DoD daleks want to exterminate Oracle's Vulcan mind-meld with White House
The US Department of Defense is pushing back against criticism of its proposed $10bn winner-takes-all cloud mega-deal, dubbed JEDI.
The Pentagon this week emitted a flurry of paperwork and presentations including a slide deck [PDF] on the project and an alleged fact sheet [PDF] addressing condemnation of the IT super-contract.
The response comes as JEDI finds itself in limbo pending a review of the deal by Secretary of Defense Dr Mark Esper at the order of The White House.
In the slide deck, the Pentagon addressed claims JEDI – aka the Joint Enterprise Defense Infrastructure program – was deliberately crafted to give AWS a sweetheart deal.
The contract essentially calls for a single vendor to provide the Pentagon worldwide cloud services for a decade.
