How to run a country with a small scattered
population, tiny economy and no natural
resources?
!
!
For the past 20 years, Estonia has chosen
focusing on e-government
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
E-government problem statement
" A need to provide increasingly complex services in an
increasingly complex world
"
Systematic development of functional architecture requires a
structured understanding of the technical architecture
" Impact of e-government on democracy
"
Predicting emergence assumes a well-developed understanding of
the technical architecture
" Cost-reduction without damaging business alignment
"
Thoughtful consolidation of services is a platform problem that
assumes a robust technical architecture

Architecture of an architecture framework
!
!


What does a framework for describing
technical architecture look like in a loosely
coupled organization?
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Meta-architecture. Function 

"
Provide a holistic view covering the entire
system in question
"
Apply in a wide variety of international settings
"
Have a right level of abstraction allowing for
addition or removal of detail as need be
"
Be usable as a communication tool for non-
technical decision-makers
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Meta-architecture. Concept
" How to relate the technical architecture to an
unknown functional architecture?
"
The framework must be compatible with a wide range of differences
between countries and be able to respond to democratic change
" Establish a set of defining functional issues which the
technical decisions depend on
" Three main axes to focus the questions
"
Centralization. How centralized is the system in question?
"
Privacy & security. What are the relevant security- and privacy
policies?
"
Diversity. What is the level of diversity in the solution space?

Electronic identity
Citizens/Officials/Enterprises
Delivery channels
Integration
Infrastructure
Denoting the main focus of
the framework.
The layers used to split the
underlying architecture into
manageable, technologically
uniform parts. 



Agencies as containers for
the individual information
systems.

The e-governance technical architecture
framework
!
!


What is it that we ended up 

building and using?
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
The electronic identity layer
"
E-government services require a way to relate
citizens to their portfolio of rights and
obligations
"
The questions
"
Who is the target customer? I.e. What can be assumed about
the user?
"
What is the legal significance of electronic identification?
Higher significance requires a more robust technical solution
"
What is the multiplicity relationship between legal and
electronic identities? A citizen could have several electronic
identities and shared electronic IDs could be conceived
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
The delivery channels layer
"
A distinct set of solutions providing electronic
access to the information systems of the
agencies
"
The questions
"
What is the diversity of channels across the services? I.e.
what channels a particluar service tends to be provided on?
"
What is the diversity of channels across the country? I.e.
what is the total set of channels all the services make use
of?
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
The integration layer
"
The integration layer joins the information
systems of different agencies allowing for
sharing of data and functionality
"
The questions
"
To what extent are services centralized between the
agencies? Effectively, what is the feasibility of a centralized
middleware solution?
"
What are the integration paradigms (e.g. document, data or
service) used? This has a strong impact on the functionality
of the middleware solution used.
"
How are privacy and data ownership regulated? Integration
layer is a central point for any privacy policy implementation
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
The infrastructure layer
"
All of the software described in previous layers
needs servers and network infrastructure
"
The questions
"
How tightly is the infrastructure consolidated? This question
is mainly about physical infrastructure and networks
"
To what extent are platforms offered centrally? I.e. what is
the cloud strategy in place?
"
What restrictions exist for the physical location of data? I.e.
to what extent can off-shore infrastructure and platforms be
used?

Technical architecture of Estonia
!
!


Using the framework to describe the
technical architecture of Estonian e-
government
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Estonia.The electronic identity layer
"
PKI based on a smart-card picture ID
"
A SIM card can be used as a secondary token
"
For authentication, federated bank-based authentication
schemes can be used
"
The card is tied to a unique ID code of a person
"
There is little information on the card but that code
"
Digital signature is legally equivalent to the
physical one
"
2-3 digital signatures per capita given per month
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Estonia. The delivery channels layer
"
Web is the main service delivery channel for
most widely used services
"
Mobile is not there yet
"
Branches are used for tailored or complex services
"
In 2011, 94% of personal tax returns were filed
via a web-based portal
"
120+ different contact points exist,
centralization is low
"
Although a central service portal, eesti.ee, exists
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Estonia. The integration layer
"
A distributed enterprise service bus called x-
road is used
"
Offers authentication of parties and secure transport
"
Communication happens peer to peer
"
Use of x-road is compulsory for any intra-
agency communication
"
A central service discovery portal exists
"
Registration of any public information system is compulsory
Copyright Estonian Information System Agency 2014. This work is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International
Estonia. The infrastructure layer
"
The infrastructure is mostly disperese
"
Albeit most government networks having been consolidated
"
There is a large number of tiny hosting facilities with varying
levels of quality
"
There is a readyness and a plan to move
towards central platform offering
"
Most agencies use virtualization extensively
"
A common set of non-functional requirements towards new
systems is in place
