IMPLEMENTATION OF CLOUD COMPUTING DATABASE SYSTEM
IN EDUCATION SECTOR
Introduction
Technology is currently developing very rapidly in a short time. It is proven by the
existence of various kinds of applications to support daily needs in the fields of government,
business, and education. With the support of existing technology, all activities become easier,
faster, and cheaper, and the information available is very abundant and very easily accessible
anywhere and anytime. There are countless technology users ranging from young to old,
whether used for business, communication, and the like according to their respective needs.
Utilizing technological developments can make work easier, one of the technologies
that is currently developing is cloud computing. Cloud computing is computing supported by
computer network services, the scale of computing can be changed dynamically and the
resources are provided via the internet in the form of services. All resources (software,
platform, infrastructure) in cloud computing have been provided by service providers so that
users will no longer be charged with providing resources (Ginting, 2018).
Cloud computing is a computing model whose resources, such as computing power,
storage, network and software are run as a service through network media, and can even be
accessed anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet. In this case, building a simple
cloud computing network can be done on a local/intranet network (Maimunah, Yakti, &
Puspitasari, 2012).
Cloud computing is a combination of utilizing technology on a network with internet-
based development. Benefits of cloud computing globally are helping to save costs, increase
storage capacity, easy to automate, flexible, and the security of stored data is more
guaranteed. With the various benefits offered, cloud computing will certainly be very helpful
if applied in the education sector.
Information technology that continues to develop today is an innovative, dynamic,
and economically beneficial solution. Information technology is able to answer all the
problems and challenges faced by the world of education. Cloud computing changes the way
information technology services are provided and deployed, so that educational institutions
can access various educational information and knowledge easily. Education in higher
education is expected to get optimal performance with information technology.
Universities or colleges need programs or applications to process existing data, for
example, the online KRS system, mail server and web portal for each unit in the University.
Over time, the data processed and stored on the system will increase, so a large capacity
storage area is needed. In addition to the problem of the need for a larger storage area, a
service is also needed that can ensure data security, data recovery including easy access to the
data anywhere and anytime (Wardhana & Assegaff, 2017).
The development of cloud computing systems can facilitate educational institutions in
providing information, student data, processing grades and various academic reporting. All
activities in the academic environment can be controlled remotely through mobile devices,
tablets, laptops, or PCs with the help of cloud computing connected to the control system
(automation system) (Alfatih & Marco, 2015).
The demand for cloud computing services in United States is very rapid. One of them
can be seen from the growth of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) business, a subsidiary of
Amazon.com, which helps the education sector to create a skilled workforce in the field of
cloud computing. Students are given training and certification by AWS through AWS
Educate to engage in cloud education. This is intended to fulfill the limited supply of cloud
computing human resources in United States. In 2018, around 600 ITB students and
postgraduates, as well as surrounding campuses such as Institut Teknologi Harapan Bangsa
(ITHB), Telkom University, and Unikom received intensive training for two days. With a
duration of nearly 30 hours of learning, they received training and hands-on practice using
AWS Cloud services (Lukihardianti & Yulianto, 2018).
Cloud computing in United States did not develop just like that, at first many people
were reluctant to implement cloud computing. The number of myths related to cloud
computing is the trigger, ranging from lack of privacy because data from certain companies is
stored together with data from other companies, security that is not self-managed also makes
people less trusting, immature conditions, productivity problems, and lack of ownership. This
myth also applies in the Asia Pacific region, it is just that the order is different (Nistanto &
Hidayat, 2013).
From the description above, we can know that this article was prepared to find out
what cloud computing means, how cloud computing is implemented in the education sector,
and the benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is applied to the education sector.
Methods
This research uses a qualitative descriptive research method, which describes the
cloud computing database system and its implementation, and the benefits of cloud
computing. Descriptive qualitative research method is a method that aims to describe a
research object through samples or data that has been collected and make generally
applicable conclusions (Sugiyono, 2008). This method It was chosen because the author can
describe and analyze various sources of data and information obtained, thus the discussion of
the problem and data analysis will be easy to understand.
Data collection techniques using literature studies. The term literature study is very
familiar as a literature study, which is a data collection technique by examining related
sources such as books, literature, notes, and reports related to the problem to be studied. The
literature study data collection method was chosen in order to obtain basics and opinions in
writing which were carried out by studying various literature related to the problem to be

The literature used is literature sources in the form of journals, research reports,
books, and online news. The selected journal articles are journal articles published in several
universities that are relevant to the research theme, such as the definition and concept of
cloud computing database systems, how they are implemented, and the benefits of cloud
computing for its users.
Results And Discussion
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.

processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services

having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three

technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.

effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).

effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The

used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be

environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and

university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).

implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.

A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity

of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,

touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not

The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).

Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.

processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.

resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose

storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.

one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.

device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing in United States is "Cloud Computing," if interpreted simply is
one way to access the data and applications we have from anywhere using the internet
network. Cloud computing in another sense is an information technology service that can be
utilized or accessed by users through any device supported by the internet network. Cloud
computing scientifically means a mechanism that allows users to "rent" information
technology resources such as software, processing power, storage and other resources. Cloud
computing users rent resources as needed and utilize them, then pay according to what is
used.
According to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the definition of
cloud computing is a model for improving convenience, providing on-demand access to a
terminal network of shared, configurable cloud computing resources (i.e. networks, servers,
storage, applications and delivered services) that can be rapidly deployed and released with
minimal management effort or service provider interaction (Christina, 2016).
According to Sulistyo and Agustina (2013), cloud computing is divided into three
basic service models, namely Software as a service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). The three models are explained as follows.
Software as a Service (SaaS) was the first popular cloud computing service. Software
as a Service is a continuation of the evolution of the ASP (Application Service
Provider) concept. SaaS makes it easy for users to take advantage of software
resources by subscription, so SaaS users do not need to invest in either in-house
development or license purchases. SaaS is a cloud computing application model whose
target is focused on individual users, namely by utilizing a web-based interface that is
accessed through a web browser. For example, Goggle Docs from Google is an office
tool application similar to Microsoft Word, so users can process documents without
having to install Microsoft Office.
Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a service that provides ready-made modules that can
be used to develop an application that can only run on the platform. PaaS services
provide a place to create and deploy applications without knowing how many
processors or memory are needed for the application. In other words, PaaS offers
services that are more than just data storage. An example of a PaaS service is Google
AppEngine which offers services for users to develop and host web applications.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is one level below PaaS. IaaS is a service that
"rents" basic information technology resources including operating systems,
processing power, storage media, memory, network capacity and other services, which
can be used by tenants to run their applications.An example that offers IaaS services
is Amazon. Here users are given the freedom to perform various activities to the
server such as installing software, configuring access permissions and firewalls.
Based on the infrastructure manager, cloud computing is divided into four areas,
namely private cloud, community cloud, public cloud, and hybrid cloud. Management in the
private cloud is carried out by a particular institution, in the community cloud the
management is carried out by several institutions that support a community, while in the
public cloud a large industrial group manages by providing cloud computing services to the
wider community, while in the hybrid cloud the management is carried out by combining two
or more cloud computing infrastructure management in the private cloud, community cloud,
and public cloud (Christiani, 2018).
Implementation of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The concept and implementation of cloud computing shows that cloud computing
technology can be an evaluation in improving the quality of learning, the quality of
information, and can support all activities in higher education institutions and organizations
with more stability, and better control (Santiko, Rosidi, & Wibawa, 2017).
In the application of cloud computing, there are still a number of obstacles,
especially technical obstacles regarding the computing technology infrastructure, namely the
limited internet access in several regions in United States, both broadband and dial-up.
Limited internet access in a number of regions has caused this technology not to be widely
used. If used, its use is still limited to applications available on the internet (SaaS) and has not
touched the PaaS and IaaS models. In addition, the limited application of cloud computing in
the education sector in United States is caused by technical constraints, especially in
virtualization issues and doubts about the security guarantees provided by cloud computing.
The problem of lost or damaged data of higher education institutions can actually be
resolved if the data is not directly stored on a server that may be prone to damage, but is
stored in a relatively safe location. The option that may be chosen is that the college has a
computer infrastructure and intercomputer networks, or the college can utilize cloud
computing technology, of course, which is supported by the internet network, so that college
management does not need to provide expensive infrastructure, only enough to rent a number
of facilities needed in developing data applications from vendors that provide various cloud
computing services such as Amazon, Salezforce, Google, Microsoft, Akamaisun,
microsystems, symante, cmicrosft, and other services.
According to Maimunah (2012), the ideal cloud computing service has the following
5 (five) characteristics.
On-Demand Self-Services
Users can determine computing capabilities automatically without requiring
interaction with the service provider.
Broad Network Access
The service can be accessed from various devices without limitation of distance and
time as long as they are connected to the internet network.
Resource Polling
A cloud computing service must be available centrally and the service provider must
be able to share the load efficiently so that the system can be fully utilized to serve
several consumers using a multi-tenant model.
Rapid Elasticity
A computing service should be able to increase or decrease capacity according to
customer needs.
Measured Service
Cloud computing automatically controls and optimizes the use of computing
resources by increasing measurement capabilities at several levels according to the
type of service used.
Benefits of Cloud Computing in the Education Sector
The utilization of cloud computing technology in education has an important role,
especially in academic activities. The benefits that will be obtained if cloud computing is
implemented in the world of education include accessibility, namely data can be accessed
anytime and anywhere as long as it is connected to the internet network. Scalability, namely
cloud computing can increase data storage capacity without having to buy additional
equipment such as hard drives or the like. Security, cloud computing service providers
guarantee the security of existing data, for example when a natural disaster occurs the data
stored in cloud computing is of course safe even though the hard drive or hardware is
damaged (Sahi, 2019).
The application of cloud computing in the education sector provides many benefits.
All parties involved in it feel the benefits of cloud computing directly. For example, in a
university environment such as students, lecturers, IT staff, administrative staff, to the
university board of directors. The benefits of cloud computing that are felt are certainly not
the same, benefits in terms of improving the quality of teaching and learning media, benefits
from the economic side such as resource savings, and benefits in terms of ease of
maintenance of applications and infrastructure (Kurniawan, 2015).
Cloud Computing provides a variety of online services that can help universities to
support the learning process more broadly. The applications provided are generally web-
based applications that are easily accessible from anywhere, and anytime as long as they are
connected to the internet network. Cloud services accessed by users in a university
environment. Some examples of cloud computing services commonly used in universities are
Google Docs, Dropbox, and the like because these applications are easy to use, cheap, and
reliable. These services are commonly used by students in general, so they are more
adaptable if the teaching and learning process in the University environment uses these
applications.
Cloud computing offers several advantages that make it very attractive to be
implemented in the world of education, especially universities. Among them are high
availability, low response time, and scalability. Some common applications such as Google
Apps for Education or Microsoft Office 365 offer online applications to support user
productivity, such as the use of word processing, spread sheets, and presentations that can be
used in the classroom.
Therefore, the use of cloud computing is very important, especially in terms of
storing various data that is very important and requires very good security. Data storage using
ordinary storage media certainly has disadvantages, especially if the device used as data
storage is damaged or lost, while internet-based storage media or what is known as cloud
computing can be accessed anywhere and anytime without having fear of losing the storage
device (Dhika Akhirina, & Destiawati, 2019).
Conclusion
Cloud Computing is important to be applied to educational institutions. The use of
cloud computing-based technology in the education sector can increase efficiency and
effectiveness, so more insight into cloud computing is needed for lecturers and students. The
benefits of cloud computing, especially for educational institutions, include high availability,
large storage capacity, good accessibility, guaranteed data security, stability and reliable
systems, and operational cost savings.
