IBM has received provisional authorization from the Defense Information Systems Agency to host impact level 5 data of Defense Department and federal agency customers through a multitenant cloud computing platform.
DISA said Tuesday it granted a 12-month PA to the company’s SmartCloud for Government infrastructure-as-a-service platform.
SCG encompasses compute, memory, network, operating system and storage provisioning services intended to help clients address production, development and test computing requirements.
The authorization marks the first IL5 for this service offering, DISA noted.
