Managing the cloud‐based software development outsourcing (CSDO) activities across the geographically distributed development sites are much challenging. This study aims to identify the success factors (SFs) for CSDO and prioritize them based on their significance. To achieve this objective, we conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) and survey study with industrial and academic experts. Finally, we applied the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) to develop the framework based on the prioritization of the identified SFs. We believe that the findings of this study will assist the industry practitioners and researchers in developing effective strategies for the successful implementation of CSDO activities.

使用层次分析法的基于云的软件开发外包因素的强大框架

跨地理位置分布的开发站点管理基于云的软件开发外包（CSDO）活动非常困难。本研究旨在确定CSDO的成功因素（SF），并根据其重要性对它们进行优先级排序。为了实现这一目标，我们与行业和学术专家进行了系统的文献综述（SLR）和调查研究。最后，我们应用了层次分析法（AHP）来开发基于已确定SF优先级的框架。我们相信，这项研究的结果将有助于行业从业者和研究人员制定有效实施CSDO活动的有效策略。
