BUSINESS RESEARCH
Reflective Journal Scope
This report discusses the impact of cloud computing on the business performance. In
addition, it also discusses the challenges that may be faced by the organization at the time of
implementation of cloud computing. Along with this, it also demonstrates about the strategies
that will be effective to overcome the impact of cloud computing on the business
performance. This reflective journal has a wider scope because it helps to understand the
importance of cloud computing for the performance of the business.
Critically and depth of learning reflections reflective analysis
1. Evaluate the effectiveness and your usefulness of the learning experience
I gained my understanding about the impact ofcloud computing on the business
performance. Furthermore, I observed that cloud computing can influence both individuals as
well as the organization. I learned about three kinds of services that were provided by cloud
computing to the individual like SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS. I understood that cloud computing can
support to an organization for improving their relationship among the diverse department of
the firm so as to improving the accessibility of information. In addition, I also created my
consciousness about major benefits of cloud computing in the business operation that is
related to the security of data. Further, I also learned that an organization is not responsible
to secure the confidential data in the cloud computing because dealers of the cloud are
responsible to keep the data safe.
2. Explain how this learning process will be useful to you
I will implement my understanding and perception to make new research in the upcoming
period. I observed about the motivation of this research. I analyzed that most of the authors
have research on the impact of mobile computing on the IT organizations and industry but
there is lack of research about the impact of cloud computing on business performance. I
created my depth understanding about the potential gaps of research that facilitated me to

enhance my career in the research field for the upcoming period. In addition to this, I also
understood that the cloud computing can be essential to keep the flow of information in the
business operation systematically. Along with this, it can also be evaluated that cloud
computing can play a major role to precise the flow of information which enabled the
organization to simply access that data (Gangwar, et al., 2015). In oppose to this, I gained my
knowledge about the project objective as well as project scope in a systematic way. In
addition to this, I created my awareness about the research question and hypothesis of
research that can be crucial for the research. Moreover, I also analyzed that knowledge about
the development of hypothesis can be imperative for improving my research skills (Oliveira,
et al., 2014).In addition, it can be evaluated that the creation of research question can be
appropriate to obtain the favorable and reliable result regarding research issue.
3. Describe objectively what happened in the learning process
Beside this, I gained my knowledge about primary and secondary research questions that
were considered in the research question. Along with this, I created my understanding about
the research methodology and research design which will be imperative to determine the
tools and techniques of research issues. At the same time, I also gained my awareness about
the inductive approach that will ensure the researcher to develop the conceptual
understanding systematically. Furthermore, it can be evaluated that the deductive approach is
used prove and reject the research hypothesis (Gangwar, et al., 2015).In addition, I also
increased my knowledge about two kinds of methods such as quantitative and qualitative
research method. Furthermore, a quantitative research method can help to evaluate the data
by using the scientific method, economic information, and statistics data. I also learned that
quantitative research his generally implemente to explain the numeric data that is determined
through mathematical tools.
