Open Data : le gouvernement promet travailler à une plus grande ouverture pour 2013 L’Open Data sera bien au coeur de la feuille de route numérique du gouvernement Ayrault, a confirmé Etalab en publiant elle-aussi ses intentions pour 2013. Une feuille de route de la donnée publique qui doit, rappelons-le, faire entrer l’Open Data dans sa « deuxième phase », avait indiqué Henri Verdier, à la tête d’Etalab, en amont de l’agenda gouvernemental. Laissant ainsi entrevoir que les politiques aujourd’hui en place ainsi que les (maigres ?) initiatives ne formaient qu’un commencement - la phase 1. Les déclarations de bonnes intentions s’étaient par ailleurs multipliées chez les membres du gouvernement. Irish Govt urged to open its data to citizens to prove accountability - Digital 21 - Digital 21 The Irish Government has been called upon to follow US President Barack Obama’s lead and join the Open Government Partnership to drive transparency and innovation in Ireland. It would also send out a strong signal about its intentions towards accountability to citizens, an independent TD has said. The Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a new international initiative aimed at securing concrete commitments from governments to promote transparency, increase civic participation, fight corruption, and harness new technologies to make government more open, effective, and accountable.

The Road to Larissa How To Build A Government Cloud - Government - Cloud/SaaS - As federal agencies race to meet OMB's 'cloud first' mandate, they must adapt the cloud model to the idiosyncrasies of government. The federal government’s cloud computing strategy reached a milestone recently when the Department of Homeland Security became the first federal agency to sign up for infrastructure as a service through the General Services Administration. But the path there wasn’t fast or easy, or anything like what was first envisioned. Rewind to September 2009, when Vivek Kundra, the federal CIO at the time, announced the launch of Apps.gov, a GSA-operated site that would serve as an apps store where agencies could subscribe to a range of cloud services with point-and-click ease.

US: Vivek Kundra "Streaming at 1:00: In the Cloud" Posted by Vivek Kundra on September 15, 2009 at 12:09 PM EDT Today, I am excited to announce that we have launched Apps.gov to help continue the President’s initiative to lower the cost of government operations while driving innovation within government. I'll be discussing this in a speech at the NASA Ames Research Center at 1:00 EDT - watch the speech live here [UPDATE: This event has now concluded]. Apps.gov is an online storefront for federal agencies to quickly browse and purchase cloud-based IT services, for productivity, collaboration, and efficiency.

CIO Council Cheaper processors, faster networks, and the rise of mobile devices are driving innovation faster than ever before. Cloud computing is a manifestation and core enabler of this transformation. Just as the Internet has led to the creation of new business models unfathomable 20 years ago, cloud computing will disrupt and reshape entire industries in unforeseen ways. The Federal Government’s responsibility is to achieve the significant cost, agility and innovation benefits of cloud computing as quickly as possible. The Government’s current IT environment is characterized by low asset utilization, a fragmented demand for resources, duplicative systems, environments which are difficult to manage, and long procurement lead times. These inefficiencies negatively impact the Federal Government’s ability to serve the American public.

A good example is today's announcement about apps.gov. In conversations with Vivek and Casey, I am struck every time by how much their observations that Federal CIOs are focused too much on infrastructure issues are similar to the observations within Amazon a number of years ago that motivated us to develop the AWS Infrastructure services.
