Cloud Computing Adoption Strategy Planning at Agricultural Central Data and Information System, Ministry of Agriculture with Roadmap for Cloud Computing Adoption (ROCCA) Model

The goal of this study is to help Center for Agricultural Data and Information Systems (Pusdatin), Ministry of Agriculture, Republic of Indonesia, on the development of a strategy for private cloud computing adoption. Pusdatin sees cloud computing as a technological innovation opportunity that promises lower costs, provides flexibility and optimization of resource, and ease of monitoring and management of servers and applications that can become a solution for the problems and concerns faced today. However, Pusdatin is faced with questions of how to properly adopt cloud technologies in their environment and gain all those benefits. This study uses Roadmap for Cloud Computing Adoption (ROCCA) model for the adoption strategy development. ROCCA adoption model consists of 5 phases namely the analysis, planning, adoption, migration, and management. Data were gathered from an interview, direct observation, and running several discovery tools within Pusdatin's IT environment. Data then processed through each phase of ROCCA model that produces the analysis, establishment of cloud program team, criteria, cloud architecture, migration steps, timeline, and priority that forms the detailed strategy for adopting cloud computing. The results of this study are recommended strategic steps to simplify and accelerate the implementation of cloud computing technology at Pusdatin.
