Public sector organizations are being advised to use higher-level cloud services by the UK government after it updated its cloud-first policy. Departments are also being encouraged to look to global providers as part of the updated guidance.

He suggests that while the cloud-first updates do address the point on cloud economics, closer attention will be needed for costs.
