In this episode of the Tyler Tech Podcast, we explore how cloud technology helps governments build greater resilience, maintain continuity, and adapt to evolving risks.

Russell Gainford, chief technology officer at Tyler, joins us to discuss how the cloud delivers the scalability, flexibility, and reliability agencies need to keep critical services running — even in the face of disruption. From cybersecurity threats to natural disasters and unexpected system demands, cloud-based infrastructure empowers governments to respond quickly and recover confidently.

Throughout the conversation, Russell shares insights on the limitations of traditional on-premises environments, the growing importance of proactive risk planning, and how cloud solutions help reduce technical debt while improving operational agility. He also offers best practices for building a roadmap to resilience, including how to prioritize critical systems, plan for dependencies, and make smart investments over time.

Tune in to learn how modern cloud strategies are helping government agencies strengthen resilience, improve service delivery, and prepare for the unexpected.

This episode also highlights Digital Access and Accessibility in the Resident Experience, a new white paper exploring how public sector organizations can remove barriers and create more inclusive digital services.
