Federal government department

Six flagged Protected B workloads cleared in nine months.

The situation

A federal department of 12,000 employees runs most workloads at Protected B across US and Canadian cloud regions. Updated cloud policy named extraterritorial reach as a placement criterion.

What forced the question

  • Six workloads were flagged
  • The directive allowed 12 months to fix or migrate
  • Full on-premises meant $67M in capital and disruption

Questions a buyer asks

What can a foreign order reach?The US-headquartered cloud holds one fragment of the six needed. It reveals nothing.

Did the department leave the cloud?No. Cloud regions stay in use for a minority of fragments.

What if a site is lost?Any one domain can be offline and at least six fragments remain.

How was it applied?Per Protected B workload, so each flagged workload moved to green independently.
