China to build a cloud computing center power consumption of huge energy will be a big problem

Whether 2010 or 2011, Cloud computing has been rated as the top ten strategic technology. Future Service outsourcing content, 90% will be cloud computing crowding out. At the end of the fourth session of the Service Outsourcing cooperation Conference, "cloud computing" has been repeatedly discussed by the participants. "The so-called cloud computing is a number of computers per second at more than 1000 trillion times the concentration of a computer to form a cloud terminal computing center, according to IBM estimates that all the world's real-time data, as long as the 20 centers built, you can put this data processing." "Four Tong Group chairman Yongji introduced.

Yongji, who claims to be the IT industry's unearthed relics, also predicts from its years of experience that "based on the wisdom of the Earth era of service outsourcing, China has great opportunities for every building, rail, highway, restaurant, there must be a lot of demand." In addition to a large number of storage and processing data has our opportunity, now the Cloud Center Server outsourcing, the end of last year, the number is 2 million units, the next few years of service outsourcing someone estimated that it is geometric data growth, this is our opportunity. ”

The company's chief scientist, Zichi, also said that with the advent of cloud computing, infrastructure is a service, software is a service, and I think that the future outsourcing service industry, depends on our outsourcing services provider, can meet the needs of customers at any time.

Cai Chunsong, president of IBM China Research and Development Center, cited an example there is a domestic clothing manufacturer, every year will use 2-3 days to do a promotion, when it wants to promote, it needs a lot of it input, he will this to the Cloud computing Center, this is our software-level services, to help the company do a three-day promotion, The company only needs to receive orders and shipments at home, after three days of the end of the contract, the service is over. The service was very successful, and in 3 days he was surprised to get so many orders. This is done by way of cloud computing.

"What I've just mentioned is about cloud computing, which has contributed to the transformation of the entire outsourcing service, so because it changes in this interactive paradigm, this creates a lot of opportunities for this outsourcing service." ”

Not just in the field of service outsourcing, the advent of cloud computing will bring about great changes in our lives. It is understood that "cloud" will help you to synchronize the required Office documents, so that you don't have to go to the office every day; "Cloud" allows you to receive e-mail directly from multiple mailboxes at any time, and "cloud" allows you to have a map of the world, and even access to real-time information on the map, such as traffic conditions, Weather conditions and so on. This is just a simple piece of cloud computing applications, but it brings a lot of convenience to life.

IDC, an international market research firm, forecasts that the global cloud computing services market is now 17.2 billion dollars and will grow to $44.2 billion in 2013, averaging 26% per cent a year in the future. In the future, this will be a very attractive market.

In a few short years, cloud computing has moved from concept to application. Because of this, the world has not yet formed a technology monopoly, China's cloud computing technology and the world's advanced level gap is not very large, this is a rare opportunity for China.

"But the Chinese city" cloud computing heat "can not pursue scale, but should avoid low-level repeat construction and blind planning. "China Cloud computing Experts committee member Peng in the cloud computing and International Service Outsourcing Cooperation Forum," suggested.

Peng to reporters, "alone in terms of energy, we have done a statistic, a cloud computing server consumes about 5000 yuan a year of electricity, if the construction of a 1 million-machine cloud computing Center, only electricity costs will be 5 billion yuan, this is a big problem in China's energy-intensive. ”

In response to the "cloud computing craze", Peng said, "I hope the Government will guide all parts of the pursuit of cloud computing center scale, but also to consider cost-effective, energy-saving emission reduction and application effects of the problem." The scale of the cloud can be dynamically extended, and the best approach is to expand as the scale of the application expands to avoid idle and idling. ”
