U.S. Army is going Google!

To improve efficiency, collaboration, real-time communication, and most importantly to cut costs the U.S. Army is​ modernizing into the cloud with Google Apps.  See "U.S. Army to cut costs, improve collaboration and go mobile with Google Apps".  This is smart strategic move to the mobile future. The Army even setup a private Google Play are to distribut mobile apps internally. "The Army anticipates rapid adoption of Google Apps because many Soldiers and Army personnel already use Google Apps in their personal lives. Gmail and Hangouts, for example, are popular ways to keep in touch with friends and family while deployed. Google Apps also enables seamless and high fidelity interoperability in their existing work environment with Google Quickoffice. ...Google Apps runs on multiple operating systems and browsers providing more device options, plus works with existing Army security policies and DoD directory and authentication services. Google’s completion of FISMA certification and accreditation gave the government a complete understanding of the security controls Google Apps has in place and how they meet the Army’s stringent criteria."
