The General Services Administration has successfully migrated 17,000 e-mail users to Google Apps for Government, a secure cloud-based e-mail and collaboration platform, according to GSA Administrator Martha Johnson.
“It’s official! The U.S. General Services Administration is the first federal agency to successfully migrate its employees to a cloud-based e-mail service using Google Apps for Government,” Johnson wrote in a blog.
The move is the first step in GSA’s effort to provide cloud e-mail as a service option to other federal agencies, Johnson noted.
