"With the development of the Internet, many companies around the world have new requirements for internet-based computing, and cloud computing is a new solution," says Dr Zhao Wei, vice president of high performance on-demand Solutions (Hipods), IBM's software division strategy team.
The era of cloud computing has come into our lives. Last November, IBM launched the Blue Cloud program in Shanghai to provide customers with the cloud computing (Cloud Computing). On February 1, 2008, IBM announced that it would set up its first cloud computing center (Cloud Computing Centre) in Wuxi Taihu New Town Science and Education Industrial park. IBM's Cloud Computing Center will support its development activities by providing China's emerging software companies with the ability to access a virtual computing environment. IBM and the Wuxi government have jointly announced that this will be the world's first commercial operation of the cloud computing center.
"With the development of the Internet, many companies around the world have new requirements for internet-based computing, and cloud computing is such a new solution." "IBM's cloud Computing center will be a powerful computing platform based on open hardware platform, open source code, Web2.0 technology," said Dr Zhao Wei, vice president of high performance on-demand Solutions (Hipods), IBM Software Division's strategic team. The establishment of the world's first commercial cloud computing center with the help of the Wuxi government will help China shift from a manufacturing economy to a service-oriented economy, thereby reducing energy consumption per unit of GDP and helping Wuxi build a world-class software park. ”
As a service that can be relied on for internet processing, cloud computing is at the centre of the industry's attention, not just to Ibm,sun, Google and Amazon, but to try or promote their own cloud computing technology. Also in the "Walk in the Clouds", "safe, simple" is obviously IBM distinguishes between rivals of the sharp weapon.
"Unlike other cloud computing technologies that can only provide development space for users, IBM's Blue Cloud technology allows users to build multiple applications," says Dr Zhao Wei, vice president of high performance on-demand solutions at IBM's software division's strategic team. In Wuxi, each company is sharing the cloud computing infrastructure, and the company will certainly want to make its operations more private. Many IBM services can form a shared virtual pool, where the software layer uses SOA technology to use these resources, and can be more secure and easy to build with tools such as rational, direct, and so on. ”
