    ICT Strategy Alignment Maturity for Effective IaaS Digital Transformation
    (International Journal of Scientific Research in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2025-07-23) Mutai, Joram Kiptoo; Etene, Yonah; Ronoh, Richard K.
    We argue for a more strategic approach to Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) digital transformation, grounded in ICT strategy alignment maturity. Many organizations struggle to effectively maturely align their ICT strategies with IaaS technologies, limiting their transformation success. This research investigates the pivotal role of ICT strategy alignment maturity in driving effective IaaS adoption and transformation. A quantitative survey was conducted in two universities in Kenya, and the data were analysed using descriptive statistics, inferential tests, and regression analysis. The findings highlight that mature alignment in ICT planning significantly influences the success of IaaS digital transformation. In addition, well-established ICT governance structures and strong business-IT skills development emerged as essential enablers of both alignment maturity and transformation outcomes. This study offers empirical insights and a renewed perspective on the strategic alignment of ICT and IaaS cloud technology, contributing to both theory and practice by illustrating how alignment maturity serves as a foundation for successful digital transformation in organizations.

    Performance in Layered Software Architectures: The case of customized organizational software
    (International Journal of Computer Trends and Technology, 2019-12-30) Etene, Yonah; Karani, Josphat M.
    Software architecture is the defining and structuring of a software solution that is capable of meeting technical and operational requirements. It is essential in the organization of a system into its components and helps guide the design of the overall system to ensure functionality of the components to achieve its effective performance. When components are layered, it makes it difficult for an organization to choose and customize the standard package software. This paper examined performance in layered software architecture and how to best achieve effective customization without affecting on the operations of an organization.
