Abstract
Cloud Computing is offering competitive advantages
to companies through flexible and, scalable access to computing
resources. More and more companies are moving to cloud
environments; therefore understanding the requirements for this
process is both important and beneficial. The requirements for
migrating from a traditional computing environment to a cloud
hosting environment are discussed in this paper, considering this
migration from a supply chain lifecycle perspective. The cloud
supply chain is examined from a lifecycle perspective for the
management of the migration project. This paper illustrates the
requirements that need to be considered when adopting a cloud
migration strategy and the steps to take in order to manage this
process.
