Abstract
This paper reports on a case study that was conducted on a large scale cloud service project that moved scientific simulation software to the cloud, one that used sensitive data. The study aimed to explore the challenges and practicalities of initiating and evaluating simulation as a cloud service. Action research was used to examine the nuances throughout the project as the service was moved from on-premise into a public cloud, lasting over one year from start to finish. The study was able to identify some emergent issues affecting initiation, technical security challenges and the evaluation of a significant change in a critical applications provisioning model.
