Abstract

This article introduces a model for cloud governance with a specific focus on its semantic aspects. It considers three dominant paradigms - the business-IT alignment paradigm, the governance paradigm, and the cloud paradigm. The model can be enhanced with specific tools to serve as a holistic framework for addressing governance of both traditional and cloud-based IT environments. The proposed consideration of semantic aspects within the model can enable a more feasible application of the model in complex architectural settings - both from the point of view of architecture assessment and architecture management.
