Cloud Computing in E-Government across Europe

Part 1: Information & Communication Technology-EurAsia Conference 2014, ICT-EurAsia 2014International audienceIncreasing citizens’ participation in the use of eGovernment services is one of the main goals that governments all around the world are aiming to satisfy. While the number of Internet users is increasing rapidly and the percentage of the use of ICT services follows the same increment it is obvious that governments are seeking to take advantage of the modern alternative technological solutions in order to design the next generation of eGovernment systems and services. Without any doubt one of the most advanced solution that offers many advantages both in hardware and software levels is cloud computing. This paper aims on identifying the major functional and non-functional requirements that a traditional eGovenrment system should realise for its safe migration into a cloud environment

“…Security is essential in the government sector and has to be provided on several layers, these include the network, applications and the data security (Zwattendorfer et al, 2013). Similarly, Hashizume et al (2013) say that cloud computing is a new computing model and there is uncertainty about security at different levels which include the host, the network, data and applications, for the latter there is a concern of how application security is moved to the cloud.…”

Abstract-Despite the advances in public cloud and the associated advantages governments are still reluctant to deploy sensitive data and critical systems into the public cloud. The advantages of scalability and cost are attractive for governments and the current direction for governments is to place more of their data and systems in the public cloud towards a more comprehensive government cloud solution. However, there are major concerns related to the public cloud that are especially significant to governments which include governance over data and systems, compliance and security and privacy. If these concerns are answered governments will perceive less risk and be more confident to deploy to the public cloud. Beside the technical solution of improving security, one of the solutions to this concern is an effective relationship between government and cloud service provider. This study investigates the relationship factors between government and cloud service provider and the associated cloud factor concerns to find out how they affect confidence in the public cloud, towards providing further insight into government reluctance to place sensitive data and critical systems in the public cloud. The research framework identifies the relationship factors which include risk, trust, collaboration, negotiation and reputation and identifies which cloud related factors, which include governance, compliance, security and privacy and performance and offering, are affected by these relationship factors. The study builds on previous studies that address relationship factors or cloud factors in isolation where this study considers them together as factors for the willingness to adopt the public cloud. This is achieved through a questionnaire with government officials involved in cloud adoption policy. The results reveal that although governments feel their general relationship with service providers is not a concern, there are concerns about cloud factors that are of particular relevance to government.

“…Since the 1990s, the qualitative transformation of all spheres of life of human society began [11,14], due to its transition to the information-network stage of development [10], to the sixth digital neural-network technological order. In modern conditions the latest neuro-network transformation of the structure of the world and national economies is taking place.…”

The article reveals the peculiarities of convergence of regional information spaces in the global digital neural network economy. Introduced into scientific circulation the concept of "neural network information space" (NNIC) and the characteristic of its main elements. Principles of allocation subsystem clusters NNIC. The content of the concept "convergence of information spaces" is put into circulation and disclosed. Its functional role in the process of complex NNIC convergence is revealed. The necessity of transformation of the vector of information space development for transition to NNIC information space is substantiated. Grounded approach to the definition of synergy effect from the convergence of local and regional information spaces in the integrated information space of the NNIC. It is concluded that the transition to the complex information space NNIC includes the convergence of clusters of regional information spaces, contributing to the production of new specific neural network effects.
