HP Launches Helion Cloud Platform for Government
by Jeffrey Burt 
 
A brief summary: The solution builds off HP's larger efforts in the cloud, including the $1 billion being invested in R&D.

Hewlett-Packard is rolling out a private cloud offering for government agencies that is based on the Helion cloud platform the tech vendor announced three weeks ago. HP's Helion Managed Private Cloud for Public Sector is designed to give governments on all levels—federal, state and local—a managed and dedicated private cloud solution that enables them to create a shared service model across multiple departments, with the agencies essentially playing the role of IT brokers. The agencies can manage and monitor the use of resources via a Web-based portal. The technology enables the cloud platform to rapidly scale, direct services to their users and effectively control costs by letting agencies pay only for what they use.
The Helion solution—a highly automated private cloud offering that comes pre-engineered and pre-tested—also will improve the overall security for the agencies and will manage the various certification and regulatory requirements that are placed on them, according to HP officials. The offering, announced May 27, is available immediately.

    Bill Veghte, executive vice president and general manager of the HP Enterprise Group, joined the chorus of tech executives lamenting a new wariness among customers just hours after Amazon.com CTO Werner Vogels said his company had seen no impact.
