Abstract :
Cloud is essentially a flexible and scalable model for the way IT services are delivered and consumed. There are lots of advantages to using cloud computing for international companies. One of the major ones is the flexibility that it offers. Cloud computing means that users can access the files and data that they need even when they´re working remotely. Since the popularity of cloud service, businesses are looking for cloud solutions to solve some of their biggest business and technology challenges: reducing costs, creating new levels of efficiency, and facilitating innovative business models. To understand what that means to the business, the benefits and potential risks of migrating to cloud services need to be carefully considered. The suitable business model is therefore becoming the focus as adopting the cloud service. The study is based on the Critical Factor Index with AHP method which had here a different function than it usually does. Basically all the other results given by the Critical Factor Index are based on a questionnaire inside the companies. In this case, the study was carried out by using external experts. The research outcome will conclude the critical success factors and new business model of cloud service adoption. We also discuss the factors that make cloud computing an attractive option for enterprises.
