Cloud computing--"Clouds of doubt" and "clouds"

In 2011, the U.S. government issued the federal Cloud Computing strategy white Paper, the world's first dedicated to the introduction of cloud computing strategy countries. The United States is trying to promote cloud computing through government demonstrations and occupy the strategic highlands of the industry, while countries such as Britain and Japan are actively pursuing them. In this respect, many experts and insiders in the "Economic reference newspaper" reporter interviewed said that the development of cloud computing on our country has important practical significance and strategic significance, China should not miss this important industry opportunities, should be promulgated as soon as possible relevant policies to promote industrial development in order to seize the cloud computing strategic Heights. Reporter in the interview found that cloud computing in China has started and made a lot of progress, so that the people see the horizon of a "cloud." But along with this, "cloud" and "Clouds" are gathering: on the one hand, most people have "no concept" of what is cloud computing, on the one hand, some places in the cloud computing "big game concept", the cloud as hype profit "futures", Enclosure, on the project, marketing and cloud computing irrelevant hardware software. To this expert pointed out, want to seize the cloud computing development opportunity, local government and enterprise to do more groundwork work, Gao can't hunger, hard to harvest.

Europe and the United States have laid out cloud computing industry

The term "cloud computing" was first proposed by Google in 2006, which uses a unified and flexible network of resources to achieve low-cost, efficient, large-scale processing of massive information and provide IC T (information, communications, technology) services. Cloud computing has two salient features: one is that IC t capacity is no longer encapsulated in specific products, but in the form of services, subversive innovation in the way of business delivery, the second is to form the scale of the economic effect of the digital industry, thus reducing costs, improve efficiency, energy saving and consumption reduction.

America's first shot

After the concept of cloud computing emerged, the United States quickly found its leading position in the field of information technology, attaches great importance to and actively guide the development of cloud computing. The US white Paper on federal cloud computing proposes to improve and improve government services by shifting the Government's current IT applications to cloud computing, with $20 billion in the US government's $80 billion it budget for 2012. At the same time, the U.S. government has developed a "cloud first" approach to ensure its technology and industry leadership. Federal chief information Officer Kundera said the U.S. government departments will be within 18 months of the department's application of cloud computing deployment, the federal government will be in three years to build a number of large cloud computing centers, to provide cloud services to government departments at all levels, which can save the United States government's budget.

In fact, cloud computing has been put on the US government's it agenda since March 2009, when US President Barack Obama appointed Kundera as the federal CIO. The United States Government has taken a series of measures to this end: first, from the national level to do public opinion propaganda and guidance, to launch the site apps.gov display and recommend to obtain government-approved products and applications; second, according to government procurement needs, organize major manufacturers to develop a series of standards, conduct certification testing, standardize government procurement Development, third, to promote the development of new technologies, the organization of federal demonstration projects, funding pilot projects and related research projects.

At the same time, the US cloud computing industry has embarked on a fast-growing track. Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, E MC, Intel, A T & T and other giants become cloud computing industry's leading enterprises. The restructuring and integration of cloud computing industry has accelerated, and the traditional enterprises have been transformed and emerging enterprises are growing.
