The democratization of cloud knowledge/competency is a critically important component to achieving the scale of success that the Air Force and more broadly the Department of Defense need and deserve from their Digital Transformation journey.

> Now there are two ways we can approach Cloud One: great for government or just plain great. I am tired of great for government: tired of disaggregated IT systems with undiscovered data, tired of AWOL analytics and machine learning, tired of the software development ramp being hard, and tired of trailing commercial technology power curves in general. I want to be just plain great - a true digital Air Force capable of connecting, sharing, and learning across all domains - but to get there, we must sync on the Cloud One vision and begin migration.
