approach to IT modernization that leverages trusted partners to improve computing, networking and storage. Such an approach will likely involve a cloud migration, but it also requires targeted investments in new systems and applications, plus assessments and updates to IT infrastructure.
