Overview of the Factors Affecting Usage of Mobile Cloud Computing in the Technological Era

Cloud computing on mobile devices is regarded as a hot issue in the information systems industry. Mobile devices still have several limitations in terms of processing power, storage capacity, scalability, battery life, security and privacy, and cost, despite the improved technologies used in them. However, by combining cloud technology with mobile devices, cloud computing offers a number of solutions for mobile restrictions. Users are given the option to utilize the advanced application via mobile devices thanks to this connection. Nevertheless, additional study and analysis are still required to fully understand how mobile cloud computing is being used in underdeveloped nations. The fundamental advantages and difficulties of employing mobile cloud computing are discussed in this study, along with a novel theoretical framework for such utilization. The data collecting procedure for this research used a triangulation technique. In light of this, information was gathered via 22 interviews, 2 focus groups, direct observation, and 223 qualitative questionnaires. Several technologies, including NVivo software, were used throughout the data processing procedure.
