The significant growth in the use of technologies in all life domains created many hurdles that derailed many knowledge management projects. Cloud computing choices are commencement to untangle these obstacles. Linking Cloud computing with knowledge management (KM) is a challenging task. Small amount of researches have been conducted regarding cloud computing and knowledge management. In this paper, we proposed a framework of knowledge management as a Service (KMaaS) over cloud. Our framework consists of six components (KM Users, KM Domain Registration/content Integration, KM Service Directory, Cloud Manager, Resource Allocation Manager, and Monitoring and Payment). Accessing the different KM services from KM service directory will be easily at anytime, anywhere and from any device based on users' subscription to specific domain.
