Abstract

Today, technology plays an important role in helping organizations to maintain control and take advantage of the opportunities in a highly competitive and increasingly complex business environment. Cloud computing provides software, storage, computing power and other services to customers from remote data centers over the web. The demand for cloud-based software is rising which allows companies to start using new programs faster and at lower cost than traditional products that are installed at a customer’s own data center. Cloud computing companies offer cloud computing in developing countries like India and China at prices everyone can afford. As a result, it is not just top IT companies in developed nations that can take advantage of the cloud; even small companies in these nations can benefit from this. This paper reviews the factors that influence the adoption of cloud computing and attempts to derive a framework for successful adoption of cloud computing in organizations. The paper addresses various issues related to resources, security, interoperability and agility.
