Abstract

Cloud-Computing may be viewed as a resource available as a service for virtual data centers, but cloud computing and virtual data centers are not the same, cloud computing is logical evaluation of Information Technology (IT) in a world that is becoming more and more based on the division of the work. In this paper we aim at examining the recent successful trend and efficiency brought about by cloud computing in the Armangarayan company. This company is delivering e-learning materials through cloud computing to the bank of ‘Ayandeh’ in Iran by considering SaaS model. In the present study a part from cloud E-learning, we came across with interesting findings when shifting from traditional e-learning to e-learning cloud such as total cost reduction to 65%, increase in number of Bank’s employee who are really interested in e-learning for reaching a better career, IT labor and development team cost decreased to 66%, and testing time to 66.28%.
