The UK Government's G-Cloud-13 framework is now live, offering a wide range of new services to UK organizations. With direct procurement replacing the GOV.UK PaaS platform, users will have access to an increased number of managed open source solutions from Aiven. As an existing GOV.UK vendor, Aiven provides managed open source data technologies on all major clouds globally and is pre-vetted for use by UK organizations. The new G-Cloud-13 framework offers direct access to vendors via a centrally negotiated government contract, allowing users to continue enjoying the managed service offerings of OpenSearch and InfluxDB while also having access to other managed open source solutions from Aiven.
