Lenovo focuses on the IaaS level of cloud computing

Cloud computing is the future of it. In the face of the huge cloud computing market, Zheng repeatedly emphasized in the interview process that Lenovo focused on enterprise IT infrastructure solutions. For different industries, the understanding of cloud computing is not the same. For example, the Internet, government industry focused on the public cloud/industry cloud, companies focused on building their own private cloud. "Lenovo is exploring these two different solutions," he said, "for the infrastructure level of cloud computing, which is currently a cabinet server; future Lenovo will launch a container server to help customers quickly deploy large cloud computing." According to Tenkine reporter, Lenovo is now also in other partners to do their own cloud platform solutions.

The corresponding need for more distributed data storage scenarios. There is also a change in the need for the entire IT infrastructure. Lenovo is now based on the needs of users to introduce a number of applicable products, and this is Lenovo research and development of the storage server is a motivation. "According to reporters, Lenovo and EMC's joint venture will release a series of NAS-based storage products to meet customer's growing demand for large data."

Thinkserver is just getting started in the world

Since June, Lenovo has launched the Thinkserver brand, announced the establishment of a joint venture with EMC, and set up a new enterprise-class product group EPG ... Lenovo fully exerting the strategic layout of enterprise-level product market has become clearer and better.

According to Zheng, thinkserver in the world is just at the beginning of the stage. "The Thinkserver brand accounts for 85% of China's revenue, while Lenovo's PC business, China's global share has fallen to 40%." Looking at China's server market, its market is less than 10% of the world's size. "First of all, China's market share to consolidate and stabilize, Lenovo internal one called OBC plan, will be the main investment into enterprise-level development." The size of the research and development team has doubled. Lenovo will establish enterprise-class product development centers in the United States, China and Taipei. To support Lenovo's faster growth in the world's non-China business. "Zheng said.

Zheng on the road of overseas development of thinkserver optimistic attitude, he believes that Lenovo in the domestic "mass consumption" market started, from this point of view to open up the enterprise-level market is a certain degree of difficulty, but in foreign countries, think of the brand more business sense, If we take full advantage of Lenovo's resources and foundation abroad, and become one of the top suppliers of x86 servers in the world in 2015, this goal is just around the corner.
