Abstract
At the moment Cloud Computing is an important model to transfer applications, data and services. Companies, Government and private people are using the cloud for a lot of services such as backup or data storage. The Government uses a particular approach to move their applications into the cloud. For this reason the United State (US), has published more documents that describe these procedures. The European Union (EU) uses another approach but the topic is in continuous evolution. To understand the Federal Cloud Computing strategy in the US and in the EU, it is important to know some Federal documents published by NIST, ENISA, CIO Council, etc.
