Chinese domestic Internet companies kicked off the campaign

Since May, Microsoft Ballmer announced in Shanghai high-profile Azure cloud services officially launched, China's public cloud market has been sustained high temperature does not drop. However, compared with the integrated service providers (such as Huawei, Microsoft and IBM, etc.) and traditional commercial data center service providers (such as telecom operators, Century Internet and Wannet, etc.) Baotuan cooperation, the author of the most expectations is that local Internet business troop deployment.

Why do you say that? First, the main users of cloud computing platforms led by IT chiefs are still traditional enterprises. The demand for cloud computing in these enterprises is still not yet urgent. Second, the overseas success of Amazon Web Services (AWS) has been left behind by the Internet companies Huge imaginary space, people look forward to a new generation of Chinese Internet Nova was born, coercion of China's long-term innovation of the SME groups. Chasing the "big brother dream" occupy the global cloud computing service overlord position of the Amazon Web Services (AWS), the development process also ten years. In 2001 AWS, Amazon's e-commerce began to provide Web site technical support and operations for offline retailers; the following year, AWS paid service model began to enable; around 2006, Amazon's cloud computing services, and gradually focus on the platform layer and services Layer to form a series of services such as Amazon EC2, Amazon S3, Amazon SimpleDB, Amazon Simple Queue Service. One of the most well-known cloud EC2 elastic computing. Following the Amazon Web service model, domestic Internet companies Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent have long been in the field of cloud computing. Among them, Ali cloud growth path and Amazon closer. Alibaba also developed from e-commerce. The original intention of Aliyun (flying open platform) was established on the one hand to serve internal businesses such as Alibaba, Taobao and Tmall; on the other hand, public cloud services were provided externally. Subsequently, Aliyun through the acquisition of Wan Wang, operating license plate to solve the problem, but also quickly accumulated customer and data center operations experience. Ali cloud is currently mainly to provide IaaS and PaaS two levels of service. Among them, IaaS services include ECS / SLB, OSS, OTS, RDB and ODPS; PaaS services are Cloud Services Engine (ACE). Alibaba prefers to emphasize that what it provides is "the first platform for data sharing," and uses the technology of "cloud plus data," such as the CST Tower and Taobao's Open platform. Tens of thousands of websites, games and applications are now aggregated on the Alibaba Cloud platform, providing daily access to hundreds of millions of users directly or indirectly. It is worth noting that Aliyun has long been trying to cooperate with all levels of China Telecom to provide an open business for smart cities and provide customers with telecom services capabilities of data aggregation, real-time control, intelligent analysis and flexible collaboration. Broke into the "confused boy" In early June, the electricity supplier field "confounded boy" Jingdong, announced the layout of cloud services. In this regard to break Alibaba, Baidu and Tencent, the top three giants of the pattern. And as Jingdong cloud computing and open platform task of vice president of technology, previously served as Amazon's AWS S3 technology leader. Jingdong breathlessly launched the four cloud computing services including Jingdong Yun Ding, Jingdong cloud engine, Jingdong Yunhui and Jingdong Yunfeng four solutions, fully facing the Jingdong sellers, logistics partners, e-commerce service providers and individual developers to provide Jingdong System open interface, service trading market e-commerce application cloud hosting platform, application development cloud platform, community ecology and other e-commerce cloud services, opening up a complete e-commerce cloud service chain. Have to say, Jingdong cloud service open platform is still in its infancy, but also has not formed a service ecosystem; especially in the construction of big data, but not enough with Ali, Tencent, Baidu and other Internet giants compared. But there is no doubt that Jingdong in the strategic direction of the cloud platform is the right choice. And whether the future can quickly top, but also depends on whether he can "mix generous" style to play out, by virtue of the power of cloud (jcloud.com) the success of the transformation of cloud services. Pattern changes between the two camps China's public cloud has great room for growth in the future. It is indeed a fast-growing one that has won the imagination. In particular, cloud computing has been included in the "12th Five-Year Plan." According to the latest research released by IDC in May this year, the size of China's public cloud market will reach 24.67 billion yuan in 2016, with a CAGR of 38.6%. Among the types of cloud services most needed by enterprises, PaaS, the platform as a service, accounted for the highest demand, reaching 43%; followed by Infrastructure as a Service, IaaS, accounting for 36% of the total. Such a large market cake, promoting the major manufacturers of real services landing, as well as the strategic layout of actions, such as Microsoft hand in Century, IBM capital to the capital online and so on. From the product program point of view, Microsoft released the Windows Azure platform, through a multi-level business framework to achieve a full range of cloud service coverage; and IBM seems to focus on large enterprise IT solutions layer more. The cloud services provided by Internet enterprises are more inclined to the storage and architecture services of small and medium-sized innovative enterprises to expand and extend the existing network businesses and ecological chains. For example, Ali cloud "poly stone tower" service is mainly for the electricity supplier ecosystem, Baidu cloud and Sina App Engine most of the clients are small business team and even individual developers, Tencent related services directly against their own open platform Some game developers and so on. From the targeted customer base, the two camps of traditional IT enterprises and Internet companies are not obvious in the collision and intersection of the public cloud market in China at present. From a certain perspective, the Internet business camp is still a supporting role, its cloud service reliability, stability is also slightly less. However, the strategy and implementation of cloud for Internet enterprises is attracting more and more attention as it relates to business innovation and transformational development of the largest number of SMEs in China. In time, let us look forward to the change in the pattern between the two camps.
