Abstract: The public sector experienced growing service delivery requirements during the late 2010s because citizens demanded digital economy standards from their public services. Public sector organizations worldwide have implemented cloud computing and Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) methodologies to meet the growing demands for their services. This research investigates how cloud platforms integrated with CI/CD pipelines serve as essential tools for delivering digital public services continuously. The paper examines the core principles and main advantages of service innovation acceleration and operational efficiency improvement, while discussing the major obstacles, including security concerns, regulatory compliance issues, limitations from legacy systems, and the need for organizational cultural transformation. The paper evaluates existing practices and first case studies to examine architectural elements and implementation methods, as well as the emerging adoption of DevSecOps. The paper provides strategic advice to public sector organizations seeking to enhance their digital service delivery through cloud-integrated CI/CD and reviews existing market developments.
