The rapid evolution of cyber technologies demands a new concept of Network-Centric Warfare - a new construct built on the foundation of the new interactive web. The rapid advancement of information technologies and the development of cloud computing by large commercial information technology trendsetter organizations like Google, should lead the Department of Defense to ask: does cloud computing represent the future of network-centric operations and warfare for the United States military? For the Department of Defense to embrace cloud computing requires it to adopt the internet, rather than a fixed IT infrastructure, as its network backplane. The Department will be required to rapidly embrace and employ new Network-Centric concepts (referred to in this paper as Network-Centric Warfare 2.0) and address issues such as cost, military operations in a collaborative environment, empowering individuals, granting greater access to Department and Service-specific information, developing processes and procedures for new parallel and serial operations, and rapidly developing and employing new technologies to provide enhanced data fusion capabilities.
