Walden University College of Management and Technology This is to certify that the doctoral study by Daryoush Charmsaz Moghaddam has been found to be complete and satisfactory in all respects, and that any and all revisions required by the review committee have been made. Review Committee Dr. Steven Case, Committee Chairperson, Information Technology Faculty Dr. Gail Miles, Committee Member, Information Technology Faculty Dr. Bob Duhainy, University Reviewer, Information Technology Faculty Chief Academic Officer and Provost Sue Subocz, Ph.D. Walden University 2020 Abstract Developing Cloud Computing Infrastructures in Developing Countries in Asia by Daryoush Charmsaz Moghaddam MS, Sharif University, 2005 BS, Civil Aviation Higher Education Complex, 1985 Doctoral Study Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Information Technology Walden University March 2020 Abstract Adoption and development of cloud computing in developing countries can be different from other countries, but it can provide more benefits. The purpose of this multiple case study, guided by diffusion of innovations theory, was to explore strategies that IT directors use to develop cloud computing infrastructures in Iran. Five IT directors from 5 cloud computing companies with at least 5 years experiences in deploying the cloud computing infrastructures, developing strategic plans, and management cloud hosting services in Iran, shared strategies through semistructured, face-to-face interviews. Additionally, company documents were reviewed for triangulation. Member checking ensured the accuracy and reliability of the findings, then thematic analysis was performed using software for coding and helped organize themes as they emerged during the process. Four main themes emerged from the data: focus on customer solutions as a strategy, management as a strategy, implementation and support as a strategy, and paradigm as a strategy to develop cloud computing infrastructures in developing countries in Asia. Therefore, the findings from this study showed that cloud computing continues to play an important role in adopting new technologies, especially in responding to the needs of developing countries in Asia. These findings contribute to positive social change by providing insights to IT directors in companies on best business practices, heightening awareness of different cultures, and some of the social developments in developing countries in Asia. The result may be improved living standards in society and greater social balance to reduce discrimination.

  • Data Mining in Cloud Computing
    Database Systems Journal vol. III, no. 3/2012 67 Data mining in Cloud Computing Ruxandra-Ştefania PETRE Bucharest Academy of Economic Studies [email protected] This paper describes how data mining is used in cloud computing. Data Mining is used for extracting potentially useful information from raw data. The integration of data mining techniques into normal day-to-day activities has become common place. Every day people are confronted with targeted advertising, and data mining techniques help businesses to become more efficient by reducing costs. Data mining techniques and applications are very much needed in the cloud computing paradigm. The implementation of data mining techniques through Cloud computing will allow the users to retrieve meaningful information from virtually integrated data warehouse that reduces the costs of infrastructure and storage.

  • Simplified Enterprise Cloud App Management
    Simplified Enterprise Cloud App Management | Solutions Brief Simplified Enterprise Cloud App Management AppStack accelerates application time-to-market on Citrix CloudPlatform As cloud deployments have matured, the need for a richer set of business applications running in these environments is growing. Businesses have already adopted cloud deployments for simple applications, but the complexities of deploying and managing multi-tier enterprise applications in the cloud is still too high. AppStack provides a solution for simplifying application provisioning and ongoing lifecycle management for service provider or enterprise cloud environments based on CloudPlatform. citrix.com/ready Simplified Enterprise Cloud App Management | Solutions Brief 2 AppStack provides simple cloud application management for Citrix CloudPlatform powered by Apache CloudStack. The AppStack portal allows users to launch any multi-tier or distributed application into public and private CloudPlatform targets. The integrated App Marketplace provides a rich catalog of applications to deploy as part of Workloads. Service Providers can private label the portal to provide application services to end users through a branded UI. AppStack provides portability to move applications from external clouds into CloudPlatform. Appcara was founded to create the most advanced, flexible and easy-to-use application platform for the cloud. The AppStack platform can be used by both Service Providers and Enterprises. AppStack enables Service Providers to provide application services to their end users on their Infrastructure (IaaS) cloud environments. For Enterprises, AppStack makes it easy to deploy and manage and accelerate business applications to either private or public clouds. AppStack makes it possible for less technical users to manage applications, with a very easy to use portal-based approach, that eliminates complex server templates, scripting or coding.

  • Programming Interfaces for Realtime and Cloud-Based Computing
    Programming Interfaces for Realtime and Cloud-based Computing Gregory Katsaros National Technical University of Athens, Greece Tommaso Cucinotta Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy ABSTRACT Research in the fields of Grid Computing, Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) as well as Virtualization technologies has driven the emergence of Cloud service models such as Software- as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). The appearance of different business roles according to this classification, potentially with differing interests, introduces new challenges with regard to the tools and mechanisms put in place in order to enable the efficient provisioning of services. Security, Quality of Service (QoS) assurance and real-time capabilities are just a few issues that the providers are trying to tackle and integrate within the new products and services that they offer. In this chapter, we make an overview of the approaches that aim to APIs for real-time computing. In the first part of this chapter, several Real-Time Application Interfaces will be presented and compared. After that, we will document the state-of-the-art regarding the Cloud APIs available and analyze the architecture and the technologies that they support. INTRODUCTION New generation interactive distributed applications, such as various multimedia, virtual collaboration and e-learning applications, have significant demands on processing, storage and networking capabilities, as well as stringent timing requirements. For these applications, the time at which individual computations and data transfers are terminated is as important as their functional correctness. Contrarily to the traditional domain of hard real-time systems, where a single violation of the timing constraints is not acceptable because it would lead to potential overall system failures and/or life losses, the mentioned applications posses instead soft timing constraints, whose violation leads to degradation of the offered Quality of Service and interactivity level.
