Abstract
In academic institutions, there is frequently the need to provide new services, in a cloud model, to be used either in teaching or research activities. One of the main decisions to be addressed is related to the cloud model to adopt (private, public or hybrid), and what the mixing of functionalities to use for the hybrid one. In this paper a new approach is proposed to define a methodology to serve as a tool to be used as decision support for the ICT manager in order to help him in this decision. A simple and intuitive graph representation has been used. The methodology has been tested with a real case study on the provisioning of a new e-learning service for the university of the authors. The work has to be considered a tentative approach as a starting point to further researches in the same direction.
