Abstract: Abstract Over the last couple of decades, the majority of companies have outsourced at least parts of their information systems to external suppliers, and a broad stream of research has been dedicated to the phenomenon of Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO). This development has been reinforced further by the currently much-discussed approach of “Cloud Computing” (Mell and Grance, 2011). Cloud Computing applications can be differentiated as Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) applications, depending on the type of capability provided (Vaquero et al., 2009).
