The Scottish Government is currently working on getting its cloud migration programme underway.
Indeed, the government aims to migrate applications, data, and workloads to the SG Cloud Platform. It has recently run the first pilot of the programme and is starting the second pilot. The first pilot consisted of moving applications for the R100 team to a platform hosted by AWS. This included developing a business case for the cloud, selecting the IT service provider, upskilling the team in agile working, establishing a technical design, and managing the onboarding to the platform.
In the second pilot, the government is aiming to complete the alpha phase of the programme, define a delivery roadmap, and develop a sustainable operating model.
