Abstract

In current era, the involvement of technologies like virtualization, consolidation and cloud computing, and adoption of free and open source software in designing and deploying e-governance that can reduce the total cost associated with and hence the financial burden abide by the state and central governments. The success of any e-governance project depends upon its utilization by the intended group and so there accessibility needs to be enhanced drastically by reengineered framework. Here, we design an Improved Service Delivery and Cost Effective Framework for e-Governance that will be useful for success of e-governance projects and the delivery mechanism in India by using free and open access software for development and deployment of e-governance applications, virtualization and consolidation techniques for management of e-services and cloud computing for enhancing the accessibility of services.
