Transforming parliaments: Cloud – Implementing a solution based on a cloud environment

Summary

14.30 CEST (Geneva)

The Transforming parliaments webinar series promotes peer exchange amongst senior parliamentary staff (including ICT directors, CIOs and others) on innovation and technology trends that are driving the digital transformation in parliaments.

This webinar analyses why and how an increasing number of parliaments are storing their documents in the cloud. The World e-Parliament Report 2020 observed a shift since 2016 from local storage, to shared in-house storage and increasingly to cloud-based solutions. Nevertheless, there remain barriers to cloud storage, in terms of the adequacy of infrastructure and support and such other issues as security, data sovereignty and the physical jurisdiction of data servers.

The webinar series is part of the ongoing exchange of good practices since the 2021 virtual World e-Parliament Conference. It is organized by European Parliament and the Chamber of Deputies of Brazil in their capacity as hosts of the IT Governance hub and the Open Data hub in the IPU’s Centre for Innovation in Parliament. The first webinar series was first held in October and November 2021 (see playlist).

This webinar will be held in English.
