9. In Technical Terms
•I’m a Webservice –
•Sitting between the Technical Teams and the
Business Teams, translating and relating
between them..
•With Plenty of SOAP and REST....
Turn that noise off, can’t you see I’m busy…
keep your silly ideas to yourself - I’ve got a
job to do!
10. I live in Naas…
• NAAS
– Network as a Service
• Used to be a Nice place to shop!
13. Open Government?
“If people don’t know what you’re doing, they
don’t know what you’re doing wrong”
“Jim Hacker”
Open Government (I980)
14. Cloud is forcing Change
With or Without the Owners / Shareholders
15.
16. So far ICT has not fundamentally
changed government
• 1990s: lCT expected
to make government
more transparent,
efficient and user
oriented
• 2005+: disillusion as
bureaucracy still in
existence
• Can Cloud Help?
Jane E. Fountain – Gov 1.0 – Just Replicating the Silos on the Internet
19. Why have we not done so well?
It is unfortunate that the first 3
letters of eGovernment are…
20.
21. Security is changing
• Security has to be appropriate
• Security has to be measured
• Can have things so secure that they are
unusable.

25. CIO Priorities…

26. What is Cloud
• Vendors – Whatever you want / Need it to
be…
• Its too Vague –
• Talking about Cloud Security – when Cloud is
defined as everything you ever wished for…
27. Moving to the Cloud?
1. Leaving your apartment!
2. Moving your Data
28. Barriers
Psychological Barriers
Platform Lock-In, Dependence, Governance
Security
Compliance
Costs
Application Architecture
How do we design applications lo take advantage of the cloud?
Grow and shnnk on-demand (scalability)
Data affinity
Portability
Efficiency
Performance
Fault-tolerance and self-healing
29.
30. Positives
Scale
Cost
CAPEX
OPEX
Advance Architecture
Agility
Cost - Clouds are renowned for being dirt cheap
for storage and burst-y processing.
Elasticity - Growth and shrinkage
31.
32. Negatives
Security & Privacy
. Conflicts with international laws?
Where is my Data - Is it safe?
For Whom and at what level?
Regulatory compliance:
Interoperability
Lack of control
Standardisation
SLA ( Model T Ford)
34. Challenges
Organisational barriers (Silo mentality)
Reliability (service outage)
Definition of SLAs (Service Level Agreement)
Service management, Monitoring
Customisation / Integration with other
applications
35. If you are going to do it..
1. Understand the options and technologies
2. Have a look at what you do..
3. If its complex inside the firewall…Rationalize
infrastructure & applications
4. leverage SOA for applications, appropriate
standards, governance
5. Identify the costs per user - Compare costs with
internal hosting.
6. Start with Open Data… no arguments here….
48. What is Cloud?
DON’T WORRY, TRUST US, WE HAVE IT ALL UNDER
CONTROL
49. What has Cloud ever done for us?
Apart from Scale, Speed, Agility, Low Cost,
Enterprise Mapping, Open Data, Standards, Google, API’s,
Open Street Maps, Map Servers,
GIS - More than just Location, Spatial Analysis and wider adoption now possible

51. Why this is so compelling:
It’s a disruptive technology
• Does it meet
enterprise needs
• Easy to control
• SLA / Support
• Good enough for
startups and SME
• “Cheap” compute
• Pilot and trial…

56. G Cloud – UK…
• Distributed Cloud
• Work like a Network
• Everyone
• Can See
• Can Play
• Can Add Value (Within
Limits)
• Shared Data Centres
• App Store
• Issues –
• Support
• Code Base
• Open Source Push
• My View – 3 Models
• Car Boot Sale
• Charity Shop
• Department Store
57.
58. Smart Cities
Gartner: “networked sensors in everything we own will form a
new Web (the Internet of Things). But it will only be of value if
the ‘terabyte torrent’ of data it generates could be collected,
analysed and interpreted”
… and .. just because we can….
64. BIG DATA?
Massive network of services: water, sewage, drains …
Need to know asset location for planning and maintenance
Many databases, varying accuracy and provenance
Context
Ongoing street openings p.a.
Safety!
75. Tourism
• History
• Old Maps
• Business Interests
• Tourist Sites
76. Traffic
• Maps
• Plan a Route
• Feedback
• GPS
• Accidents
• Salt
• Weather alert
77. Roadworks
• Link to System – Online
Road Works Control
(OLRWC)
• License for Road
Opening
• Cost of Reinstatement
(Local Authority Usage)
• License for any Street
usage.
78. Planning Applications
• View Applications
• Get notified of Changes
• Make Comments
• Make a Submission
• Notify Local Authority
of Issues?
79. Check the Register
• Map the Polling Stations
• Where is the Nearest
• Map the Route
• Check the Register
80. Blue Flag Beaches
• Location
• Nearest
• Water Quality
• History
• Tides
• Weather
• Things to do…
81. Sports
• What is available now
• How do I get there
• What if I have to Cancel
• Pay for it now
93. What do Clouds currently not do?
• Anything subject to compliancy
– Includes PCI-compliant applications
• Apps that call back to performance sensitive
services in your data centre
• Apps that require tight coupling between
instances
• Sensitive Data
• Large applications that don’t fit inside VMs
Is there anything they can’t do?
94. Cloud conclusions
• Government cannot ignore cloud
• Public Cloud and Big Data
• Public Cloud and Open Data
• SLA needs to be more Open
• Future is Cloudy
