Salesforce is set to lobby the Federal Government in order to relieve concerns regulators have over cloud computing.

Daniel Burton, senior vice president of global public policy at the company, told ITNews.com.au that he is set to visit Canberra.

"We will be having a serious engagement with the Australian Government about cloud computing," Burton said.

"Governments realise that international data flows are key to productivity, performance, competitiveness and price advantages. If you start shutting those down you are really hamstringing the economy."
