TRANSCRIPT
GOVERNMENTCLOUD PLATFORM
1Fast and easy provisioning of resources and
services, hugely reducing the overhead for
rolling out new or migrating existing e-services.
2Common IT asset management across the
whole public sector entities.
3Improved security for the government's IT
environment and streamlined security
audits.
4On-the-fly scalability of the virtual
infrastructure to respond to changing
requirements.
5Performance and stability gains through
the usage of state-of-the-art
infrastructure.
6Higher sustainability through open
source solutions that help to eliminate
the single vendor lock-in.
OpenNode Government Cloud Platform (GCP) is a state-of-the-art holistic solution for creating a hybrid
cloud for the public sector services. It is targeted for operations by an IT authority and can scale from a
department level to a cross-national one. Successful implementation of the government cloud means
addressing needs of multiple stakeholders. GCP is a combination of policies, procedures and technology
aimed at providing the customers with the best fit for their business requirements.
7Real-time overview of IT expenses,
grouped by the projects and services
consumed.
OpenNode Government Cloud Platform is built on the pillars of open source, best practices and security.
Once implemented, it will deliver a customer-oriented self-service for Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS),
Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions backed by the operational
support from the government's IT authority, leading to a number of benefits:

OpenNode Government Cloud Platform is based on modular and open architecture, encouraging
multi-vendor cooperation and delivering open source implementation for key components.
OpenNode GCP architecture includes the following core modules:
1A self-service portal for the technical and
administrative personnel of the public sector,
including an integrated AppStore for
distributing IaaS/PaaS/SaaS services, as well
as consultancy and architecture review.
2OpenNode GCP API for integration with
various procurement, monitoring and
accounting systems.

monitoring and alerting, accounting,
log aggregation, configuration

systems.
Multi-cloud IaaS, PaaS and distributed
object storage for deployments that differ
in technology, location and service-level
agreements.

Government cloud solution greatly improves efficiency of IT operations and leads to a more transparent
and optimal cost structure. It is supported by legislation and can integrate with central identity
provisioning systems. To assure successful implementation of the solution, an agile and evolving
approach is suggested. It allows to mitigate the risks related to process integration and adaptation of
policies. Example principles for achieving a successful implementation include:
1Start with a minimal pilot IaaS deployment for
collecting early customer feedback.
2In the pilot phase, migrate at least 2 real
applications to the cloud, for validating the
cloud migration experience.
3Adapt existing or devise new governmental
cloud policies, processes and requirements,
based on the feedback collected from the
pilot phase.
4Launch a production-ready IaaS cloud
to satisfy legacy workloads.
5Follow the IaaS cloud up with PaaS and
SaaS clouds, introducing cloud-native
application design and value-added
services.
6Create a partner ecosystem and develop
local knowledge base for further cloud
migration and adaptation.
IMPLEMENTATION
OpenNode has been offering cloud architecture consultancy and turn-key cloud
system implementation services since 2011. We have built private and hybrid clouds
for the customers in Estonia, Oman, Russia and Sweden, including Oman Government
Cloud, which earned the “Best Virtualization Solution Implementation Award” for the
Africa, Asia and Middle East region at GITEX 2014.
