ENHANCING AVAILABILITY OF GOVERNMENT DATA CENTER SYSTEM (GIDC NEPAL)

In this modern technological age, the world is moving towards online electronic system that makes people convenient and fast to access services online. The GIDC (Government Integrated Data Center) plays vital role in providing e-government services to the public. The transformation from manual system to the online system of government services has been increasing. The purpose of this research is to enhance availability of GIDC system so that a single point of failure cannot affect the e-government services. E-government service might be unavailable or disturbed due to unexpected events such as hardware failure, network connection disruption, corrupted database, natural disaster such as earthquake, fire, flood, etc. in the GIDC. We cannot stop natural disaster but we can minimize the damage. We can also improve availability of GIDC system during natural disaster by changing the design of GIDC system architecture. So, the purpose of this study is also to enhance availability of GIDC system of Nepal even if natural disaster occurs.
