In the era of cloud computing it is necessary for nations to actively support this type of technology if they are to foster the industry and ensure that it is attractive for businesses to establish themselves domestically.
However, some countries are better equipped to help businesses adopt cloud-based services than others and a new ranking report from BSA has revealed the best and worst places in the world to use cloud computing.
Twenty four countries were assessed by BSA and PC Advisor reports that this group accounts for almost four fifths of the world’s tech market, which makes them appropriate choices in this instance.
The most cloud-friendly nation as determined by this year’s ranking was Japan, which also held that title in last year’s report. The reasons for this include its excellent broadband infrastructure and impressive legislative cloud that allows it to deal with cyber-crime effectively.
