Confederation of Indian Industry is organizing Cloud Summit 2012: ‘Enabling the Indian Cloud Revolution’ on July 4, 2012 at Hotel Lalit, New Delhi. The theme of this summit is “Enabling the Indian Cloud Revolution”. The summit focuses on role of Government and Industry in enabling a Cloud Revolution in India and will deliberate need for a Cloud policy for India both as a user and enabler of the Cloud.

The Cloud also presents an opportunity for India’s Information Technology (IT) & IT Enabled Services (ITES) sector by opening up a new avenue of providing Cloud based services to global organizations ranging from Software as a Service (SaaS) based application services, providing remote testing and prototyping services in addition to remote application hosting services such as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS).
Cloud based services can also be leveraged by the Government to launch new e-Governance initiatives quicker and with lower overhead costs. A common Cloud platform will also enable local Governments and other public agencies to adopt e-Governance for better citizen services, without requiring the setting up of significant IT infrastructure.
While on the one hand the Cloud promises to change the way Indian businesses and Government leverage technology to their benefit, on the other it also presents significant challenges relating to security and privacy of information. A comprehensive policy for adoption of Cloud in India is thus the need of the hour. It is important for all stakeholders in India to understand the implications of this disruptive technology and harness it for the good of the nation.
The summit will bring together users, providers and experts on cloud technology and will look to work on a roadmap for enabling the growth of cloud technologies in India.
The summit will also feature the launch of the ‘CII Whitepaper on Enabling the Indian Cloud Revolution’ which firstly seeks to understand the importance of Cloud to India, secondly assess the impact of the Cloud on two critical developmental areas for India i.e Healthcare and Education, thirdly examines the role the Government should play in enabling a Cloud revolution both as a user and enabler and finally discusses suggestions on the policy framework for enabling cloud computing in India.
