County Commissioners Approve Cloud Storage

An interlocal agreement with another agency was also recommended.

Commissioners on Monday turned to the cloud to replace an aging server for data storage.

NetData representative Bill Moser told the Palo Pinto Commissioners Court the agreement to upload county data to store it for backup must be done with a law enforcement agency.

In this case, the company recommended an interlocal agreement with two Texas departments — the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office and the Sulphur Springs Police Department.

The annual cost will be $27,900 for the first year. The expense is in this year’s budget after NetData, the county’s information technology consulting firm, told commissioners last year their main server was unlikely to make it to the new year.
