    Traditional and utility computing models are generally better suited than cloud for global IT projects due to geographic limitations of cloud. While cloud computing has benefits of lower costs and no impact from geographic scope, traditional models using physical infrastructure are still widely used and work better for projects spanning large areas across borders where cloud access and reliability could be issues. The most appropriate computing model depends on the specific geographic scope and needs of the project.

    Discussion Topic 3: Computing Models for Global Applications

    I believe that global IS/IT projects tend to be better suited for traditional or utility computing
    models and I believe that geographic scope of a project does necessarily suggest one model over the
    other. One computing model cannot suits for the global applications. Depending upon the different
    geographic scope, different computing models would suit best for the applications. Traditional
    computing is among the most popular method for decades. Traditional computing or utility computing
    model is a service provisioning model in which service provider charges their customer for specific
    usage rather than a flat rate and provide the computing resources and infrastructure management
    available to the customer[ CITATION SGa99 \l 1033 ]. Like any other models, if focuses on efficient
    use of resources and minimize the costs. However traditional computing models works on physical
    hard drives and website servers, and today world is moving towards the cloud computing models
    [ CITATION PWa20 \l 1033 ].

    Traditional computing model costs more for the global IS/IT projects. For global projects,
    cloud computing models should be used to save investments on businesses. However, saying that
    geographic scope does not matter, any computing model can be used. That is not right. There are
    limitations in terms of geographic scope. An IT project with a geographic scope encompasses a
    specific protected area, while some actions relates to the external of the project area. My opinion
    about cloud computing model would be that it does not have any impact of geographic scope of a
    project and can be implemented across the globe.
