With Chancellor George Osborne’s announcement that there will be an increase in savings expected from each government department, commentators are arguing that the IT industry will begin to see significant traction in the move towards cloud services.
The savings expected from each government department has increased from 20 per cent over a four-year period under Gordon Brown’s government to 25 per cent over the same period under the coalition, according to today's emergency Budget. More specific details on how departments will meet these savings will be released in the annual spending review on 20 October.
This puts more pressure on the public sector to provide the same services or similar for even less money, and arguably these savings can best be achieved by adopting cloud services.
