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.
Highlights
Many new technologies (e.g., Augmented Reality, Internet of Things, 3D Printers, Big Data, Cloud Computing, System Integration, etc.) have been widely used with the release of Industry 4.0
Global competition has extended the scope of trade and extended the supply chains causing information management to be an essential part of business
When we look at the field of production and operations management, it is seen that the most studied subject is the supply chain, which shows that cloud computing integration in supply chains can help managers to observe, plan and evaluate supply chain processes
Summary
Many new technologies (e.g., Augmented Reality, Internet of Things, 3D Printers, Big Data, Cloud Computing, System Integration, etc.) have been widely used with the release of Industry 4.0. The integration of machines and objects, together with the Internet of Things technologies, has resulted in a huge amount of data. Collecting and analyzing this data will provide a competitive advantage for companies (Deloitte, 2015). Cloud Computing is a new technology that could potentially revolutionize IT implementation and delivery (Alismaili et al, 2020). Service providers are divided into three classes according to the service offered, such as PaaS, SaaS, and IaaS (Rimal et al, 2011)
