Market-leader ERPs and cloud computing: a proposed architecture for an efficient and effective synergy

This paper deals about exploiting the possible synergies between Cloud Computing and Market Leader ERPs: Starting from the existing situation of Cloud Computing, ERPs and based on major player’s recent declarations, is it really possible to merge benefits from cloud computing and market leader ERPs? Is it possible for instance for the most popular of these products, to work in a cloud as its managers theorise and gain from cloud benefits? The Authors’ theory, as stated before, is that it’s feasible. And based on their international, over 15 years-long experience especially on Retail and Fashion projects, they propose a possible architecture suitable for instance for retail chains.
