+                To efficiently process ever-growing amounts of data, public
+                health jurisdictions need to integrate modern digital services —
+                like cloud hosting — into their data environment. With cloud
+                hosting, jurisdictions can more flexibly acquire the computing
+                infrastructure they need to modernize aging data systems or add
+                new data management capabilities as needs evolve. It can also
+                help them scale their infrastructure to handle the high volumes
+                and intermittent flow of public health data, especially during a
+                public health crisis.
+              </span>
+              <span>
+                While many jurisdictions recognize the need for transitioning to
+                a robust and secure cloud environment, they often face obstacles
+                to adoption. For example, they may lack the internal technical
+                capacity to successfully migrate their data infrastructure to
+                the cloud. Not only that, hosting cloud infrastructure isn't
+                free. Neither is the cost of maintaining these systems.
+                Maintenance requires dedicated IT personnel and consistent
+                funding, which aren't always available. As a result, public
+                health jurisdictions that want to leverage cloud hosting to
+                scale and upgrade their data systems with modern software
+                solutions are often stuck without the means to do so.

+                The DIBBs team is working to enable public health jurisdictions
+                with modern cloud hosting infrastructure through CDC's centrally
+                hosted Azure cloud environment. By leveraging this CDC-hosted
+                cloud environment, jurisdictions can access the DIBBs portfolio
+                of products to modernize their data systems without the cost and
+                maintenance burdens of having to host their own cloud
+                infrastructure locally. CDC's cloud environment follows the same
+                security and privacy policies as other widely used, externally
+                facing CDC applications like SimpleReport and ReportStream.
+                Onboarding, updates, and scaling are quick and free.
+              </span>
+              <span>
+                While hosting with CDC's cloud infrastructure offers a range of
+                benefits (e.g., lower costs, fewer maintenance burdens), some
+                jurisdictions face obstacles with regulatory compliance and data
+                security. These jurisdictions may prefer a hybrid approach,
+                leveraging aspects of a centrally hosted cloud environment while
+                maintaining other parts of their data infrastructure in a
+                self-hosted environment. With a hybrid approach, jurisdictions
+                can choose to manage how their data is fed to the
+                centrally-hosted environment for processing — without CDC
+                hosting or retaining the data. To enable these more flexible,
+                hybrid options for hosting DIBBs infrastructure, we've leveraged
+                Octopus Deploy, an industry-renowned deployment tool, that
+                allows us to treat each jurisdiction with the individuality it
+                needs. For example, our software can go directly to
+                jurisdictions with the proper permission and legal agreements,
+                without the need for their IT departments to manually install
+                updates.
+              </span>
+              <span>
+                For jurisdictions who would like full control over their
+                infrastructure and to host DIBBs services directly, we've also
+                created a series of Terraform templates. These templates, which
+                are available in our open-source repository, allow DevOps
+                personnel at a jurisdiction to rapidly assemble a fresh cloud
+                infrastructure from prewritten modules. We've also provided
+                searchable documentation to make the process even easier. By
+                meeting jurisdictions where they're at from a compliance or data
+                security standpoint, our DIBBs hosting options move them a step
+                closer to adopting cloud technology (either in their own cloud
+                environment or in the centrally hosted CDC environment).
+                Ultimately, by providing flexible and accessible options for
+                cloud hosting, we hope to enable resource-constrained
+                jurisdictions with the tools to build modern, scalable disease
+                surveillance infrastructure that can be used for both daily and
+                emergent public health action.
