Yang Hongpeng: New model of cloud computing Innovation Enterprise Development

In 2011, cloud computing went from backstage to reception. Cloud computing technology in the application of Web services such as search engines, e-mail, online storage has been everywhere, but has never been the focus of attention as it is today. From the technical aspect, cloud computing technology already exists, cloud computing is the expansion of the virtualization technology, the evolution of distributed computing, the extension of SOA architecture, the centralized management of information resources and the embodiment of intelligent provisioning mechanism.

What distinguishes it from traditional it technology is that cloud computing brings about conceptual innovation. From a commercial point of view, the core concept of cloud computing is to provide computing resources in the form of services, users need to use and purchase, can better meet the rapid changes in organizational business and upgrade the needs of innovation. For the enterprise, the concept of innovation will inevitably bring significant business opportunities, this is the cloud can cause so much attention to the core reasons. On Sadie information, cloud Computing's main values for the enterprise include:

Enterprise Strategic level

Cloud computing is an important means to support the construction of intelligent enterprises. Enterprises in the acceleration to intelligent, efficient, in the process of reliable and green direction change, "cloud + End" becomes the first choice under the existing technical condition, cloud computing takes the role of "brain", fully excavates the potential value of the data, promotes the level of intelligent analysis and decision support, and facilitates the enterprise to take the data and other intangible assets to economic, The reliable way transforms into the tangible service, realizes the enterprise "the intelligent" operation.

Cloud computing brings the opportunity for business model innovation. Cloud computing has completely changed the traditional mode of IT business costs, further extending to break the traditional ideas of enterprise resource acquisition and service delivery, bring new investment model and development idea, promote the enterprise to understand the change of market environment, new observation angle, brand-new vision, The new development idea needs the enterprise to be able from the strategic point of view, establishes the business model which adapts with the environment change.

Organizational Control Level

Improve the group's control ability. Cloud computing is a good way to deal with the relationship between distribution and concentration, essentially through the integration of centralized resource allocation services, this model to promote enterprises, especially group-oriented enterprises to master business details and vertical integration, thus further strengthen the Group's control capacity.

More responsive to changes in application size. Cloud computing has great application flexibility, can dynamically expand and configure IT resources, promote fine management, focus on enterprise internal resource integration and optimization configuration, meet the application and user scale changes while greatly saving management costs.

Business Operation level

Cloud computing platform can provide more efficient and flexible, safe and reliable infrastructure, adapt to the management of massive information storage, processing, exchange and real-time data analysis, effective coordination of all aspects of business, the realization of information flow, business flows, capital flow of a high degree of integration, greatly improve the enterprise's resource optimization allocation capacity, Manage efficient and safe operations.

Cooperation and innovation, enhance competitive ability. Cloud computing adopts open full value chain collaborative innovation model, realizes the comprehensive collection, smooth transmission and efficient processing of information, establishes the information sharing transparent, the integrated standard, the powerful business cooperation and the interoperability platform, enables the enterprise to be more efficient collaboration, participates in the exchange for the biggest profit space.

Improve business efficiency. Through the large computing capacity of cloud computing, it will realize the functions of business owner data management, massive real-time data management, integrated information operation and supervision, geospatial information Service, production and control application integration, and fully support the construction of horizontal integrated and vertical management technical support system to improve the response to the service.

Service Support Level

Cloud computing brings a higher level of standardization of IT services. With the focus of the application trend of enterprise information system, cloud computing will play an important role in the unified management of resources, resource dynamic allocation, task distributed scheduling, and so on, resources like cloud free expansion, adapt to business changes, achieve high reliability and high scalability, provide more standardized services.

Green environmental protection, protect historical investment, reduce costs. Cloud computing using virtualization technology, to maximize the use of the original IT resources, and have the ability to load balance, so that resources are fully utilized; cloud computing support rich cloud equipment, is conducive to the use of thin clients, compared with traditional information terminals, energy saving and environmental protection, data security and reliable; Automate the management of various applications and operating systems to reduce human and management costs.

The impact of cloud computing on the enterprise will be gradually from IT system construction into business model change, but Chinese enterprises have not fully recognized this trend. According to the research of Sadie Information, Chinese enterprises still have a great shortage in the knowledge and application of cloud computing:

Enterprise Strategic level:

Following the changes in personal computers and the Internet, cloud computing is seen as the third it wave, and the core idea of cloud computing is not a new technology application, but a technological innovation as the starting point, which drives the fundamental change of enterprise management mode and business model. At present, the research on cloud computing focuses on the research fields of virtualization and parallel computing, and the most important thing is to understand the value of cloud computing from the strategic level.

2, IT support level:

On the It building level, cloud computing is a new and more consistent use of the model, hardware, platform, software are resources, and can serve as a service to users, the biggest difference between cloud computing and traditional mode is to achieve the unified management of resources, according to user needs to dynamically expand and configure, from the traditional mode to cloud computing, Generally need to go through a large concentration, standardization, cloud computing three steps. Although virtualization is one of the core technologies of cloud computing, virtualization and its core goal is to achieve the effective unified management of virtual resources, unified monitoring and unified deployment scheduling, the same problem exists in the application of distributed computing technology, the enterprise full application of cloud computing still need a long time to build.

3. Frontier Research:

Compared to the traditional enterprise IT construction, cloud computing in a higher level to achieve professional division of labor, cooperation and sharing, "services" to replace the "product" to the enterprise business operations, it construction, IT staff with a huge impact. For business operations, the internal and external links more closely, open innovation and internal innovation go hand in hand, the customer drive is embodied in the whole value chain of the enterprise; for it, resources are no longer limited to the self-built resources but to all the resources that can be expanded and available through the network; Cloud computing requires IT professionals to shift from development operations to higher-level management functions, becoming more and more connected to the business, and working with internal and external management as a basic condition for evaluating IT professionals. In this case, enterprises need to be targeted to carry out business research, construction mode innovation, management performance, human resources planning, talent cultivation and other aspects of work to adapt to future changes.

Whether the enterprise is well prepared, the advent of the cloud computing era is inevitable, the migration of information system cloud will become the focus of informatization construction in the next few years. For enterprises, in fully aware of the impact of cloud computing, and do a good job of basic research, technical preparation, but also need to develop a rigorous application strategy. For this, Sadie Information put forward three points of advice.

1, the establishment of strict standard standards is a prerequisite for the success of cloud applications. Enterprise Cloud implementation of the successful premise is to develop a set of strict process specifications, technical specifications and system construction norms and standards, on the basis of the pilot implementation of standards and norms, in accordance with the actual situation and business development trends, to form more standardized and more reasonable work norms and work standards, and under the guidance of norms, the formation of the standard requirements of the project, So as to quickly and effectively promote the implementation of promotional work, the end of the enterprise cloud applications to achieve the goal.

2, the establishment of a sound organizational structure is an important guarantee for the smooth development of the project. Cloud computing is not only a technology, but also a business model of innovation. In the Enterprise Cloud application and promotion period, must have a sound and perfect application of organizational structure, such as the establishment of special working groups, leading groups, working groups, implementation groups, and in the organization and business to ensure the smooth progress of application projects, the implementation of the establishment of all levels of technical, business, management team, and responsible for on-site implementation, Development and management work, the supervision team set up various professional supervision groups, responsible for the whole project at all levels of supervision, to ensure the smooth implementation of the project.

3. It is an effective way to avoid project risk by clarifying the emphasis and level of application promotion. Enterprise Cloud application Construction is a high-risk project, there are risks such as business model and demand, management strength, technical foundation inconsistency and so on, need full project demonstration and careful organization. Prior to the implementation of the project, it is necessary to define the priorities and work order, formulate detailed promotional strategies and promote implementation plans. In the promotion process, learn from experience and lessons, improve the enterprise cloud application methods and norms, optimize the promotion of work strategies and work deployment.
