Abstract-The advent of cloud computing (CC) in recent years has attracted substantial interest from various institutions, especially higher education institutions, which wish to consider the advantages of its features. Many universities have migrated from traditional forms of teaching to electronic learning services, and they rely upon information and communication technology services. The usage of CC in educational environments provides many benefits, such as low-cost services for academics and students. The expanded use of CC comes with significant adoption challenges. Understanding the position of higher education institutions with respect to CC adoption is an essential research area. This paper investigated the current state of CC adoption in the higher education sector in order to enrich the research in this area of interest. Existing limitations and knowledge gaps in current empirical studies are identified. Moreover, suggested areas for further researches will be highlighted for the benefit of other researchers who are interesting in this topic. These researches encourage institutions of education especially in higher education to adopted cloud computing technology.

Knowledge has been utilized as a leverage by many businesses organization In the Era of Knowledge economy, as it is considered scarce, valuable and cognitive asset. Accordingly, managing that knowledge is considered a fundamental challenge for business managers to obtain the greatest value from it because of its profound impact on employees, business processes, and products, as well as to give organizations a sustainable competitive advantage in light of the hyper competition between businesses. This study aims to integrate cloud computing services within the life cycle of knowledge management, with the aim of benefiting from the cloud computing services model (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) as a breaking-through technological infrastructure to support the four processes of knowledge management (discovery, capture, sharing, application). It is expected that the proposed framework will serve as a reference for employees in knowledge economy organizations to infuse cloud computing services within the processes of creating, possessing, transferring and applying knowledge, which will have a fundamental impact on management practices in the areas of planning, problem-solving, decision-making and policymaking.
