Synopsis

Cloud computing (the cloud) is in the vanguard of the global digital transformation. The reason for this ascribed digital-leadership role is the diversity of unique and compelling benefits potentially available from using the cloud, including enabling emerging technologies and fostering innovation. At the same time, the cloud exacerbates existing organizational risks and creates new risks. Cloud Governance, the topic of this book, is designed to address this dichotomy. Cloud Governance plays a crucial role in optimizing cloud strategic objectives and in managing cloud risks. However, theories and frameworks associated with organizational governance are in many ways complex, nebulous, confusing, and challenging to translate into real-world practice.

To help reduce such bewilderment and consternation, this Cloud Governance book provides a basic and practical definition of Cloud Governance, as well as the major components comprising an organization’s Cloud Governance ecosystem.

This basics and practice-oriented Cloud Governance reference book is organized as follows.

• Interconnected and aligned chapters centered on a cloud governance ecosystem.
• Learning-oriented; a practical reference guide with chapter-based self-assessment questions.
• User-friendly; student and practitioner oriented reference book.
• Useful to diversified cohorts of international students, operational and risk managers, boards, auditors, advisors, educators and learning and development professionals.
• Multifunctional; may be read cover-to cover, or approached as a set of separate, stand-alone articles on unique cloud-related topics that can be read in any order.
