Cloud adoption across government has moved beyond isolated migrations and pilot programs. Today, agencies are taking a whole-of-government approach to cloud computing. They’re aligning policy, security, acquisition and operations to modernize IT environments and deliver better services at scale.
Federal News Network’s Cloud Exchange 2026 brings together senior government leaders, technologists and industry experts to examine how agencies are using cloud services to modernize infrastructure, strengthen security and expand mission capabilities across the enterprise.
As agencies face increasing demands for resilience, interoperability and speed, cloud has become a foundational infrastructure capability and platform for modernization —supporting everything from zero trust architectures and data analytics to application modernization and digital service delivery.
What we’ll explore
At Cloud Exchange 2026, speakers will share practical insight into how agencies are:
- Using cloud services to reimagine legacy systems and improve operational efficiency
- Strengthening cybersecurity through shared services, zero trust and continuous monitoring
- Expanding digital services to better serve the public and internal users
- Aligning cloud strategy with federal policy, acquisition reform and workforce readiness
- Scaling cloud adoption across programs while managing cost, risk and performance
Through in-depth conversations led by Federal News Network journalists, this exchange will highlight real-world programs, lessons learned and emerging best practices from across government.
Whether you are shaping cloud policy, leading IT modernization efforts or are responsible for delivering secure, reliable services, this virtual event will offer timely insights into how agencies are moving from cloud adoption to cloud optimization together.
