      abstract = {The manufacturing industries continue to change with the current dynamics of technology and the growing competition, which requires flexibility, manageability, and innovation. Cloud computing, or ?cloudification? as it has become known, has risen as a key tool for gaining competitive advantage through offering integrated solutions for processes, collaboration, and analytics. In this paper, the author examines the contributions of cloudification in manufacturing transformations through resource allocation, maintenance prediction, and analysis. Then, this study presents an empirical evaluation of the best practices for advancing cloud solutions and the opportunities in cloud computing discussed in the literature, which are enumerated as follows. The implication drawn from the study is that the success and challenges inherent in cloud solutions for manufacturing are explained, and recommendations for organizations that seek better operation outcomes are given.},
