Due to the globalization and increasing offshore sourcing, global supply chain management (GSCM) can be considered as a major problem for many companies. Similar to traditional supply chain management (TSCM), reducing the cost of manufacturing and procurement and decreasing the risks related to purchasing activities are the key goals of GSCM. Supply chain integration, which is widely considered as a vital factor determining the supply chain performance, for instance, reducing cost, improving responsiveness, increasing service level, and facilitating decision making, has attracted more and more attention. In this thesis, after a complete and quick revision of the Cloud computing and Supply Chain Management we move forward to explain the importance of using Cloud computing in SCM and at the second part we tried to do a literature review on the previous models and architectures presented in this are. Based on our literature review we identified the gaps not mentioned and targeted in the following models in order to make a combination of those models and present a more complete based on existing models.
