Cloud Computing and Web 2.0
The objective of this study is to explain the business uses of cloud computing and Web 2.0 and to explain how organization use these tools, the technology required to use these tools, the benefits of cloud computing and Web 2.0 and the limitations of each.
Web 2.0 is reported as being "primarily associated with websites and web tools that promote interactive collaboration such as Wikipedia, Google Apps, YouTube and social networking sites." (CPA Practice Advisor, 2012, p.1) Tim O'Reilly, noted to have originally coined the phrase Web 2.0, stated that "one of the apparent indicators of the success of such a site is that 'the more that people use it, the better it becomes'." (CPA Practice Advisor, 2012, p.1) According to Web 2.0 Guru, Cloud Computing "a computing paradigm in which tasks are assigned to a combination of connections, software and services accessed over a network. This network of servers and connections is collectively known as "the cloud." Computing at the scale of the cloud allows users to access supercomputer-level power. Users can access resources as they need them." (2012, p.1) The concept of Cloud Computing is stated to be "at a higher level, reflecting many more things that we do (or can do) involving remotely available information, programs and computing infrastructure." (CPA Practice Advisor, 2012, p.1) Cloud Computing is defined by academics at the University of California Berkeley as...
In conjunction with this the technological aspects of security need to be managed as part of the governance process (Hannon, 2002) to make the change more trustworthy. Conclusion The impacts of Web 2.0 technologies and social networks are revolutionizing how government agencies interact internally and with each other. The need for overcoming resistance to change, redefining processes so they are made more effective with the addition of technology, are all critical
Information Technology The objective of this study explain the advantages and disadvantages of cloud-based hosting and in-house hosting and to explain the factors that have made cloud computing possible today. What is Web 2.0? Web 2.0 is reported to be a "techno-culture term" that was first used in 2004. (Gil, 2014, p. 1) The term Web 2.0 is a term that describes the World Wide Web which has "now evolved into a provider
Service Oriented Architecture As technology and computers evolve, new and better ways of managing these components becomes necessary. The concept of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has arisen as new model or method in which engineers, managers and everyday people can maximize their technologies in new and better ways. By understanding and embracing transformation within this area of technology, new paradigms of learning can be achieved and the collective ideals that are
cloud computing will be discussed to show that the good outweighs the bad. Furthermore, it will be further discussed that the government is looking into using cloud computing because it will cut IT cost down and increase capabilities despite the fact people are concerned with security issues that this may bring to the public. In completing a dissertation, it is very hard to go through the challenges that it requires.
Abstract Cloud computing technologies have emerged in the recent past as a new model/paradigm for hosting and delivering computing resources and services through the Internet. This paper discusses cloud computing technologies as a mechanism for improving business operations through offering computing resources/services via the Internet. This discussion includes an overview of cloud computing technologies, its benefits, and recent trends. This is followed by a discussion of speculations regarding the future of
Mobile Computing: A Disruptive Innovation Whose Time Has Come The pervasive adoption of mobile computing devices, combined with cloud computing and the quantum gains in application software are creating a globally diverse collaborative platform. These elements taken together are deliver an exceptionally fast and pervasive level of disruptive innovation across all sociocultural and technology sectors (Bernoff, Li, 2008). The impact of this disruptive innovation is so significant that IT departments have
