Abstract
Cloud computing (CC) has received significant attention from different types of businesses and Industries and emerged as a new utility for businesses activities. The philosophy behind CC shows a great potential to transform a major part of the IT industry, making computing environment and resources even more attractive as a cost-effective service and changing the way IT hardware is designed and purchased. Resulting day by day more small and medium and large enterprise are adopting different types of CC services. However, strong market competitive environment for converting existing IT services to CC environment imposed different types of challenges for the CC architect. Development of CC architect environment in any organisation is a very complex process and success depends on its proper architecture design and development according to business requirements. The aim of this paper identifies the major type of key factors from literature and provides different guidelines for organisations to support the CC architecture development process. Finally, the different types of CC services generally referred to as CC architect are explained how they all work. This paper will be helpful and provides certain guidance on situations where specific types of CC services are particularly not the best option for any organization.
