Gen. Dennis Crall, chief information officer for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Wednesday at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/show-reporter\/c4isrnet-conference\/\" target=\"_blank\">C4ISRNET Conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf you think about the challenge we have in AI, in amalgamating data and sharing data, what it means to take processing and move that processing requirement to the tactical edge, without a cloud none of this\u201d is possible, Crall said at the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The trouble is that a pending court case has delayed for more than a year the Pentagon\u2019s landmark contract for the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure cloud, worth up to $10 billion over 10 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Delivering the ability to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/it-networks\/2020\/10\/08\/how-the-pentagons-data-strategy-enables-joint-all-domain-operations\/\" target=\"_blank\">process data<\/a> at the tactical edge and develop artificial intelligence tools has been the Pentagon\u2019s core <a href=\"https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/govcon\/contracting\/2019\/10\/30\/so-what-problems-does-jedi-solve-really\/\" target=\"_blank\">justification for JEDI<\/a> since the project\u2019s outset. The contract went to Microsoft in October 2019, but a court challenge by Amazon Web Services prevents the DoD and Microsoft from building the JEDI cloud. Cloud computing would also help the joint force develop its DevSecOps environment to build and deliver software to war fighters faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/battlefield-tech\/it-networks-battlefield-tech\/2021\/01\/27\/getting-away-from-anything-goes-military-leaders-set-data-standards-for-joint-war-fighting\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"209\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/abms-2.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Getting away from \u2018anything goes\u2019: Military leaders set data standards for joint war fighting<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The CIO\/J-6 of the Joint Chiefs of Staff called top data leaders to Aberdeen Proving Ground to set data standards and boost cooperation on Joint All-Domain Command and Control.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No matter what happens with the JEDI cloud, the Pentagon has stressed that it needs an enterprise cloud computing capability. And the department must make sure it is set up to accommodate and take advantage of an enterprise cloud once it\u2019s available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cJust because you\u2019ve established the environment doesn\u2019t mean you have the sharing agreements and doesn\u2019t necessarily mean you have the security apparatus in place to ensure the data is safe,\u201d Crall said. \u201cSo we\u2019ve got we\u2019ve got a lot of homework to do outside of just the establishment of this, and the clouds got to be a cloud built for DoD.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JADC2\u2032s unique requirements mean that the department will have specific cloud requirements for an enterprise cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNot all clouds function the same.
