Muhammadiyah Universities are the largest private university network in Indonesia. Generally, they have similar business process and information system (IS) requirements. However, in reality, each university builds its own architecture and IS. Problems often arise regarding the redundancy of the IS, the lack of a standardized data structure, the absence of data consolidation between ISs and the inconsistency of IS development. These problems are the basic premise for designing an information technology (IT) architecture model using the concept of cloud computing. Based on the results of analyzing the conditions of the university using the chosen framework, an IT architecture model based on cloud computing that corresponds to the condition and requirements of Muhammadiyah Universities in Indonesia was created. This architecture consists of business, data, application, and technology architectures. This research is expected to contribute to the Muhammadiyah Universities, especially as a reference in designing IT architecture.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
