WASHINGTON — When the dust settles, FCW reports Microsoft could be the cloud provider of choice for the Pentagon for years to come.

The Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure (JEDI) contract is a large Department of Defense (DOD) cloud computing infrastructure and platform services project.

Tech companies interested pursuing this contract included Amazon, Google, and Oracle. Earlier this calendar year, DOD recently awarded its business software contract, DEOS (Defense Enterprise Office Solutions), to GDIT, a Microsoft integrator and BDPA-DC‘s 2018 Industry Sponsor of the Year.
