We would like to draw your attention to a survey that has been launched by the Cloud Standards Coordination (CSC), in collaboration between the European Commission (EC) and ETSI ...
After the initial analysis of challenges and barriers that exist in cloud procurement (survey on Procurement of Cloud services: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/PICSE) we would like to understand specific barriers that public sector organisations (mainly reserach institutes and libraries) are facing while procuring IaaS and PaaS/SaaS services through two short follow up surveys.
To ensure that Europe reaps the benefits of the shift to cloud computing, there is the need to focus on new ways of procuring cloud based services. We have to be sure that our the PICSE Procurer's platform reflects the requirements of our stakeholders and therefore we invite you to contribute to this by taking part in our survey.
