## Notice

DWP Digital manages a number of Analytics platforms on premise and in cloud (AWS/Azure) that are utilised by teams including IRIS, Service Analytics, Cyber Security and individual Digital service design teams. A lot has been learnt from their usage but more is needed to build on this investment and scale them to support the demand, standardised ways of working and the security profile. This is backed up by Analytics being recognised as one of the common reusable services in Digital's Enterprise Architecture.
