Summary/Abstract: This paper presents theoretical, technical and practical aspects of using electronic administration (e-administration). Differences between e-government, e-administration, e-governance and The Learning City are explained. Several selected and existing technical solutions are presented and analyzed. The paper contains a brief description of activities concerning the problem of Cloud Computing (CC) in Administration in Poland, especially in the perspective of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS). Significant aspects of CC have been discussed, e.g.: the “Computerization of Local Government Bodies using cloud computing” project. It is assumed that CC may be useful to reduce the cost of developing and maintaining IT systems. This paper describes how closely e-administration is related to the proper functioning of modern governments. E-administration mechanisms, the structure and functions of selected systems are described. This study brings its contribution to the understanding of the methods of e-administration.
