2014 It four kings: Cloud, Mobile, big data and social network

Looking at the forecasts of the three major research institutions, we all mentioned http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/33721.html "The Four Great kings of the >2014 year: cloud, mobile, big data and social networks, will have a greater impact.

Starting with the new year, let's look at how you can predict the trend of IT development in the 2014.

Looking at Gartner, IDC and the three major research institutions such as the mic, we invariably mention 2014 years of it four kings: Cloud, Mobile, large data and social networks, will bring greater impact.

Gartner argues that the top 4-cloud computing, which has evolved over several years, has driven mobility, social networking and the popularity of big data.

Cloud computing constructs a resilient IT infrastructure that provides an endless stream of computing power, so smart phones and flat-panel terminals, which do not require strong computing power, can achieve a wide range of innovative applications by helping the computing power provided by the cloud.

With cloud computing technology, Facebook can create social networking sites that are shared around the world, not because they are too heavily used to expand, or because technology limits the expansion of social networks, so Facebook quickly penetrates the world.

With the hands of an intelligent mobile phone, all the times in Facebook speech, clock, human behavior are corresponding to the network, forming a huge database of human behavior.

Not just Facebook, a social network on the Web, is a large database that is not seen in history, full of human interaction, Life records, preferences, opinions and so on. Such abundant resources, for many people, like gold, there are all kinds of opportunities, therefore, how to excavate the urgent demand for gold, but also to promote the development of large data analysis applications.

The four Kings, cloud, mobile, social network and big data, interact.

The cloud is fuelling mobility and social networks, and without cloud computing it is hard to build a world-wide network of services, so the impact of social networking and mobility is bound to be compromised.

Mobility enables the scalability of cloud applications and the effects of social networks to the fullest. If the smart action device is not friendly interface, so that everyone loves to use, then cloud computing is also heroes, Cloud Room is turned into mosquito Hall. Without a mobile device, people's behavior will not be all on the network, then the social network can only show the human part of social behavior, it can not be a gold mine.

The big data--the killer apps in the cloud era--are built on cloud computing architectures to play fast processing and analyzing huge amounts of data. And because social networks accumulate a lot of data, big data comes in handy.

It is full of opportunities and challenges. For example, many enterprises have been resisting the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device), the staff of the trend of equipment, in the it four big kings together under, is more and more difficult to resist. Some companies with strong financial resources once thought of the ultimate solution, and developed their own company-specific mobile phones, in order to completely eliminate the security risks of mobile devices and to meet the needs of employees to use smart phones. But in the end it won't work.

The impact of the four it drives intertwined, now seems to be a ripe situation, no one can stop.

Interestingly, in the past we looked at the various it forecasts from research institutes, and felt that it was far from us, especially in Taiwan, that the speed of it applications was usually a few years slower than in the advanced countries. However, I believe that the vast majority of people are not unfamiliar with these four forces, because many phenomena in the past two years have already happened around us. In particular, these four driving forces are now fermented together, the challenge to the enterprise is even greater.

We used to look at it forecasts may be the majority of the mentality, but as it developed faster and more extensive impact level, these it forecasts to become a real opportunity, but also come fast. It's not foaming, it's really coming.
