Current State of Cloud Computing in the World

Emerging Cloud Platforms • Morgan Stanley has also identified Cloud computing as one of the

prominent technology trends.

• Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) provides a virtual computing environment that enables a user to run Linux-based applications.

• Google App Engine also supports APIs for the data store, Google Accounts, URL fetch, image manipulation, and email services.

• Google App Engine is free to use with up to 500MB of storage and about 5 million page views per month.

• Microsoft Live Mesh aims to provide a centralized location for a user to store applications and data

• Sun network.com (Sun Grid) enables the user to run Solaris OS, Java, C, C++, and FORTRAN based applications.

• “$160- billion addressable market opportunity

SWOT Analysis

Strengths

Commercial success-stories.

Selling products & telecommunications

Strong telecommunication industry

On-going research projects and open source technologies.

Strong synergies between research and industry

Weaknesses

Few resource infrastructures available in Europe

Research timelines vs. fast moving markets.

Subsidiaries and fragmentation of key industries.

No platform to find / select cloud providers.

SWOT Analysis

Opportunities

Growing interest from both industry and academia in cloud technologies

Strong experience and involvement in

standardization efforts

Existing infrastructures with strong resources and in particular with strong

Threats

Dependency on external (non-European)providers

Technological impact / development

Investment/economic benefit asymmetry

Lacking IaaS provider(s)

High investment and funding required to build up infrastructure

E-GOVERNANCE IN BANGLADESH USING CLOUD COMPUTING

CLOUD ERP –A Future Solution for Bangladeshi Enterprise

CLOUD ERP •A revolutionary approach to deploy an ERP solution • flexible, adaptable, scalable, efficient and affordable • Successful to deliver business critical data

Potential of Cloud Computing for SMEs in Bangladesh

• According to ISPAB

• two huge cost hurdles that an SME faces

• PC hardware

• PC Software

• the necessity for acquiring licensed copies of popular software

Prospects of Cloud Computing in Bangladesh

IMPLEMENTING E-GOVERNANCE IN BANGLADESH USING CLOUD COMPUTING TECHNOLOGY

Challenges for Cloud Computing in Bangladesh

I. Security concern

II. Concern over Availability and Business Functionality

III. Lack of confidence on the cloud technology

Factors limiting customer reach

Security concern

Legislative obligations Privacy laws

Policies Audit

Law and Policy

Security concern

Vendor monitoring Client monitoring

Data Ownership Technical control

Monitoring and Control

Security concern

Encryption Secure gateway

environment

Physical security products and devices

Separate client firm’s data from other customers

Security Measures

• Business criticality of data or functionality

• Vendor’s business continuity and disaster recovery plan

• Data backup plan

• Network connectivity to the cloud

• Vendor’s guarantee of availability

Concern over Availability and Business Functionality

• Data integrity and availability

• Data restoration

• Scalability

• Changing vendor

• Impact of outages

Concern over Availability and Business Functionality

Lack of confidence on the Cloud Technology

Factor Point of Concern

Vendor’s gateway Is it certified?

Client firm’s identity and access management system

Does vendor support?

Vendor’s procurement process for software and hardware

Is it trustworthy?

Using the vendor’s cloud Does it weaken client firm’s network security?

Storage media storing data at its end of life

Will it be properly sanitized?

Constantly growing infrastructure promises a bright future

Reliability

Affordability

Government Regulations In Bangladesh no legal frame work

Need for policies on

• Rights & responsibilities

• Data protection

• Liability

Recommendations

• Infrastructure Improvement

• Telecommunication upgrade

• 3G Needed

• Laws regarding cyber crime

• Government incentives

• Reliability to the potential customers.
