An apps store that could help the government slash the cost of its IT infrastructure is to be trialled from this week.
Prototype versions of the Government Application Store – a central store of software applications that can be accessed by public sector organisations over the internet – will be available to a selection of public sector bodies.
The pilot was announced by Martin Bellamy, director of the office of the government CIO, and the civil servant in charge of the G-Cloud project, announced at the GovNet Government IT 2010 event in London last week.
