The commercial #cloud is key to #Singapore's #digitalgovernment

The pressure of using #cloudtechnologies had never been so intense for governments until the Covid-19 pandemic hit.

Multinational conglomerates like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft are leading the commercial #cloudcomputing revolution, providing organisations with both scalable and customisable options.

They bring the modern innovations and capabilities of these platforms to less sensitive #governmentsystems.

So, instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, Singapore’s government agencies can tap on commercial #cloudsoftware to integrate advanced functionalities into their #digitalservices.

Application testing and deployment can be automated and done in real-time, thus speeding up the delivery of high-quality public digital services to citizens and businesses.
