ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to examine if cloud computing is a feasible and a relevant computing solution for Namibia. Currently, there seems to be inadequate guidelines for adopting cloud computing in Namibia. The research will introduce the technologies underlying cloud computing, and briefly describe different cloud computing technologies, as in how the cloud is access and what services are provided through the cloud. We also cover cloud computing from a commercial standpoint, to make sure that cloud computing adoption and underlying technologies are fully realized, and the risks involved are properly understood.
