Overview

May 19

After migrating to the cloud, the Seattle Police Department was able to enhance operations and make improvements to emergency response and criminal investigations. Like many departments, the Seattle Police Department had multiple disparate data sources. Cloud computing equips institutions with agility and scalability, providing the ability to store and analyze data, powering innovation.
