Utilization of Cloud Computing for Learning in the Pandemic Era of Covid 19

Abstract

—The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected human activities from various sectors, one of which is the education sector. In the face of this pandemic, educational institutions are instructed to conduct distance or limited learning. Distance learning can be done online by utilizing information and communication technology (ICT), one of which is cloud computing technology. This paper aims to identify and provide an overview of the use of cloud computing technology in learning in the era of the covid 19 pandemic. The method used in the presentation of this paper is the Literature Review methods. The number of relevant articles was obtained as many as 50 articles published in the 2017-2021 range. The results show that the utilization and use of cloud computing technology is currently one of the research trends, cloud computing-based learning can be in the form of e-learning or mobile and can be developed in combination with other technologies. The use of cloud computing technology in the education sector has many benefits, both during the pandemic and after this pandemic ends. stage, cloud platform selection, cloud resource management, CC mobile optimization, cloud capacity development, library based cloud, Power data mining system based on CC Hadoop platform, Effectiveness of cloud resources, scheduling methodology and limitations that must be overcome in CC.
