Swiss Government Cloud Dissolved: New Federal Data Infrastructure Could Cost Up to CHF 7 Billion
Published
The Swiss Government Cloud, a project for the federal government's digital infrastructure, is apparently being dissolved. This is according to the business magazine Bilanz. The cloud was intended to store and process federal administration data securely.
The new federal data infrastructure is also at the center of the reporting. According to Bilanz, it is expected to cost no more than CHF 7 billion. This is a large sum, which is why the topic interests many people in Switzerland, especially taxpayers.
The reasons for the end of the project and how things will proceed afterwards are not clearly stated in the report available. However, the federal administration still needs a modern and secure infrastructure for its data. The development will therefore be closely monitored in the coming weeks.
The topic is important for Switzerland because it concerns public funds and the handling of sensitive data. Further information from the federal government or the responsible authorities could bring clarity. Until then, many questions remain open.
