In order to better serve citizens and businesses, the subject of digitization is high on the government's agenda. However, further digitization of services requires a solid, future-proof, flexible and scalable digital infrastructure. The movement to the cloud, with its promise of agility, scalability and speed, plays an important role in this and helps to break free from legacy. A movement that is further reinforced by the letter to parliament 'Government-wide cloud policy 2022'. But what does this mean for practical implementation?
