A preliminary study was conducted through interviews with officials from Malaysian Administrative Modernization and Management Planning Unit (MAMPU) and telephone interviews with IT officers of the agencies involved. The findings revealed that about 61 public agencies are using 1GovCloud and 15 of them have shown mixed use between 1GovCloud and regular physical data centers.
