Cloud computing Expert: Data center forwarding to service architecture

Flying Elephant Network (Tri Yuxian/Wen) the continuous development of cloud computing to the IDC industry has brought new opportunities for development, cloud computing has become the biggest driver of IDC industry transformation and upgrading. Sun Hui, Deputy Secretary-General of the cloud, believes that traditional data centers face daunting challenges and that the entire data center is moving toward a service architecture. Traditional data centers are confronted with three major problems of cost, quality and speed in it supply chain. Sun Hui that traditional data centers have too much initial investment in cost and low IT infrastructure utilization, adding additional operating costs. In terms of quality, business losses are due to insufficient capacity and efficiency and disruption of it facilities. In addition, the traditional data center can not support the business in time, low storage efficiency can not meet the high speed business has led to the reduction of customer service satisfaction. "So we believe that the entire data center is moving towards a service-oriented architecture." "Sun Hui that, with the rapid development of business needs, the need for more flexible IT infrastructure construction, we need to constantly improve the IT infrastructure construction model, management concepts, technical means and so on." "There will be four important trends in future data center construction." Sun Hui explained. The first is the transformation of the construction operation model to the integration mode. More and more manufacturers have put forward a concept--container data center, integrated solution. For users, easy deployment, simple management of data is more conducive to centralization and sharing. Second, data center IT infrastructure resources to accelerate the "cloud". The use of virtualization, intelligent management to promote the data center from isolated devices to the sharing of devices, to achieve resource "pooling" management, reduce the complexity of operation and maintenance and cost. The third trend is the way in which operational management of the entire data center is becoming automated. "Traditional human management of data centers, the response speed is difficult to meet the needs of business innovation." Coupled with the increase of it complexity, the need to rely on management tools and methods, more and more data centers in the emergence of third-party service providers, more and more data center management software was born, more and more data centers appear unattended or remote management mode. Sun Hui explained. The last trend is the application of the data center to the green energy-saving technology gradually. Server virtualization, storage automation and the introduction of SSD, network equipment Intelligent can achieve local energy saving, and the data center as the overall goal to achieve energy saving is becoming an important direction of development.
