Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 4

Abstract

 Abstract: The extensive use of information and communication technology has transformed manufacturing organizations and economies into information centric and customer focused organizations. In present times, the information about a product or customer has become as valuable to the company as the product or service. However gaining information is an evolutionary process which begins with collection and storage of data to analysis and processing which is transformed into knowledge. It is this knowledge that is mission critical for organizations and their success.It is extremely vital for an organization to ensure that at no point of operation, the data which enables it with this knowledge is compromised. To ensure this the organizations invest a significant volume of their capital to set up an IT infrastructure to Preserve, Process and Protect this most valuable asset to an organization in present paradigm, its data. However for a small and medium sized company it is extremely demanding to implement the fundamentals of this new information based economy as it requires a significant investmentupfront. For such organizations choosing cloud computing is a cost effective alternative but with obvious concerns.Cloud Computing offers the opportunity to access IT resources and services with appreciable convenience and speed. Whilst cloud computing is gaining growing popularity in the IT industry, it also meets with some challenges like data security, integrity, availability. This paper discusses the concept of “cloud” computing and its prospects and challenges. The benefits of cloud computing has led increasingly many enterprises to outsource their IT resources tothe cloud, despite some challenges. The main contribution of this paper is that we discuss challenges that organizations which want to migrate to cloud faces
