Cloud Computing Systems in Information Society - The European Enterprises towards Technological Advancement - Comparative Rough Set Analysis

Abstract:

Cloud computing systems usage in enterprises has become very popular in recent years. On the world market there is an increasing number of cloud computing services providers with more or less complex solutions in their offer. Thanks to cloud computing services SMEs have the chance to compete with big corporations. The article presents the usage of cloud computing in the European enterprises in comparison with enterprises from the United States, the use of cloud computing solutions in enterprises of the EU countries in 2014 and prognosis on the use of cloud technologies in Eastern European countries between 2014 and 2017. The aim of the article is to present the current state of cloud systems adoption in European enterprises and to conduct the comparative analysis of the data structure based on the rough sets theory.
