Multiple reforms like tax invoices, medical histories and sudden emergencies can all be tracked through e-applications that run on Cloud Technology Information Access: Issues in information access, exchange & servicing can also be addressed through seamless access on cloud platforms. This includes minor changes like updating of aadhar card details to major transactions like creating a new connecting highway between two cities. Large Scale Operability: Scaling up is a major infrastructure requirement for Digital India. Through a non cloud based IT model, rapid scaling is an unfeasible and impractical solution. Cloud Technologies are the best fit for load balancing and scaling for such large scale applications. Drift in the Corporate Technologies: 21st century has acknowledged a major drift in government legacy applications and enterprise databases relying on cloud systems, for greater flexibility and easier maintenance. This has led to adopting a futuristic approach for Digital India Mission that's made effortless through Cloud Technologies. Change in Government Strategy: Not just enterprises, our Indian Government has also witnessed a change in strategy of shifting from a G2G to G2C governance mod-el. This has been unanimously made possible through cloud technology adoption. Higher Data Control: For regulatory authorities and banking institutions that require high degree of data control and confidentiality, flexible systems are neces-sary. This has been addressed only through cloud tech-nologies that offer end-to-end security through strong encryption models. Greater Mobility: Access through mobile plat-forms like digital locker is made possible through cloud systems. Individuals have to log in through their mobile number to save and access their documents. This om-ni-channel access has not only broken the barriers of using a specific device, but also en-abled access on the go. All in all Cloud has been able to not only digitize the governance system but also emerged more effective and less expensive to the government. On premise models or IT based investment proved expensive, rigid and provided minimum flexibility to scale. The drift to cloud has landed the government in over 90 percent cut in the capital investment. This nationwide cloud initiative will create trustworthy governance and a transparent system to both the public and the government. Aniketh Jain
