Summary: | Despite the promising future of cloud computing to
be successfully adopted for SMEs’s daily operations, researchers,
policy makers and SME owners are still grappling with how
effective cloud computing could be customized to monitor
respective SME performances. The literature review revealed
that there is still a lack of research on the post-adoption of cloud
computing, particularly concerning the key variables and
interrelationships which are mostly divergent and that produce
varied results. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to
develop an integrative cloud computing model underpinned by
the Resources-Based View Theory (RBV) and also via applying
the concept of IT business value. This study seeks to bridge the
knowledge gap of cloud computing complementary
organizational capabilities identified as the internal factor. As
future research guidelines, this research will fill the theoretical
gap especially concerning the impacts of cloud computing among
Malaysian SME adopters. |
