Now, global cloud computing has sailed into the fast lane. The major manufacturers are in the deployment of cloud services, after years of hard work to carry out technology development and industry preparation, 2011 China's cloud computing began to enter a pragmatic development of the track, the Chinese mobile in November released the big cloud 1.5 version of the system platform, has now implemented distributed file systems, distributed mass data warehouses, Distributed computing framework, cloud computing system management, cloud storage System, flexible computing systems, parallel data mining tools and other key functions. Sun Shaoling, deputy director of China Mobile Communications Research Institute, said that the current China Mobile IT support system is one of the world's largest database, will be released next year 2.0 version.
The conflict between personalization and common needs
According to Sun Shaoling, the big Cloud 1.5 version is in the Big Cloud 1.0 version of the machine was optimized. The entire product system has not changed much. The release of the Big cloud 1.5 version offers two new products, one similar to Amazon's EBS, the other is the newly developed BI PaaS, the new features offered by the two products are mainly for the future of centralized business platform to provide SaaS services, Solve the contradiction between local demand and centralized data storage and processing, which is the contradiction between personalization and common needs.
Prior to the China Mobile Research institute Dean Huang has said that when China Mobile "big Cloud" stepped into the 1.5 version of the era, that is, from the private cloud gradually to the era of public cloud, the 1.5 version reflects China Mobile cloud computing Open source, open attitude, further supplement, Improved 1.0 version of IaaS product line and analytical PAAs product line, and added resilient block storage and business intelligence platform features, with more efficient, more stable, more reliable, more friendly and so on new features.
Reducing the informatization cost of small and medium-sized enterprises
Often small and medium-sized enterprises can not afford to build their own IT systems consumed by the cost, and cloud computing is to improve the informatization level of SMEs is a powerful tool. Sun Shaoling that small and medium-sized enterprises in the choice of enterprise Informatization should consider more SaaS services, which can reduce the cost of enterprise IT and rapid upgrade the level of information. Because enterprise demand is relatively simple, the SaaS model in cloud computing is more suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises.
The changes that cloud computing brings to IT companies
Cloud computing brings two things to the IT industry, one is business model, cloud computing power and storage into the public infrastructure, the original hardware or software in the form of IT resources from the sale of the sexual intercourse into a service delivery mode. The second is the technical aspect. Cloud computing is about centralization and resource sharing, so it is not the same as the original IT system for the scalability of a system.
The biggest difference between cloud computing and existing application services and management services is its flexibility. After virtualization, data centers can save money by economies of scale when serving customers. This is due to fluctuations in the demand for resources, resources include: computing, network, storage and so on.
