Abstract

New technologies emerge almost every day and they change how organizations and even governments operate. One of the technologies which had a great impact on business models is the cloud computing technology. Cloud computing impacts how resources and capabilities can be used to function effectively and efficiently. It allows organizations to operate in a competitive environment without focusing on scaling, maintenance, and failure. It became a key factor in IT vendors’ strategies and governments like US Apps, and The Kasumigaseki Cloud in Japan. This study will investigate the challenges for deploying cloud computing in the eHealth Context within developing countries. It will examine the doctors’ and managers’ evaluation of cost, security, infrastructure, management support and the importance of other challenges in deploying cloud computing in eHealth.

  • Public sector IT project challenges are typically rooted in a combination of insufficient stakeholder engagement, ineffective planning, technical misalignments, and a lack of institutional readiness.

    “Studies suggest that these challenges are typically rooted in a combination of insufficient stakeholder engagement, ineffective planning, technical misalignments, and a lack of institutional readiness (Liana et al., 2023;Mekawie & Yehia, 2021;Waheeb et al., 2023).”

    From PROJECT MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES IN PUBLIC SECTOR IT: A CASE STUDY IN PALU (2026) · cites this paper as Mekawie & Yehia, 2021

    The Results (page unavailable) identify management and healthcare-actor support, missing implementation procedures, limited skills, and outdated infrastructure as challenges to cloud deployment in Egyptian eHealth, particularly in the public sector. This supports much of the proposed combination, but the paper does not establish that these are typical causes of public-sector IT project challenges generally; it discusses stakeholder support rather than engagement specifically.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
