“…Behrend et al (2011) studied TAM to explore CCA and its usage in USA community college while Yu-Hui (2012) adopted UTAUT to study SaaS adoption in Taiwan small and medium enterprises (SMEs). In the recent years, integration of different frameworks, models and theories such as TAM-TOE (Gangwar et al, 2015), TAM-DOI (Tehrani and Shirazi, 2014), TOE-ANT (Saedi and Iahad, 2013;Alismaili et al, 2016), TOE-DOI (Oliveira et al, 2014;Chen and Chen, 2018) and UTAUT-TOE (Ooi et al, 2018) have been deployed to capture broader understanding of the phenomenon in question. Table IV provides a summary of various adoption models and factors across the globe (both developed and developing countries).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to presents an analysis of geographically and disciplinary scattered academic publications of cloud computing (CC) research in information systems. This review aims to understand the research methodology, research frameworks and models, geographical distribution, trends, critical factors and causal relationships associated with cloud computing adoption (CCA). Design/methodology/approach Systematic-literature-review using natural language processing is conducted to explore the phenomenon. The relevant research studies are extracted from various online databases using quality-assessment-criteria. Findings The study is a novel attempt to highlight the differences in critical factors for CCA in different country-settings. Further, the research explores the causal relationships among the identified factors. The findings of this 12-year systematic-review contribute by aiding the providers and potential adopters to devise context-specific strategies for the penetration of cloud services and sound adoption decisions (ADs), respectively. The findings also highlight the prospective avenues of research in the domain for researchers. Using the in-depth analysis, conceptual frameworks have been proposed that can assist in exploring the pre-adoption and post-adoption of CC. Originality/value This study contributes to CCA research by providing holistic insights into the methodology, research framework and models, geographical focus, critical factors and causal relationships influencing the AD or intention. The review highlights the unexplored emerging research topics in the field of CCA for future research directions.

“…The adoption rates of different technologies have been found to be varying across countries. Various models [diffusion of innovation (DOI) (Rogers, 1962); technology acceptance model (TAM) (Davis, 1989), unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT) (Venkatesh et al , 2003), technology organization environment (TOE) framework (Tornatzky et al , 1990)] and integrated models – TAM-TOE (Gangwar et al , 2015), TAM-DOI (Oliveira et al , 2014) TOE-DOI (Chen and Chen, 2018), UTAUT-TOE (Ooi et al , 2018) – were developed to explain the adoption of technologies like word processors, the Internet, mobile telephony and cloud computing. Behrend et al (2011) used TAM to study CC adoption in the USA and found that CC use is a function of perceived ease-of-use (PEOU).…”

PurposeCloud computing (CC) services have given a tremendous boost to the creation of efficient and effective solutions. With developing countries at a slow pace of adoption, this research aims to identify factors and their interrelationships influencing the adoption of CC in a developing country context. The developing countries are enjoying numerous benefits from CC services; however, its low adoption is still a question in developing economies; hence, the authors have selected the context of information and communication technology (ICT) firms in India.Design/methodology/approachThe qualitative research method is used where experts from thirteen ICT firms in India are interviewed.FindingsSixteen factors, twenty-eight subfactors, and 25 interrelationships are revealed through content analysis. Further, causal loop diagrams are proposed to display the behavior of cause and effect of these factors from a system's perspective. This will help to understand the relationships among the factors in order to enhance the speed of CC adoption. Possible financial loss and resistance to change are found as the key barriers to adoption. The proposed interrelationships can guide both policymakers and service providers for designing effective CC policies.Originality/valueThis is the first scholarly work that identifies interrelationships among factors and subfactors, thereby providing a holistic picture to decision-makers while making a choice on whether to adopt cloud services or continue with on premise data centers and servers.
