Huayun Data Cao Jie: The Beast has come, cloud is the IDC development path

A round of financing amounts to tens of millions of yuan, the B-round financing obtains SIG, Intel invests 50 million US dollar Huayun data, its innovation mode is "the traditional IDC turns the cloud and to the software company carries on the cloud". As a force in the domestic cloud computing industry, the representative of IDC Cloud, CSDN Cloud computing has made in-depth reports on the Huayun data development path, technical means and industrial viewpoints. It is also from the Huayun data enterprise executives, these decades of IDC veterans, we can observe the domestic IDC industry is undergoing drastic changes.

Huayun Data Vice President Cao Jie

Remember Huayun, vice president of data architecture and resources Guo, said that Huayun's transformation in the Year (2010), referred to "the entire IDC circle is less than 15% of gross margin." Now the figure is falling. January 2015, the Ninth China IDC industry annual ceremony, Huayun data Vice President Cao Jie said: "IDC is now the price of cabbage, very high cost, very little margin." If the 2014-year business growth is below 40%, it can easily be eliminated in this change. ”

IDC Cloud to have a way out

The market is still very large. But the high-speed growth time window is no longer to the simple IDC (resource-type traditional hosting, host business) open, but to the cloud computing services.

Cloud computing is coming, resources are not the only way to win IDC.


Room is no longer a bottleneck. China already has 4 million square meters of room, millions of cabinets, 10 million physical hosting capacity.


bandwidth is no longer a bottleneck. Content and applications are rapidly turning to cloud computing, which makes it possible for services and applications to call networks, compute, and store resources directly.

What is the root cause? The cloud basically reduced the overall use cost of the computer room. Cloud computing Conservative 30 times-fold reuse, 1 cabinets cloud computing service capabilities can replace the traditional IDC30 cabinet 300 physical host. IDC managed a single cabinet annual income of 100,000, the same customer base cloud computing stand-alone cabinet revenue can reach 1 million. In addition, cloud computing service delivery and maintenance automation level is much higher than traditional physical host hosting, instant delivery through the web to facilitate customers and operators. Various advantages, cloud computing trend has been formed.

But operators are making a big transition to cloud computing. On the one hand, IDC bosses are less knowledgeable about cloud computing, and cloud computing operations are more complex than IDC's; On the other hand, it's the right hand, because cloud computing means a big reduction in the revenue value of the unit's products. "Confusion and confusion have become the common feelings of the 2014IDC circle." ”

In Cao Jie view: "Facing the fast walking peers, some hardware manufacturers, system integrators, large-scale Internet enterprises, the competition, growth of less than 40% IDC Enterprises will face the fate of the relentless elimination of the market." Most IDC operators have missed the window of time, the scourge has come. China's 60 trillion yuan per year of GDP,IDC and cloud computing is to support the 60 trillion yuan output value of the information infrastructure. Now IDC market share is now about more than 30 billion, the international view, only accounted for 10%. With the rapid development of information scale, only the realization of IDC cloud, can have a huge space for development. According to the existing IDC room size estimates, cloud computing Center Cloud mainframe of the annual output value of up to 500 billion yuan, is currently IDC 17 times times the annual output value. It is expected that such a process will be completed within 5 years. ”

How to achieve

with cloud computing service provider

The transformation of IDC itself into a cloud computing service provider is a way out. But the other way out is clearly a bigger market, working with cloud computing services providers. But the question is: Will the IDC party lose control? Cao Jie said: "No." I have always stressed that you just have to do a good job, you do things others do not good, the market is definitely yours. For instance, Coca-Cola and Wal-Mart who can eat who? Only if you do well enough and have ambitions to expand to other technology markets will there be direct competition. ”

In his view: cloud computing itself in the 1.0 era, each family has a different problem. The nature of the frequent cloud service downtime is a matter of stability, especially because of the lack of rigorous process in IDC's resources. Compare the technical direction of the two:

cloud computing, cost and service optimization: Cost optimization of cloud computing system hardware, and optimization of costs in architecture and layout. Cloud computing systems are optimized for performance systems and functions, and are optimized for operational maintenance.


IDC, Cost and service optimization: Reduce computer room, power, bandwidth, IP address, operation dimension, marketing and management costs. Through the software definition IDC, strengthens the IDC Operation Automation measure, realizes the service optimization.

When the IDC realizes the cloud, through the Web instant delivery, realizes the cloud service the delivery and the maintenance automation level, and forms in the interior and the cloud computing service provider support mechanism system, can realize the docking with both sides better. On this road, the Huayun data is both a practitioner and a platform-serving party. From cloud host control, distributed storage, OpenStack tuning, online charge calculation, omni-directional API services, Huayun has implemented more than 20 cloud computing nodes, covering all the key Internet nodes in the country, and aiming at the pain point in the cloud, the IDC process will be modular, The transition experience is summed up as a practical scheme of 13 cloud scenarios.

The

Cao Jie has great confidence in the IDC cloud: "From 2012 years of less than million cabinets, to July 2014 4 million cabinets, and now 7 million cabinets, cloud-driven IDC development speed alarming." The convergence of IaaS and PAAs is inevitable, and 2015 will be a turning point. We believe that the IDC cloud will be one of the most promising business. We have achieved this by ourselves, and will help more IDC enterprises to create niche products suitable for market segments, to achieve the success of cloud computing strategy. The
