MeetUp to talk GovCloud

As more and more people move their work into the cloud, security remains the number one priority, and concern, for agencies. But now, Esri’s ArcGIS technology can be deployed in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud US Region. This means government agencies can take full advantage of the benefits of using ArcGIS in the cloud to deploy more sensitive workloads while meeting regulation requirements. As a result, existing Esri federal government users can more easily share their own GIS applications and data with other agencies.

To learn more about this technology trend, join Esri and GovLoop on Thursday, November 8 as we MeetUp to talk GovCloud. This is your opportunity to connect with GIS and developer professionals from throughout the D.C. metro area and learn more about AWS GovCloud environment and Esri technology.
