Abstract
Cloud computing solves the problem of real time demand information and visibility at different location by which information can be delivered with reliability, scalability and flexibility between the supplier and customer. Logistics network requires effective information flow for technical support by which logistics infrastructures can be totally utilized and tracked the information collection, transmission and operation. Cloud is fast growing technology which can effectively reduce the intermediate cost of flow of information and improve the link between the logistics partners and customers. This paper analyzes the advantages of cloud based logistics network and defines in which way a logistics network manages Information Flow Control (IFC) over the cloud, which allows the logistics network to do work effectively.
