CIRRUS:
A Cloud Assessment Tool
Cirrus is an assessment tool designed specifically for grid and utility professionals. Cirrus helps navigate the complexities of cloud integration, enhancing operational resilience and efficiency in the electric grid sector. The Cirrus framework is designed for teams considering either a transition to or a first application in the cloud. This framework offers strategic
guidance on how to prepare for, or deploy, a cloud solution responsibly.
Different electric grid systems have different data and communication service needs. Cirrus helps grid and utility professionals assess whether
such systems benefit from a move to cloud-based services.
