Sussex Countyâs development in Server and Desktop Virtualization has created a Private Cloud Computing model that can distribute technology services to the supporting community. By analyzing our business services, or applications and then modify them to enhance efficiently and productivity. This requires more than a centric view of the organization. By looking at the relationships of all the business processes thatâs encompassing local government organizations. This creates opportunities to boost performance, increase innovation, and a better return on investment. There are applications and services that Sussex County does not provide but local governing municipalities do therefor municipal services can be shared amongst other municipalities. Ultimately having a vertical network infrastructure that supports a wider diameter of services, will develop a seamless data network between the county, the municipalities and the citizens of Sussex County. This is accomplished through adopting collaborative innovation, rather than focusing solely on one divisionâs value to the organization. Itâs about helping our communities better integrate, access, and analyze information more efficiently. For a successful interlocal service, reality must take precedence over public relations, for human nature cannot be fooled. These considerations will lead to newly emerging applications that can benefit from these principles and techniques.
