This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Workshop on E-Business (WeB 2015), held in Fort Worth, Texas, USA, on December 12, 2015. The theme of WeB 2015 was “Leveraging Service Computing and Big Data Analytics for E-Commerce”, and thus the workshop provided an interactive forum by bringing together researchers and practitioners from all over the world to explore the latest challenges of next-generation e-Business systems and the potential of service computing and big data analytics. The 11 full and 17 short papers, which were selected from 45 submissions to the workshop, addressed a broad coverage of technical, managerial, economic, and strategic issues related to e-business, with emphasis on service computing and big data analytics. They employed various IS research methods such as case study, survey, analytical modeling, experiments, computational models, and design science.

With high hopes that the worst of the financial crisis is now behind us, our efforts looking forward must be more vigilant. Change is constant in the electronic business management landscape and we must continue to look for organizational efficiencies, competitive strength, strategic differentiation and value creation in both int- organizational and collaborative settings. Seeking new and innovative application areas of information technology, in general, and e-business management solutions, in particular, while simultaneously critically evaluating and constantly challenging our own research contributions, methods and practices. It is for these reasons (and many more) that we are particularly excited about and grateful for the collection of papers included in this volume, LNBIP 58, on Sustainable e-Business Management. The papers selected in this volume address these emerging e-business issues and have been organized into three research lines: e-Business Models and IS in Financial Markets, e-Commerce Use and Design, and e-Business Research Issues and Methods. We are delighted to kick off the first group of papers e-Business Models and IS in Financial Markets with a study by Masao Kakihara of Yahoo Research in Japan, proposing a dynamic revenue model framework and design. This section also includes a fresh look into two pressing e-business areas with Doerr, Benlian, Vetter and Hess’s examination of content provider pricing of music as a service and Dutta and Menon’s interesting study of the determinants of customer acquisition and e-tailer revenue.
