How USAID is continuing to leverage the cloud to support its global mission

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is an independent federal government agency primarily responsible for administering civilian foreign aid and development assistance. As such, the ability to leverage cloud services has played a pivotal role in helping USAID support several key mission objectives, including efforts to foster global health, climate sustainability, and supply chain initiatives, according to USAID Chief Information Officer Jason Gray.

Gray recently joined Scoop News Group’s Wyatt Kash, and Jamie Baker, director of federal civilian health science policy at Amazon Web Services, for a conversation about how leveraging the cloud can reduce administrative overhead, free up resources to support more meaningful work, and accelerate automation and speed up security patching and development.
