In Cloud Computing, the system is generally fitted with a set of IT infrastructure, platform and the relevant applications supplied via Internet, with low cost of installation and network access to a shared configurable computing pool of resources and pay-by-use services. Although cloud computing has a great potential, literature indicates that factors affecting its adoption and the benefits leveraged from it have not been largely examined among empirical studies. Hence, in this study the authors explain the advantages and factors that affect the drive of cloud computing adoption. This paper is organized in the following way: In section one, the paper provides the introduction to the topic. this is followed by section two that contains cloud computing information in detail and section three that provides a description of the advantages that can be reaped from its use. Section four provides the factors that affect cloud computing adoption or the barriers to its implementation and finally, section five provides the paper conclusion and recommendations for future studies.
