Talking point: The four firms say they’re offering the federal government a homemade alternative to foreign cloud services, governed by foreign laws—Aptum and ThinkOn are based in Toronto, while eStruxture and Hypertec hail from Montreal. Departments buy a lot of their processing power and information storage from U.S. giants like Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Oracle.
