Over the past years, implementation of and research on cloud computing in the eGovernment context have increased substantially. A wide range of benefits and challenges is suggested in the literature. However, these suggestions appear fragmented and disconnected and do not offer a clear overview of the main challenges and benefits. Therefore, there is a need for clarification about both benefits and challenges of cloud computing, especially in the eGovernment context. To address this need, the literature on cloud computing and eGovernment is reviewed in this paper. The findings show that despite the extensive number of benefits and challenges, some stand out from the rest. This paper presents an overview of these, explains them in detail, and suggests avenues for further research.
