This document discusses cloud computing and its impacts on business and IT. It begins by explaining the evolution of technologies from mainframes to cloud computing. Cloud computing transforms IT and enables big data analytics. Worldwide device shipments are increasing, especially for smartphones and tablets. This ushers in a post-PC era where mobile internet access is most common. The internet of things and wearable devices are emerging trends. Cloud computing is already widely adopted and provides on-demand services over the network. In Thailand, the cloud market is growing significantly each year but maturity levels still vary between infrastructure, platform and software services. Both opportunities and challenges exist in security, skills and regulations. Organizations should develop cloud strategies and integrate cloud into their IT architecture

37. IaaS Impacts!
Local data centers will provide cloud services
IaaS is not just a normal hosting; it requires large
investment on a data center.
Different architecture and business model.
Fewer large cloud data center in ASEAN will
survive
Need to compete with big giants; Amazon,
Google, Oracle, etc.

39. PaaS Impacts!
Software development will shift toward the cloud.
Software company may develop their applications
on public IaaS/Paas; Microsoft Azure, Google App
Engines, Heroku, Amzaon S3
Require new skills
Opportunity to sell aboard.

41. SaaS Impacts !
Borderless
Software business model with change from
licensing model to subscription (pay as you go)
Opportunity for SME : Cheaper software?
Software runs anywhere, anytime, any device
Users can buy/ use software from anywhere
without knowing the origin as long as they
connected to the Internet
Less customer loyalty

54. ACCA: Thailand Rank 13
Deficiencies in infrastructure, in particular international
connectivity, broadband quality and power grid stability.
While it scored relatively well in business sophistication
and freedom of access to information, it ranked last in data
sovereignty.
Recommendation: Apart from the urgent need to improve
the infrastructure, we also recommend the re-examination
of data privacy and sovereignty laws, two of its lowestscoring indices.

Thailand has implemented comprehensive cybercrime
legislation
Thailand also has good laws in place for electronic
commerce and electronic signatures.
has no privacy laws in place, and this is a major weakness.
intellectual property laws also require significant updating
and expansion, as they do not currently cover rights
management information, technical protection measures,
or anti-circumvention.

57. Issues of Cloud Services
in Thailand
Lack of awareness // Misunderstanding
about Cloud Computing
Security issue
Low Broadband/Internet Access
Data Protection
Limited Cloud Service Providers; both
