The cloud service layer is designed for four categories of government procurement cloud service mode, namely, infrastructure cloud, data resources cloud, and core business cloud and application cloud, which provide the IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS services, respectively. The establishment of the cloud platform plays a significant role in government procurement information storage, sharing, opening, and searching, thus cutting government spending and improving management efficiency. Such outcomes are also beneficial to the integration and sharing of government procurement information resources and business collaboration, thereby promoting innovative information resource utilization and improving information management and security.}, }
