Guohua Deng, Donglin Chen, Mengdi Yao · International Journal of Services Technology and Management · 2015
In order to solve the problem of identifying participants and value chain of cloud service, this paper firstly identified the major participants and environment factors in the cloud ecosystem based on the construction of the modern service sector ecosystem. And then the cloud ecosystem value model was set up on the base of e3-value. This model clearly reflects the value linkages among different participants. This analysis presented herein provides a much broader perspective and insight about cloud computing for its providers and prospective adopters.
