STRATEGIC Service Store

A multi-cloud Orchestrator for Deploying Public Services on

the Cloud


The penetration of cloud computing in Governmental bodies (public administrations, municipalities etc) is low

The complexity of the ‘required’ applications is continuously increasing Shift from dynamic portals to collaborative

applications Diverse development stacks

Many new services tend to be even cross-border e.g. exchange of civil registry certificates exchange of personal data

Problems’ Statement


Problems’ Statement Cross-border applications generate additional technical

requirements Identity management

• Proposed Solution: usage of STORK Secure attribute exchange

• Proposed Solution: usage of SEMIRAMIS

As a result there is an increased need for a Cloud Orchestrator which will be able to: Store and instantiate complex governmental

applications (reusability) Provide proper governance (multi-IaaS environments)


How can a public body use it?


STRATEGIC Orchestrator

Overview Page provides info of

registered clouds and deployed applications



Application is configured before deployment through Service Store UI



Configuration of VM

parameters is also

available and restricted to the options

supported by the

application to be

deployed



The deployed service is

managed through the Service Store

UI


Strategic Service Store Main Parts

Packaged-Applications Repository Storage of all applications

Credential Management Component Storage and management of user credentials

Configuration Recipes Repository Storage of configuration templates for deployed

applications Configuration Framework

Configuration of Horizontal Services Governance Component

Start, Stop, Pause or Delete workloads regardless of the underlying infrastructure


What about developers?


STRATEGIC Workload Metadata Model

It defines the characteristics of a

workload and allows parameterization before

deployment


STRATEGIC Workload Metadata Model

Even security aspects can be defined at will


proposition


Governmental Bodies

Cloud-enable of existing services, and develop new cloud-based services.

Access to the STRATEGIC marketplace with a pool of existing cloud-enabled services to reuse.

Ability to use and manage public resources effectively from the STRATEGIC platform.

Freedom of choice among different infrastructures.

Tools provided for compliance with Local Government requirements.

Ability to protect the computing resources with Cloud based security solutions provided by STRATEGIC (leveraging BT Intelligent Protection & BT Secure Cloud Storage).


Citizens

End-users of the public services deployed on cloud through the STRATEGIC framework.

Comprehensively secure citizen-facing cloud applications and services across multiple cloud platforms and providers to protect them against cyber attacks (leveraging BT Intelligent Protection)

Protection of citizen data residing in the cloud (leveraging BT Secure Cloud Storage)

Data protection required by the law in the EU for authentication (leveraging Stork).

A secure- and privacy-aware mechanism of cross-border electronic information exchange (leveraging Semiramis).


Technology providers Publishing and reselling services through STRATEGIC platform and

Marketplace leveraging BT’s enterprise cloud service store capability.

Integrate their business processes into appropriate governmental processes found in STRATEGIC marketplace.
