Cloud computing has been evolving over a couple of years with the increased use of cloud-based services like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Dropbox, Office 365, and so on. It revolves around the several technologies, for developing and supporting these services. With the evolution of new technologies, it leads to widespread use of cloud-based applications in real time. Processing powers are increased...
Cloud computing is an emerging economic modelthat provides a broad network access to services with manybenefits to many tenants at the same time. Although it createsa large potential to develop new online services the evolution ofcloud computing has been accompanied by the proliferation ofvarious attacks against the services on the cloud infrastructures. The importance of risk management in cloud...
Cloud computing and cloud systems are very popular in today's Information Technology (IT) and systems and have grown very quickly. Cloud computing helps organizations solve increasing IT costs such as their licenses, power consumption, physical protection, by providing better standardization, higher benefit, greater performance, and quicker responses of information services. Carrying vital importance...
In a highly competitive business environment, Cloud based enterprise resource planning (ERP) plays a crucial role for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to operate their business in a cost effect manner and yet deliver performance. The ability of a company to implement cloud ERP can be viewed as both strategic as well as tactical achievements. This tool integrates various business processes and thus...
Cloud computing technologies play a substantial role in public organizations and private sector companies since it reduces the cost of using information technology services and allows users to access the service anytime and everywhere, whilst only paying for what they use. In developing countries, such as Saudi Arabia, the cloud computing is still not widely adopted, compared to countries in the west...
In the last decade, companies have become tend virtualized thanks to the use of outsourcing, the workforce has become more distributed, workplaces are increasingly distributed and outsourced and increasingly digital employees, with the philosophy of work anytime and anywhere. This development has, and has had a very big impact on mobile platforms and infrastructure, on the one hand, the adoption of...
Cloud computing is an emerging trend that provides on-demand computational resources to the end users as services. Hence, consumers are charged based on their usage and consumption of services delivered through the Internet. This paradigm aims at outsourcing and delegating computations to an external third-party and reducing operating costs. As a result, public sector and private enterprises are interested...
Cloud computing is a set of Information Technology services that are provided to a customer over a network on a leased basis and with the ability to scale up or down their service requirements. Cloud computing is a new general purpose internet-based technology through which information is stored in servers and provided as a service and on-demand to the clients. It builds on decades of research in...
The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors influencing information governance, and particularly the role of new challenges such as cloud-based services, boundary-crossing use of data and new system development practices. Governing information within - as well as outside - the organization, balancing access and security, and aligning investments with corporate goals, are all becoming crucial...
Cloud computing is a promising technology and its adoption is increasing rapidly. Still, many potential cloud customers are concerned about the security, privacy, and availability of their data in the cloud as they have less control over it. Cloud certification authorities can perform rigorous and thorough testing based on the well-known security standards procedures and make the audit reports public...
Cloud computing has emerged as a fast-growing paradigm for storing/sharing data and delivering services over the Internet. It provides its users with a way to deal with information or data without investing in any new technology or resources of their own. Although cloud computing environment is viewed as a promising Internet-based computing platform, the security challenges it poses are also equally...
Computing in cloud has come out as a growing trend that has eliminated the burden of hardware and software infrastructure by facilitating virtual machines via internet. In spite of the indispensable advantages, cloud computing also brings critical challenges that cannot be avoided from consumer side if the security of the data is concerned. In this paper, we analyze the various security aspects that...
The healthcare industry is facing several challenges and significant pressure to decrease the costs associated with providing healthcare services, adopt new electronic healthcare systems, and communicate data quickly and securely with other healthcare and government agencies. Recently, the healthcare industry started perceiving cloud computing as a solution for its elasticity, scalability and universal...
Enterprises subscribe the cloud services since they reduce the initial investments on constructing data centres, hiring skilled IT employees within their business to the pay as you go expenses of cloud services. In addition to this it helps to escape from the confines of application upgrading and expense on maintenance of data centres. As the demand of cloud is increasing the threats for the cloud...
Cloud computing is dominating European countries' Information and Communication Technology (ICT) agenda. Although the European cloud market is mostly mature, there are still challenges to overcome. Norway is one of the European countries facing such challenges, despite it is a developed country in terms of quality of life and ICT development. This paper identifies the current state of cloud computing...
With the increasingly widespread application of cloud computing, it has become a critical task for researchers to study techniques on cloud safety and standardization. In this paper, hybrid cloud security and fair Resource Allocation related problems are investigated. A security model based on trust negotiation is presented to fit the hybrid cloud environment. Furthermore, fair resource model and...
Among the various industry sectors, the financial industry in South Africa (SA) has been one of the early adopters of cloud computing (CC) but they have not fully implemented it because of barriers such as security and privacy, governance issues, inadequate cloud service level agreements (SLAs), vendor lock in, poor vendor transparency, inability to assess risks, confidentiality, integrity and availability...
Cloud computing provides access to network as when need arises in the sharing environment where configurable resources are available. This provides various services such as data access, computation, software, storage. These services don't need involvement of end user like about the location and integrable part of system through which services are delivered. As data transmission over the internet or...
Cloud computing has recently appear as a promising hosting platform that performs an smart usage of a collection of services, applications, information and infrastructure composed of pools of computer resources for storage with the ability to provide users dynamically scalable, shared resources over the Internet and avoid large forthright fixed costs. However along with these advantages, that is storing...
