Abstract
Software products are available in two types, namely On-Premise and Cloud Computing. This research paper is aimed to study benefit and risk factors influencing organization’s decision to migrate from on-premise to cloud computing model of software product. This study follows DEMATEL concepts of perceived benefit and perceived risk to explore the factors which influences organization’s decision for the migration. With the help of this technique, it has been identified that there are 10 perceived benefit factors and 7 perceived risk factors which influences organization’s decision to migrate from on-premise to cloud computing model of software product.
Interviews and Group discussions has been carried out with different types of organizations which includes IT, Banking, Financial, Pharmaceutical, Transportation, Education, Online shopping etc. and these organizations has migrated to cloud computing type of software product from on-premise type of software product. It is found that organizations take decision to migrate to cloud computing type of software product from on-premise type of software product if perceived benefit factors surpasses perceived risk factors. The outcome of this study will help organizations in migration to cloud technologies from traditional on-premise technologies. The future scope of this study will be extension to other types of organizations.
