Against the background of recent economic realities, certainly one of the bigger forces that is affecting businesses worldwide is cloud computing technology, whose advantages consist of agility, Cost savings, time to market, Competitive edge, time to capability,Flexibility, Sustainability, etc. The purpose of this study was to add to the body of knowledge that Might be implemented through researchers, IT organizations and businesses, alike to attain best results through focusing on factors of IT flexibility (connectivity, modularity, and compatibility) specific to cloud based services and solutions. The study findings provided statistical evidence that factors of IT flexibility (connectivity, modularity, and compatibility) specific to cloud computing have strong positive correlations on IT effectiveness. Also, the combination of three factors of IT flexibility, precise to cloud computing, explained 67% of the variance of IT effectiveness. The Connectivity factor predicted of IT effectiveness the most while the compatibility the less contribute to the prediction of IT effectiveness.
