Six key considerations for procuring cloud-based contact center solutions in the public sector
The shift to cloud-based Contact Center as a Service (CCaaS) solutions offers significant opportunities for public sector organizations to transform their operations, reduce costs, and improve citizen services. Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides innovative cloud technologies like Amazon Connect that can help organizations achieve these goals. However, traditional procurement approaches may not be well-suited for acquiring these modern cloud technologies. To help organizations navigate this transition, we’ve identified six key considerations when procuring a CCaaS solution like Amazon Connect.
Proactive strategies for cyber resilience and business continuity on AWS
AWS recommends that organizations prepare to recover workloads in case of cybersecurity incidents or business continuity events such as technical or natural disasters.
