Cloud Computing: A Key to It Development in West African Sub Region

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 2

Abstract

 Abstract: There is no gainsaying the fact that information technology (IT) development in West Africa has met a lot of challenges ranging from cyber threat to inadequate IT infrastructure. Cloud computing is a revolution. It is creating a fundamental change in computer architecture, software and tools development and of course, in the way we store, process, distribute and consume information. This paper, therefore explores the basic concepts of cloud computing and how cloud computing could be harnessed to improve IT and economic development in West African sub-region.
