Abstract
Through this research, we seek to demonstrate the impact of cloud computing in supporting e-learning in Asiacell Communications Company. To answer the research objective, a hypothetical scheme was put forward that reflects the nature of the correlation and influence relationships between cloud computing with its dimensions represented by (Infrastructure as a Service, Platform as a Service, Applications as a Service) as variables. Independent and e-learning as a dependent variable, and a set of main and sub-hypotheses emerged from that scheme, and these hypotheses were analyzed using a set of statistical methods and data processing obtained through the answers of the respondents in the Asiacell company, the research sample, through the questionnaire form.
Asiacell Communications Company (Northern Region) was chosen as the field of study, and a sample of specialists in the field of informatics in that company was chosen as a sample population, and the size of the sample was determined by using the intentional stratified sampling method by focusing on experts in the field of informatics in the company, and (64) questionnaire, and (60) questionnaires were retrieved, i.e. (93.7%), valid for analysis and conducting the required tests, through the use of the statistical package program (SPSS).
The study reached a set of conclusions, the most important of which is the impact quality of cloud computing in its dimensions (beneficiary, platforms, infrastructure, and applications) in supporting E-learning at Asiacell Telecom Company. Based on the conclusions reached by the research, the researcher presented a set of recommendations, the most important of which is to work on providing a highly reliable data structure that combines many technologies and business models such as virtualization, distributed computing, and pay-per-use models.
