Scott starts out with some background on traditional State and Local Government IT and then move into highlighting new cloud based opportunities, like true disaster recovery, business continuity, enhanced security and scalability, for Central ITs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;font-family: 'Segoe UI Light';font-size: 11.0pt\">We look at the difference between a\u00a0 capital expenditure spending model and an operational expenditure spending model and discuss how State and Local agencies can benefit from shifting to a more operational model &#8211; both from a cost and capabilities perspective. We cover\u00a0 Compliance as a Service, Cloud Networking as a Service and enabling cloud migration along with information about available resources and next steps.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3qC3WvBYFnE&amp;index=1&amp;list=PLLasX02E8BPA5IgCPjqWms5ne5h4briK7\">Enabling Central IT to become a Cloud broker (Video)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"854\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3qC3WvBYFnE?list=PLLasX02E8BPA5IgCPjqWms5ne5h4briK7\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;line-height: 18pt;font-family: 'Segoe UI Light';font-size: 11.0pt\"><span>Also, be sure to subscribe to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/windowsazure\/featured\">Microsoft Azure YouTube Channel<\/a><span> to see the latest videos on the Azure Government playlist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in;line-height: 18pt;font-family: 'Segoe UI Light';font-size: 11.0pt\"><span>We welcome your comments and suggestions to help us improve your Azure Government experience.
