  1. Cloud Computing Diffusion of Innovations Diane Burling

  2. Why Cloud Computing • Proper and affordable • Accessibility

  3. Need • Sold on demand, typically by the minute or the hour; • Elastic -- a user can have as much or as little of a service as they want at any given time; and the service is fully managed by the provider (the consumer needs nothing but a personal computer and Internet access)

Research • Dates back to 1960, computer scientist John Mccarthy • 2.Internet hosting services expand on what is already in place- provide hosting services: • Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) • Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) • Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). • Sold on demand, elastic, no managing required by user

  5. Development • Privacy Issues • Compliance • Legal • Open source/standards • Security • Availability/performance • Sustainability • Clients

  6. Commercialization • Public cloud • Community cloud • Hybrid cloud • Private cloud • Billed as a utility

  7. Phases of Innovation

  8. Phases continued Phases…

  9. S-Curve Cloud Computing Diffusion Implementation Idea 1960 1990 2000 2010

  10. Innovators & Early Adopters • IT Professionals • Ease of Use & Implementation • No upgrade of equipment • Use what is needed • Accessibility • Affordability

  11. Late Entry Users • Fear of new innovation • Fear of technology • Fear of the unknown… • Training and support • Hands on help by IT and Super-Users
