Cloud Life A little dizzy: the name is very sexy technology is not new

A few years ago, I knew that the internet had a "cloud concept" that sounded dangling. At that time, it felt like a cloud in the sky, it looks very beautiful, but it seems too far from the ordinary people, how can not reach.

But I do not know when to start, around the cloud products more and more, cloud music, Cloud TV, Cloud newspapers, Cloud notes, Cloud mobile phone, cloud payment, cloud disk ... Everything is stained with clouds. Between the Yunshan, can not help but make people some dizzy. When does cloud technology and our daily life connect so closely? What conveniences do these myriad cloud products bring to people's lives?

The name is sexy, technology is not new

Cloud computing was first proposed by Google, which began its rounds in 2007. This technology refers to the use of large-scale data centers or supercomputer clusters, and through the Internet to use computing resources for free or on-demand leasing methods to users, the "cloud" can be understood as an Internet connection of large-scale computing system.

In fact, the concept of cloud computing before being put forward by Google, the technology itself has undergone more than 10 years of evolution, the United States well-known IT companies Oracle, Sun and other attempts to promote marketing, but did not succeed. The success of Google is that using one of the most poetic metaphors in a more difficult technique-users don't have to know how they get computing services, these computing services seem to be concentrated in the clouds above, and we can get services as easily as we look up at clouds.

For example, cloud computing is like switching from an old single generator to a centralized power supply model. It means that computing power can also be used as a commodity circulation, like gas, water and electricity, easy to use, low-cost. The biggest difference is that it is transmitted over the Internet.

Clouds are also connected to the atmosphere, the application of more pro people

In the past two years, China's cloud computing application market has obviously accelerated. Chinese Business Intelligence Network Research data show that 2012 China's cloud computing market size of more than 60 billion yuan, an increase of 92.3%, 2013 China's cloud computing market size will be more than 110 billion yuan. Specifically, in addition to the large-scale cloud computing center construction is accelerating, there are many related to cloud computing applications and products launched, so that the original use of a large number of commercial enterprises, slightly mysterious cloud technology began to be more and more people contact.

The recent hot-fried cloud TV, in fact, is the use of cloud computing and cloud storage technology, so that ordinary TV can achieve mass storage, remote control and many other functions. Enterprises through the "cloud" to control the background data and software platform, including the basic operating platform and application operating system, color TV users do not need to make any upgrades for their own television, maintenance, resources download, just connect the TV network, you can instantly realize the latest applications and the sharing of huge resources.

So, as long as we understand the core nature of cloud technology, it is not difficult to understand these sudden emergence of cloud applications and cloud products in our lives. Similarly, Cloud mobile phone is the cloud computing technology for network Terminal Services, through the cloud server to achieve cloud services mobile phones. Every application, every function is a cloud. Mainly including cloud assistant, Cloud notes, Cloud pictures, cloud chat, cloud search, cloud mail, Cloud Browser, and several major features, all cloud functions are based on a cloud account, this account represents the individual in the cloud Server identity card.

Other applications, such as Cloud notes, cloud music, and cloud newspapers, are based on cloud computing technology, making it easier for people to enjoy and share resources and data anytime, anywhere, in the Internet environment. A growing number of cloud products and applications that can be used for daily work and entertainment also make the cloud technology of the past seem more grounded.

Safety is hidden, environment is ripe

Undoubtedly, as more and more Internet-related enterprises in their own products to add cloud concept, the entire 2013, cloud services will still be one of the most popular topics, Tencent, Baidu, Alibaba and other industries leading enterprises to join, but also make this market into a comprehensive war state. However, since the day the cloud technology was born, concerns about Yu Yun security have been raised.

Since cloud services need to submit data to the data center for enterprise or individual users, in the process, almost every enterprise or individual will consider its own data loss or outbound, in addition to worrying about data loss. Once lost or exposed, the damage may be fatal. None of these accidents have happened in the industry, and in China, such as Aliyun, leading companies have had accidents that were inaccessible due to power outages. For individual users, the more products or applications that use cloud technology, the more your personal data or storage is put into the cloud, and the convenience is at the same time that the risk can only be personal.

In addition, based on cloud computing technology has not reached maturity, and most of the data to provide cloud services is not perfect background, enterprises or individuals can really enjoy the benefits of cloud computing is very limited. In fact, many products and cloud computing are not at all, or very little, but these technology companies will put a cloud on the new product label. At present, some local governments or enterprises, are in the "daze leisurely" case of spending huge sums of money to buy a lot of equipment to build the so-called "cloud system", but the actual application is very few pitiful.

And for individual users, there are many people are the cloud that cloud of publicity stunt to get dizzy, become "parrot". In fact, such as Cloud TV, cloud mobile phones such products, in the current background data support and social environment, it is difficult to make people enjoy their due convenience effect.

Despite some haste, it is undeniable that cloud computing is a new trend, a new change, the essence of the information industry, the promotion of social productivity. With the advent of the data age and the maturity and promotion of cloud computing, the cloud will eventually change our lives more and more.
