# Intelligence Community Cloud Architecture **Domain:** Austin Research / Infrastructure **Doc Type:** Research entity **Source basis:** Supplied research cluster with linked references; see the [[wiki/Austin Research Evidence Map|evidence map]] for verification scope. The **Intelligence Community Cloud Architecture** is the shared computing layer developed through [[wiki/IC ITE|IC ITE]] and subsequent strategies. The supplied IC article distinguishes CIA’s Commercial Cloud Services (C2S), NSA’s IC-GovCloud, and the later multi-provider Commercial Cloud Enterprise (C2E). The 2019 [[wiki/Office of the Director of National Intelligence|ODNI]] strategy describes interoperability across security fabrics and availability toward remote and disconnected mission environments. Compute, storage, identity, data, and applications must remain usable across those boundaries for a distributed analytical loop to function. The corpus’s durable object is the interface architecture, which can persist as vendors and hardware change. Availability goals, awarded capacity, actual deployment, and successful mission use should be identified separately. ## Connected entries [[wiki/IC ITE|IC ITE]] · [[wiki/Machine-Executable Policy|Machine-Executable Policy]] · [[wiki/Unified Identity Attribute Set|Unified Identity Attribute Set]] · [[wiki/Sensor-to-Action Loop|Sensor-to-Action Loop]] · [[wiki/Saturn Arch|Saturn Arch]] · [[wiki/Computational Process|Computational Process]] · [[wiki/UT Austin–Amazon Science Hub|UT Austin–Amazon Science Hub]] ## Sources and corpus context - [[research/The Austin Executable Loop|The Austin Executable Loop — master document]] - [[research/IC ITE - Intelligence Community Information Technology Enterprise|IC ITE - Intelligence Community Information Technology Enterprise]] - [Cloud Computing in the Intelligence Community — Strategic Plan](https://www.odni.gov/files/documents/CIO/Cloud_Computing_Strategy.pdf) - [Vision for the IC Information Environment — May 2024](https://www.odni.gov/files/documents/CIO/IC-IT-Roadmap-Vision-For-the-IC-Info-Environment-May2024.pdf) **Cluster:** [[wiki/Austin Executable Loop|Austin Executable Loop]] · [[wiki/Austin Research Evidence Map|Austin Research Evidence Map]]
