Cloud Computing

Abstract

The global competition have extended the scope of trade and extended the supply chains causing the information management to be an essential part of the businesses. Many new technologies have recently been adapted by organizations in the era of digitalization. Cloud computing had an important place in these technologies and has been integrated widely to organizations. In recent days unexpected and risky periods such as the global pandemic increased the interest towards cloud computing topic in both academically and practically. The purpose of this study is to analyze and classify the contributions of the studies published in cloud computing field. The cloud literature is analyzed systematically from the management and business point of view. The review is limited with journal articles and papers published between 2014 and 2019. This research summarizes the current research attempts, discovers the research gaps and provides a research agenda for the future research on cloud computing within the context of information management in business and management by a global perspective.

Navigate Change and Innovation: Strategically Integrating Emerging Technologies in Release Management

“…Furthermore, a comprehensive review of cloud computing literature has shown that research should focus on managing and leveraging cloud technology for business purposes. It entails examining field contributions, identifying gaps, and proposing a research agenda aligning with global information management perspectives [14,24].…”

Information System Success for Organizational Sustainability: Exploring the Public Institutions in Saudi Arabia

“…Notwithstanding this study's mixed results on the positive influence of information success on employees' perceptions of different types of sustainability, future researchers may test various information system variables using different measures of sustainability. For instance, industry 4.0 technology deployment like machine learning, data analytics, cloud computing, or robotics could foster more sustainable practices at the organizational level [92][93][94][95][96][97][98][99][100][101]. In addition, game theory approaches can offer models to understand how interactions between actors influence outcomes [102][103][104].…”

Conceptualizing sustainability in the context of ICT. A literature review analysis.

“…On the other hand, ICT directly impacts the environment, for example, via the hardware value chain for which raw materials need to be extracted, and energy is required for producing, using, refurbishing or reusing, and finally for disposing hardware as e-waste [5]. Also, operating large data centers, the backbone for supporting an increased usage of cloud-based services [21], requires significant energy [22]. Additionally, there are negative indirect impacts such as obsolescence, induction, and rebound effects [19,23,24].…”
