Defence calls in the big guns for cloud migration help

Defence has contracted AWS and Microsoft to help with its migration and multi-cloud environment, inking fresh limited tender deals with the US hyperscalers worth more than $12 million.

The cloud work comes after a significant shift in facilities last year when Defence migrated out of a Sydney data centre over concerns about Chinese ownership, and ahead of its new Defence Top Secret Cloud coming online.

AWS, which is building Defence’s Top Secret Cloud, was last month tapped for one-year of professional services on a migration program. The migration is expected to take several years and involve multiple cloud providers.
