Abstract

The current business environment is particularly dynamic as a result of the factors of change that are not only numerous but especially complex. In order to cope with the high demands of consumers, accelerated innovation, and intense competition generated by globalization, enterprises must be fast and efficient in changing their way of operating on marketplaces, and the answer to these challenges is digitalization, the adoption and integration of the latest digital technologies and their digital transformation. Cloud computing has a crucial role in enabling organizations to adapt, innovate, and remain competitive in today's fast-paced and data-driven business landscape. Cloud computing can reduce and even drop the disadvantages of running applications on on-premises servers and traditional data centers. Choosing the best cloud solution is often a real challenge due to the different types of available cloud services and numerous providers with advantages and disadvantages to the organization's needs and expectations. For this reason, knowing the different aspects of the implementation models and how each one of them responds to business needs is essential. This paper explores how cloud computing, unanimously considered essential for the digitization of businesses, represents the right solution concerning to different factors, namely the size of the enterprise, the complexity of business processes, and the requirements regarding data management and security.
