An Analysis of likely Role of Cloud Computing in E-Governance (A roadmap toward Government-electronic-Cloud (G-e-C))

Present scenario in the computing world and the fast changing communication technologies giving us the hint that in near future there will be a change in the way we do computation today. As mobile communication and Internet has become our 24 hours need and today we are living in the era of Facebook, YouTube, Google search, twitter and Skype etc. Social networking is becoming a big tool to reach the masses faster and in larger scale. Many Governments are using electronic medium to reach their citizens for better, safer, convenient and corruption less governance. The requirement for large scale computing and to reach the large population faster is becoming a challenge to the governments. The concept of cloud computing is slowly –slowly creating a new innovation in the way Information Technology is being proposed to be used and processed. The concept of cloud computing has been envisaged by the various governments across the globe for playing big role in implementing e-governance projects. In this paper I am making an analysis of likely role of cloud computing in e-governance for which I will give new name G-e-C (Government-electronic-Cloud).
