E-government cloud computing proposed model: Egyptian E_Government Cloud Computing

E-government cloud computing proposed model: Egyptian E_Government Cloud Computing Cloud benefits are yet encountered by a vital difficulty; among them are security, privacy, reliability and performance. Additional important concern is the legal issues regarding the compliance with national and international regulatory framework. This paper proposes an abstract hybrid model to adapt e-government to cloud computing in Egypt that minimizes the risk associated with those concerns. The hybrid model consists of three types of cloud computing which are Intra-Cloud computing “IACC”, Extra-Cloud computing “EXCC” and Inter-Cloud computing “IECC”. The proposed model enables each of three clouds to set a number of constraints and restriction yet permits maximum integration, communication and collaboration among them. Finally, a set of recommended implementation practices and specification are suggested that ensure the risk minimization of the above concerns.
