Cloud-Creating storage: Sprint to the "Chaoyang" industry

As the industry's "Chaoyang" industry, the development of cloud computing has been from the previous "generalities" stage, gradually developed to "pay attention to the actual application needs" stage. In the process, the emergence of a large number of services to provide cloud and application-oriented manufacturers, cloud-creating storage is one of the most noticed.


marching into the "Chaoyang" industry


Nanjing Yun-Chong Storage was founded in March 2011, in the field of science and technology also belongs to an emerging enterprise. But this "new enterprise" has achieved a number of independent innovation technology and has a number of project success stories. For example, its cloud to create independent research and development of Cstor cloud storage System, cproc cloud processing platform and Cvideo HD Cloud video Surveillance system, has been applied to Lanzhou data center construction project, Zhenjiang "Cloud God" project, Nanjing Government Affairs data Center and many other projects.


Cloud to create storage market director Xu Laimin that the reason why the cloud can achieve such good results, first of all because of the election to the "road", cloud computing is now the most promising "sunrise industry." "We value the development potential of cloud computing, is the sunrise industry, in the future we want to become China's cloud computing in the field of a business card." ”


second, is the cloud Chong grasp the opportunity, close to the actual needs of users. "From the beginning of last year we had a clear sense of the concept of cloud computing to the landing link, before we talked about more mainly data center, but as the project landed, we began to gradually realize the importance of application in the actual demand." Now in the landing application concerns more and more, the product is more and more close to the user's actual needs. "Xu Laimin said.


when it comes to close user development needs, Xu Laimin says this is an opportunity and a challenge for cloud creation. "Cloud creation itself is to do is the storage module, for different application systems to custom development, which often brings us a lot of needs to overcome problems." Now we are developing some iconic interfaces to achieve partial standardization as much as possible in customization. While meeting the actual needs of users, minimize the time required for deployment. ”


cooperation, follow trend


at this year's cloud computing conference, cloud-hit storage announced the introduction of the first ultra-low power, high-density A8000 cloud storage machine. This cloud storage product is based on the Intel (r) processor and is jointly developed by Cloud storage, Intel and the 32nd Institute of China Electronics Technology Group. According to the introduction, compared with the traditional cloud storage products, A8000 can carry total storage capacity up to 1824TB, single storage node peak power consumption is less than 0.15KW, than the traditional cloud storage products 3 times times more energy-saving, 10 times times better performance. Known as "The world's first cloud storage machine."


The partnership with Intel is not the first time, and last year, the two sides have cooperated to launch a large data integration machine. Speaking of cooperation with Intel, Xu Laimin said that prior to partnering with the cloud, Intel found that the future model of selling servers through a single platform would be no longer mainstream and would be replaced by a FCL model. "Intel wants to find a potential company in Greater China to promote the Chinese market, so it chooses cloud-storage and hit both sides." ”


according to Xu Laimin introduced, A8000 products will be in this year Fri market-oriented to do a comprehensive promotion. At present, from the public security, traffic police, such as the huge demand for a large amount of video industry's favor.


Intel chooses and cloud creates, valuing the innovative technologies of cloud creation. Xu Laimin Introduction, for example, in the distributed database, many vendors are in the open source platform to do optimization, but in practical applications, this pattern will appear many bottlenecks. "At the beginning we also use the open source platform to do optimization, but later found that if the optimization is not as good as push to restart, a new system, so we developed a data cube this system." and adhere to their own independent innovation road. ”


will develop complete channel strategy to establish channel system


for a company that has just been established for three years, channel layout is the focus of its development in the next year or two.


in this regard, Xu Laimin said that in the future we will also be regional gold and silver way to develop a wide range of channel partners to join.


Xu Laimin Introduction: "At present our development area mainly concentrates in east China, South China and Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei these informationization development level is relatively fast area." This year, we are still in the market research stage, or to direct promotion mainly, at present our sales mainly in two aspects of development: first, and the local strength of the integrator to push the project. Second, direct to promote the project, set up a typical industry case, two legs parallel. Next year we plan to extend to the region and will develop detailed channel opportunities. ”


on the future channel development planning, Xu Laimin said: "Channel is willing to do this product is a number of reasons, first, this product is the" Chaoyang industry ", second, there is profit space, third, manufacturers after-sales service to follow, product quality clearance. In meeting these three aspects of the same time, we will try to meet the channel partner's other needs, such as technical training, prototype testing and so we should do for the channel partners. Xu Laimin finally added.
