This study also compares Microsoft, Trend Micro, and the proposed unified cloud computing architecture to show that the proposed unified framework of the cloud computing service model is comprehensive and appropriate for the current complexities of businesses. The findings of this study can contribute to the knowledge for academics and practitioners to understand, assess, and analyze a cloud computing service application.展开更多

Cloud computing services evolved from distributed, grid, and utility computing. Critical companies such as Salesforce,Amazon, Google, and Microsoft play important roles in cloud computing. Dramatic changes in the technology environment have created new challenges for current information technologies. This study discusses four significant challenges for cloud computing services,including the next-generation Internet, data synchronization, cloud security, and competitive advantages.And then it also discusses how managers can learn about the future of cloud computing services.展开更多

This study explored the innovation of an academic cloud, the Ming Chuan University Cloud System (MCUCS). A cloud computing service provides numerous benefits to an organization. We conducted a comprehensive review and observation of MCUCS and identified 8 benefits for teachers and 10 for students. Teachers and students agreed that MCUCS consistently provided a service that improved their performance. The most beneficial features of MCUCS were its high usage and user satisfaction. Between April 2010 and April 2012, the usage exceeded 878 300 events. Overall student satisfaction with MCUCS was 79.2%, and teacher satisfaction was 86%. We concluded that MCUCS provides a good model of an academic cloud computing service and a high qualified system.展开更多
