This Green/Cloud Computing mind map template evaluates cloud adoption across 9 dimensions with 68 nodes. It systematically compares cost effectiveness, energy consumption, security, and governance for IT decision-makers. Key branches include 'Cost effectiveness' (ROI vs on-site IT), 'Laws and Governance' (intellectual property ownership), and 'Metrics' (uptime, bandwidth scalability). The template also explores 'As-a-Service' models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and major 'Vendors' like Microsoft Cloud Services. Designed for IT managers and cloud architects, this cheat sheet helps assess trade-offs in topology, administration ease, and multi-tenancy energy savings.
