Chaoven: The Cloud computing revolution and the opportunity of China's technological rise

Although no one has been able to answer the "Needham puzzle" Until now, Guckere, director of the Joseph Needham Institute, has not lost faith in China from the point of view of Needham's deathbed. "Mr. Needham, through his years of understanding of China and the Chinese people, is convinced that China can rise again, that a country with such a great culture, a country with such a great people, will make a great contribution to the world civilization again," he said. ”

The scientific and technological revolution of mankind is realized through the formation of logic, and the process of constructing logic is done in the virtual world. Before the advent of computers, the human brain was the only device to create a virtual world. But now, the computer, the Internet unlimited expansion of the human brain virtual world processing capacity, the new technology revolution has come.

1. What the cloud computing revolution will change

Human beings are in a special time and space period, the nature and human society will face the major adjustment process of parameters. The cloud computing revolution is the result of human's choosing to adjust the parameters actively, although people do not understand the full face of cloud computing revolution, but they are ready to deal with the great changes in the world view and epistemology.

Although the scientific and technical personnel in the description of the wisdom of the Earth, but only to emphasize the relevance of all things in the world, but as the internet to change people's view of the world, the wisdom of the earth is through technical means to change people's world view and epistemology, people can learn from the intelligent Earth System The interdependent existence relationship between man and nature.

On cloud computing, there is no clear unified definition, different enterprises according to their own technology and interests to propose different definitions, like elephant, no right or wrong. Chaoven, a member of the China Electronic Society's cloud computing expert committee, believes that cloud computing is an application-intensive, http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/18671.html "> The hardware and software are connected according to a certain organization form, and the virtual Resource Service set which is the smallest and most effective is created by dynamic adjustment of the organization form with the change of application demand.

2. How to define the difference between revolutionary technology and common technological innovation

The research of science and technology is actually the process of human knowing the intrinsic nature of things in the physical world. Because of the level of personal knowledge of the researcher and the angle difference of observing things, the logical form of their formation is different. These logical forms are recorded in symbolic form and become scientific and technological achievements.

If the scientific and technological achievements only add new content to the original results, they belong to the common technological innovation. For example, the current Chinese enterprises to develop cloud computing products, if still using foreign distributed technology, virtualization technology, belongs to scientific and technological innovation. This innovation is technically not more than foreign, as the train, if the use of the locomotive provided by foreign companies, regardless of the technology to change the body, can not surpass the foreign train.

Revolutionary scientific and technological achievements are to change the perspective of observation, from a new path to describe the inherent logic of the process of things.

But revolutionary scientific and technological theories and methods are not meant to change the existence of the physical world. But to change the way people know things. For example, the ancient cars and modern cars, the use of the purpose is exactly the same, the exterior has a cargo space, the change is composed of parts. If the shape changes, it's not a car. such as the use of quantum decomposition technology (assumed) transmission of goods.

At present, people have the same misunderstanding of cloud computing products, in fact, from the surface, cloud products and traditional products are the same, because the purpose of any product is to solve the needs of people's applications. For example Cloud website also must be a website.

3, explore the opportunity of the emergence of scientific and technological revolution

East-West science and technology, like two trains, alternately lead the development of human civilization. Although people do not find the reason for it at present, they have to agree with the fact of existence. Maybe it's one of the laws of nature.

The laws of nature are not accidental and will not change because of people's subjective desires. This means that the scientific and technological revolution can only occur in a specific time and space, and the social status quo itself is not very related. Modern science takes place in a special time and space, and according to People's normal logical thinking, it is impossible to become the birthplace of modern science. Ancient science and technology also appeared in certain time and space, such as Ancient Greece, ancient China. And mankind's first spread down the scientific and technological achievements seem to be congenital gossip, its era became a myth and legend.

Although everyone believes that their ability can change the nature of the law, it seems that this wish has never been achieved. Many scientists who are rich in resources have the power to bring about revolutionary theories or revolutionary methods, and some people inadvertently put forward revolutionary scientific theories or methods, such as Newton, Einstein, Hawking, etc.

Although it is not possible to predict the people who put forward revolutionary scientific theories and methods, and the specific space-time, but the more and more serious survival crisis that mankind is facing now is a harbinger of the new technological revolution coming. As a possibility, it may be difficult to make a breakthrough for these people.

(1) Scientists who excessively pursue and enjoy the fame and fortune brought by "authority". This kind of person lacks the science and technology tolerant mentality, likes to deny the "creative" viewpoint that the non "authority" person puts forward arbitrarily with own knowledge.

(2) People who talk about theoretical ideas without hands-on practice. Modern science has accumulated a lot of theories and methods, the theory and method brought by the new scientific and technological revolution must be beyond the ability of the human brain to deal with, and only by means of tools can we expand the logical combination ability of the human brain and obtain truly effective revolutionary theories and methods.

(3) Blindly worship the existing scientific knowledge, lack of questioning and destruction of the spirit of reconstruction of the people. Modern science itself is flawed, and the aim of scientific and technological revolution is to find more reasonable scientific theories and technical methods.

4. How the government creates the external cause of the technological revolution

The coming scientific and technological revolution has brought great opportunities to China, and the government will play a crucial role in its ability to become the leader of new science, to restore the glories of ancient science and technology and to guide the future development of mankind.

(1) To break the situation of authoritative control of resources, let the market determine the use of resources is very important. Any revolutionary theory of science and technology or the emergence of products, the purpose is to solve the needs of people's application, and demand belongs to the market behavior. When authority easily occupies the market resources, the society loses the impetus which promotes the revolutionary technology product to appear.

(2) to allow the disruptive effects of revolutionary technology products on the current commercial (social) Form in policy. Every time the emergence of the scientific and technological revolution, the existing social system will be a shock, this is unavoidable law.

(3) The emergence of a large number of revolutionary technologies and products will inevitably cause confusion in the understanding of people, resulting in behavioral chaos. Therefore, an effective regulatory environment will be the basic guarantee to maintain the vitality of social innovation.
