Cloud computing: Domestic busy to launch the United States busy shutdown

Yangcheng Evening News reporter Linxi Report: Recently Sadie Advisory released the "Cloud Computing Strategy Research Series" forecast, the domestic cloud computing market size from 2010 to 16.731 billion yuan to 2013 billion, the annual compound growth rate of 91.5%. The Chinese Internet Association predicts that China's cloud computing market will exceed 60 billion trillion yuan in 2012.

In addition, China Internet Association, a number of authoritative agencies reported that the "Twelve-Five" (2011-2015) period, China's cloud computing industry chain can reach billion to 1 trillion yuan.

Cloud computing is being oversold

Such an attractive development prospects, attracted many companies to kill into the market, many local governments also favor the cloud computing, a variety of "cloud computing Center" has been blooming everywhere. Chongqing's "Jiang River International Cloud Computing Center", Beijing's "Xiangyun plan", Shanghai's "cloud Plan", Guangzhou, "Tian Yun Plan", Hainan's "All-ecological" cloud computing industry base and so on.

But last week in Shenzhen, Microsoft's global Senior vice president, Microsoft Asia-Pacific Group Research and Development Vice President Zhang to the bustling cloud computing poured a pot of cold water. He thinks that new things such as cloud technology and Internet of things are too stressed in recent years, just like hype.

At the end of last year, Jichuan, the former minister of Information Industry, criticized the development of cloud computing, which was burning hotter.

He pointed out that in many places, even the concept of cloud computing, the role is not clear, hurried to circle Cloud base, to engage in large-scale server hosting, it is not called cloud, that is called waste, that is called burning money.

US Cuts cloud computing Center

China currently has 588,000 data centers and nearly 6,800 new data centers in 2011, including the cloud computing data centers that are being planned, according to the Institute of Industrial Research. Some observers believe that the data centers built together are like commercial real estate projects.

Zhang said: "In every city is talking about cloud computing, are spending a lot of resources to build data centers."

I think the whole is probably a good thing and the right trend. But cloud computing is likely to overheat, with a little more hype. ”

But the US market, which is the most developed in the IT industry, is cutting the number of data centers, which may also be a wake-up call to the domestic cloud-computing boom. The U.S. government has shut down 137 data centers in the past year, and the FBI plans to consolidate the measure, with a total of 1100 data centers to be closed in the future.
