    In recent years Cloud Computing has been one of the most discussed references in the world of information technology. As the adoption of Cloud Computing has become so important for firms, a question arises: what is the factor determining the adoption of technology? Thus, the aim of this study is to identify a set of determinants of adoption of Cloud Computing by firms. To reach this goal we suggested a research model based on two theories held in the literature: the diffusion of innovation (DOI) model and the technology organization environment (TOE) framework. To support the suggested model a quiz is even proposed to test the suggested hypotheses. The implications of the results of this study are discussed, both for researchers and for managers. We present the plan to the empirical testing and model validation of the hypotheses suggested. Future extensions to this study are also considered in this paper

    The implemented system still has limited integration and interoperability for supporting clinical operations among other Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOHM) hospitals, health centres, and clinics. The adoption of EHR system is happening very slowly to become fully integrated in both primary care and within hospital settings. Therefore, the objectives of this paper are to discuss about the challenges in EHR integration and the consideration towards metadata standardization. It is also to analyse the current status of such research topics in it relevancy, the dominant countries involve and the subject areas that contributed the most. Method being used in this is paper is literature review analysis and Scopus analyse tools. This papers begin with the explanation of general metadata that is required in system integration. Then the discussion highlighted the importance of metadata in electronic document management. Furthermore, the discussion reveals the challenges or barriers includes interoperability, security and privacy and preservation regarding electronic health records system integration. The important part of this paper is the analysis of related research. It is important in recognizing the relevancy of research topic and the area that has been explored by previous researchers. The findings conclude that the topics is demanded to be explore further and there is more to reveals especially in the management areas

    CLOUD REQUIREMENT FRAMEWORK: REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION CRITERIA TO ADOPT CLOUD SOLUTIONS

    Get PDF
    Due to the fast growth, Cloud Computing has become a non-transparent market with providers and customers willing to adopt it. Furthermore, many offers only partially meet customers? requirements and it is not clear how exactly Cloud Computing influences the IT. That makes it difficult for customers to plan migration projects and implement sustainable Cloud solutions. There are important factors and considerations for the decision to adopt Cloud Computing. The current studies and research in this field can be summarized to focus around the questions why adoption of Cloud Computing would occur, how much adoption would take place or how it would be adopted. But the adoption requirements covering all three service models (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) have barely been discussed in literature so far. A detailed understanding of Cloud requirements enables customers to adopt Cloud solutions efficiently. Therefore this paper aims to contribute a framework addressing the adoption and selection of Cloud services. A Cloud Requirement Framework (CRF) was developed, concentrating on relevant requirements for adopting Cloud services targeting all three service models. To develop this framework we followed a design science approach and conducted a systematic literature review, an extensive market analysis and an evaluation based on expert interviews

    CLOUD COMPUTING ECOSYSTEM MODEL: REFINEMENT AND EVALUATION

    Get PDF
    A business ecosystem has evolved in the field of cloud computing whereby new types of market actors have emerged breaking up the traditional value chain of IT service provision. In order to create a pro-found understanding of this ecosystem, several scholars tried to capture it in a model. However, these models differ considerably from each other. The goal of this paper, therefore, is to develop a revised and comprehensive cloud computing ecosystem model according to the design science paradigm. For this purpose, the recently published Passau Cloud Computing Ecosystem Model (PaCE Model) is de-veloped significantly further by integrating the insights of an analysis of the existing cloud ecosystem models regarding ten criteria and by considering findings from the general cloud and business ecosys-tem literature. To ensure the integrity of the enhanced PaCE Model, the Internet is manually searched for companies occupying the roles of the model. As a result, the model comprises 26 roles and in-cludes the basic service flows. Since the missing market transparency is regarded as one of the main reasons for the low cloud adoption, the intended contribution is to foster a better understanding of the cloud ecosystem and to provide a conceptual framework for further research

    The Business Perspective on Cloud Computing - A Literature Review of Research on Cloud Computing

    Get PDF
    This literature review synthesized the existing research on cloud computing from a business perspective by investigating 60 sources. It integrates their results in order to offer an overview about the existing body of knowledge. Using an established framework our results are structured according to the four dimensions following: cloud computing characteristics, adoption determinants, governance mechanisms, and business impact. This work reveals a shifting focus from technological aspects to a broader understanding of cloud computing as a new IT delivery model. There is a growing consensus about its characteristics and design principles. Unfortunately, research on factors driving or inhibiting the adoption of cloud services, as well as research investigating its business impact empirically, is still limited. This may be attributed to cloud computing being a rather recent research topic. Research on structures, processes and employee qualification to govern cloud services is at an early stage as well

    Cloud Computing: A Survey on its limitations and Potential Solutions

    Get PDF
    Abstract Cloud computing has brought a new paradigm shift in technology industry and becoming increasingly popular day by day. The small to medium enterprises (SMEs) are now adopting cloud computing in much more higher rate than large enterprises. That raises a debate whether this cloud computing technology will penetrate throughout the IT industry or not. The SMEs are adopting cloud computing for the low cost implementation of total IT infrastructure and software system whereas the large enterprises are relying on their own infrastructure for data security, privacy and flexibility to access their own infrastructure. In this paper, we provide a survey about possible limitations of cloud computing that is delaying its penetration. We also identify the ongoing potential solutions that will help the enterprises to adopt cloud computing for their IT infrastructure and software systems

    Cloud Abstraction Libraries: Implementation and Comparison

    Vendor lock-in makes it difficult for an organization to port their services, application or data. Cloud providers are in race to provide the best-in-class storage, networking and compute resources. Many organizations are moving towards micro-services and cloud services architecture. It is very important for an infrastructure platform to offer a high-quality cloud computing environment consistently across multiple cloud platforms. To enable this, a collaborative yet an independent cloud abstraction service is required. The cloud abstraction library should support the basic use cases of delivery pipeline, service management, cloud operations and security service. Cloud interoperability standards helps to improve availability and scalability by providing cross organizational or vendor independent projects. An important aspect of cloud interoperability is development of standardized APIs to send and receive data, irrespective of the underlying cloud implementation. Cloud interoperability helps application and data portability between public clouds and private clouds. This thesis explores the role of open source libraries to use cloud specific features. Our work is to qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate Dasein cloud and jClouds against Amazon EC2 and Google Compute Engine. We believe that cloud standardization can be accelerated by implementations based on open source and open standards
