In Russia, the government has begun preparing for a shortage of computing power that could lead to problems in the operation of government information systems. It is reported by "Kommersant" with reference to sources.

According to the publication, on March 9, the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media held a meeting with companies operating a significant amount of computing power, including Sberbank, MTS, Oxigen, Rostelecom, Atom-Data (a structure of Rosatom ), Croc and Yandex.

During the meeting, the Ministry of Digital Development and companies discussed the prospect of a shortage of data storage systems and servers for the operation of state information systems.

The source of the newspaper in the government said that they are now carrying out an inventory of computing equipment of data centers that ensure the operation of critical systems. Capacity shortages may occur within two months, he noted, in which case the authorities intend to rent free capacity from commercial data processing centers (DPCs).
