Abstract: This study is on adoption of cloud computing by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in India. This paper, through preliminary survey, finds out different situations for adopting cloud computing services. It was found that SMEs can benefit the most if they adopt cloud services for computation intensive jobs like data mining, optimisation, risk modelling and simulation. The other advantages for SMEs are lowered investment in hardware, more efficient use of computing systems in existing data centres, easier scale-up of the applications and services and cost saving on technology infrastructure and faster software upgrades without much expense. The results can be used by SMEs as decision point for adopting cloud services.
