Critical Success Factors in
planning for Cloud
Understand what & why you need to “go” Cloud:
• Need Elasticity?
• Need collaboration among
parties/internet?
• Shared anywhere & anytime..?
• Benefits in cost-saving /
service-based? Good to meter?
• Get stack-holder/user
involvement

Critical Success Factors in
planning for Cloud
In selection of “Cloud” solution/providers, consider:
•Security policies
•Function & features
•Estimate “cost” required, vs its pricing schemes
•Pre- & post support, local/remote? Easy?
•Services Level Agreement
•“Exit” arrangement
