摘要
This research, is a clear case for developing countries, that realize the profits of cloud computing, to enhance their business and develop cutting-edge technology, but first, they need to address the concerns of decision-makers toward cloud computing technology. This research is based on a Technology Acceptance Model, which is modified to fit the context. The factors applied in this research are: Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, Perceived Risk/Security, Cloud Computing Awareness, compatibility, cost and an aim to use where it is a dependent variable in this study. Within this study, the Likert Scale (five-point scale) survey was produced, to get data from IT employees of the Jordanian business organization. Data was collected from 175 IT employees. Linear regression was used to examine the data using SPSS software. The outcomes revealed that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, cost, perceived risk were statistically significant, while compatibility and cloud computing awareness were found not to be statistically important. These outcomes explain that cloud computing systems can be quickly deployed in developing countries (avoiding unnecessary innovation); if users accurately understand their utility, it is clear that operating costs might be reduced. The perceived risk of system usage is low. We consider, of particular importance, the research line that technological compatibility is not significant, with the successful introduction of cloud applications. Fast deployment of cloud applications are good opportunities for developing countries, because of the lower cost of new software applications and use of big data.
