This document discusses the federal government's strategy for adopting cloud computing. It outlines that [1] federal data centers currently have low utilization rates and high costs, [2] shifting to cloud computing could save up to $20 billion per year by improving efficiency, agility and innovation, and [3] some early government adopters like HHS, GSA and the Department of Defense have already realized significant cost savings and other benefits from cloud computing.
