Abstract

Cloud Computing is a service that allows users to access applications from anywhere in the world. Users can access content from the cloud independently of the infrastructure, regardless of where the service is hosted or how it is delivered. This service uses an infrastructure consisting of data centers that are monitored and maintained by content providers 24/7. Cloud Computing can be seen as a paradigm shift in computing and is a disruptive computing paradigm that requires major changes in many fields of engineering, including computer science. In this study, the use of cloud computing applications by academics was evaluated using the Technology Acceptance Model perspective after training sessions with academics working at Necmettin Erbakan University, Konya. The level of acceptance of cloud computing technologies by academics was investigated using an experimental design. The research was conducted by collecting data from 123 academics. The collected data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank and Kruskal Wallis tests. The results show that there is an increase in the attitude of academics towards cloud computing applications. Additionally, it was found that all dimensions of the Technology Acceptance Model are effective on the intentions of academics to use cloud computing applications.

Akademisyenlerin bulut bilişim yolculuğu: Teknoloji kabul modeli ışığında bir araştırma

Abstract

Bulut Bilişim, kullanıcıların dünya genelinde herhangi bir yerden uygulamalara erişmelerine olanak tanıyan bir hizmettir. Kullanıcılar, hizmetin nerede barındırıldığına veya nasıl teslim edildiğine bakılmaksızın içeriğe altyapıdan bağımsız olarak buluttan erişebilirler. Bu hizmet, içerik sağlayıcılar tarafından 7/24 izlenen ve bakımı yapılan veri merkezlerinden oluşan bir altyapı kullanır. Bulut Bilişim, bir bilgi işlem paradigması değişimi olarak görülebilir ve bilgisayar alanı dahil olmak kaydıyla mühendisliğinin birçok alanında büyük değişiklikler gerektiren yıkıcı bir bilgi işlem paradigmasıdır. Bu çalışmada, Konya Necmettin Erbakan Üniversitesinde görev yapan akademisyenlerle yapılan eğitimler sonrası Teknoloji Kabul Modeli perspektifi kullanılarak akademisyenlerin bulut bilişim uygulamalarının kullanımı değerlendirilmiştir. Akademisyenlerin bulut bilişim teknolojilerini kabul düzeyleri deneysel bir tasarım ile araştırılmıştır. Araştırma, 123 akademisyenden veri toplanarak yürütülmüştür. Toplanan veriler Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralar ve Kruskal Wallis testleri ile analiz edilmiştir. Sonuçlar, akademisyenlerin bulut bilişim uygulamalarına yönelik tutumlarında bir artış olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca, Teknoloji Kabul Modeli'nin tüm boyutlarının, akademisyenlerin bulut bilişim uygulamalarını kullanma niyetlerine etkili olduğu görülmüştür.
