Government of Uttarakhand: Customer story key benefits
99.99% Data Center Uptime
24/7 connectivity
Citizens benefit with reliable e-governance
The Government of Uttarakhand wanted to build a digital platform—an e-governance system—to enable efficient management and facilitation of government services, make public services easily accessible to its people, connect the citizens with government bodies and allow a transparent and seamless exchange of information between them.
By utilising the capability of Information Technology & Communications (ICT), we are enabled to integrate technology into governmental processes and across various user segments and create an efficient, cost-effective, service-oriented ecosystem.
To incorporate the e-governance mode and meet the needs of the citizens of Uttarakhand, the state was seeking to build a Data Centre, which will streamline data sharing and gathering and provide a strong support to the platform in terms of technology infrastructure.
Considering their IT needs, their plans to grow in the next two to three years and expand the State Data Centre to host the applications for Dehradun Smart City—Schneider Electric presented its EcoStruxure™ Solutions to build the Uttarakhand State Data Centre and we designed the complete infrastructure.
