Fusion PPT, a recognized strategy and technology solution firm, announced today that CEO Michael Biddick’s article on Open Source Clouds In Government has been published in InformationWeek.

As government IT professionals develop cloud computing strategies and evaluate technologies to build and deploy clouds, they must be aware of the open source options that are available. The Linux operating system, Eucalyptus clustering software, Globus Nimbus toolkit, and other open source programs are well suited for cloud computing.

In this report, Biddick looks at the leading open source components used for cloud computing and how those pieces fit together to create elastic, on-demand IT environments. Whether government agencies are assessing internal clouds, public cloud services, or private-public hybrid cloud environments, this report shows where open source may fit into those plans.
