As many as 250 government departments and entities are availing the national cloud services which are being run by National Informatics Centre (NIC), Parliament was informed today.
Communications and IT Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad said the government has already embarked upon the cloud computing initiative known by the name of GI Cloud (MeghRaj), which can be utilised for delivering good governance.
"The Government of India has already set up one national cloud which is being run by NIC. As of now, more than 250 government departments and entities are availing the National Cloud services," Prasad said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha.
He further said that the government is also in the process of provisional accreditation of the cloud service offerings by private operators. End-user departments can leverage them in addition to the national cloud for e-governance solutions.
"In this regard, and RFP (request for proposal) is being finalised in consultation with the industry and is proposed to be published in due time," Prasad added.
