This paper provides a meta-observation over an integrated cloud ecosystem, which has been mostly limited to Software (SaaS), Platform (PaaS) and Infrastructure (IaaS). This study tries to give a different perspective of the cloud environment in a holistic view of its broader application and structure through the knowledge management window. This will envisage a deeper insight into how the cloud as an integrated ecosystem can act as a knowledge provider and enhance the quality of knowledge services. With the focus is on cloud integrity as an ecosystem, our study tries to illustrate the value-add and implications of such ecosystem in betterment of quality in knowledge services.
