WASHINGTON: Google<\/a>, Oracle<\/a>, Microsoft<\/a> and Amazon<\/a> will share in the Pentagon<\/a>'s $9 billion contract to build its cloud computing network<\/a>, a year after accusations of politicization over the previously announced contract and a protracted legal battle resulted in the military starting over in its award process.

The Joint Warfighter Cloud Capability is envisioned to provide access to unclassified, secret and top-secret data to military personnel all over the globe. It is anticipated to serve as a backbone for the Pentagon's modern war operations, which will rely heavily on unmanned aircraft and space communications satellites, but will still need a way to quickly get the intelligence from those platforms to troops on the ground.

The contract will be awarded in parts, with a total estimated completion date of June 2028, the Pentagon said in a statement.

Competition is intense to snap up big corporate and government cloud contracts - awards to build global computing networks where information is stored, shared and secured over the
internet<\/a> instead of on local computer systems. The Pentagon's award is seen as one of the most coveted<\/a> because it's a stamp of approval in a market where ensuring a client's data security is important.

\"It's the most important cloud deal to come out of the Beltway,\" said analyst Daniel Ives, who monitors the cloud industry for Wedbush Securities. \"It's about the Pentagon as a reference customer. It says significant accolades about what they think about that vendor, and that's the best reference customer you could have in that world.\"

Google's involvement is a shift from 2018, when it decided not to compete in the Pentagon's bidding process because it might conflict with its ethics principles. Google employees had been vocal at the time in protesting military uses of the company's artificial intelligence technology.

Last July, the Pentagon announced it was cancelling its previous
cloud computing<\/a> award, then named JEDI. At the time, the Pentagon said that due to delays in proceeding with the contract, technology had changed to the extent that the old contract, which was awarded to Microsoft, no longer met DOD's needs.

It did not mention the legal challenges behind those delays, which had come from Amazon, the losing bidder. Amazon had questioned whether former President Donald Trump's administration had steered the contract toward Microsoft due to Trump's adversarial relationship with Amazon's chief executive officer at the time, Jeff Bezos.

In July when the cancellation was announced, the Pentagon's chief information officer, John Sherman, said it was
\"likely\"<\/a> both Amazon and Microsoft would get some portion of the business in a new award.

A report by the Pentagon's inspector general did not find evidence of improper influence, but it said it could not determine the extent of administration interactions with Pentagon decision-makers because the White House would not allow unfettered access to witnesses.

The Pentagon's cloud is also anticipated to host the military's future warfighting network, known as Joint All-Domain Command and Control, that will connect information from all the services onto one network. Previously, each service had its own tactical network and data could not be easily shared across services, which could create delays in situations where location data and trajectory, such as with a missile launch, need to be known in seconds.

华盛顿:谷歌,甲骨文,微软亚马逊会分享五角大楼价值90亿美元的合同,建造云计算网络政治化的,一年之后指责先前宣布合同和旷日持久的官司导致军方开始在其裁决过程。

联合作战人员云计算能力是提供非机密的设想,秘密和机密数据军事人员遍布世界各地。预计作为骨干五角大楼的现代战争行动,这将严重依赖于无人驾驶飞机和空间通信卫星,但是仍然需要一种方法来快速得到的情报平台地面部队。

该合同将授予的部分,总预计竣工时间2028年6月,五角大楼在一份声明中说。

竞争激烈抢购大公司和政府云合同——奖建立全球计算机网络信息存储、共享和保护互联网而不是本地计算机系统。五角大楼的奖项被认为是其中一个最令人垂涎的因为它是一个批准的邮票市场,确保客户的数据安全是很重要的。

“这是最重要的云的环城公路,”分析师Daniel Ives说谁监视云Wedbush证券行业。“这是关于五角大楼客户作为参考。它说什么重要的赞誉他们考虑供应商,这就是最好的参考客户你可以在那个世界。”

从2018年Google的参与是一个转变,当它决定不参加五角大楼的投标过程,因为这可能会与道德冲突的原则。谷歌员工一直直言不讳地在抗议军事使用的人工智能技术。

去年7月,五角大楼宣布取消先前云计算奖,然后叫绝地。当时,五角大楼表示,由于延迟继续合同,技术已经改变了的旧合同,授予微软,不再满足国防部的需要。

它没有提到这些延迟背后的法律挑战,来自亚马逊,出价失去的人。亚马逊已经质疑前总统唐纳德·特朗普的政府通过合同导向微软由于特朗普与亚马逊的首席执行官的敌对关系,杰夫·贝佐斯。

7月宣布取消时,五角大楼的首席信息官约翰·谢尔曼说“可能”亚马逊和微软都将得到一部分的业务在一个新的奖项。

五角大楼的一份报告检察长没有发现不当影响的证据,但它表示,它无法确定政府相互作用的程度与五角大楼决策者因为白宫不会允许自由进入证人。

五角大楼的云也预期举办军事的未来作战网络,称为联合所有域的指挥和控制,将连接信息到一个网络的服务。以前,每个服务都有自己的战术网络和数据可能不容易跨服务共享,这可能会造成延迟位置数据和轨道的情况下,如导弹发射,需要在秒。
