Cloud Television is just a cloud TV business can hold live

Following the introduction of their own intelligent http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/21311.html "> TV products, after half a year, the domestic color TV enterprises in the field of intelligent television, the second wave of waves hit. In the last two weeks, Hisense, Skyworth, Konka, Changhong, TCL and other color TV manufacturers collectively launched a new smart TV, this time, "cloud" has become a common key words.

Although different manufacturers for their own cloud TV and cloud based intelligent strategy have their own different statements, but summed up, in fact, roughly the same, with the previous smart TV products in the background through with some content vendors to provide a huge amount of film, game resources are different, Now the cloud TV products more emphasis on the manufacturer's cloud platform and content services competition, in addition to buying hardware, but also to provide consumers with a huge cloud services, in case the consumer needs to call from the cloud resource requirements.

In order to illustrate this matter, Skyworth Group Vice President Yang Dongwen and TCL Multimedia CEO Zhao each play a metaphor, are impressive. Yang Dongwen describes the difference between traditional TV and cloud TV is like family wells and running water, family wells belong to a family unit used, it is difficult to share large area, while the water supply by the waterworks, multi-party sharing, Zhao described as smart TV as the former family standing gas tank, and into the cloud TV era, Just as we use the pipeline gas, at any time, on demand.

The concept is good, the key is to see how the role of consumers buy home on the television. A few press conferences down, note that, in addition to the cloud platform, three-screen interaction, social function has become the home in the introduction of cloud TV features invariably focus on the content: Hisense's personal smart TV can share TV programs, Skyworth Cloud TV launched the concept of family social networking, Konka in the conference site with TV hair Weibo, TCL Cloud TV deep embedded Tencent QQ software, users can directly on TV with QQ video, farm and other series of applications.

This, I have a little confused, the manufacturers so focused, social functions can represent the cloud computing application of television? In fact, these applications are already in mobile phones, PAD, PC and other personal mobile terminals are quite mature and popular applications, replication is suitable? Can you achieve the same success?

Cloud, what is it? What is a cloud TV?

See the Internet and people put forward different views, that the current cloud television is not really a real cloud computing in the field of television application. The idea is that cloud computing is an application model for computing-capable devices connected to the cloud to provide computational behavior to other users at the same time. Sounds very clumsy, I think, into the vernacular should be said that the cloud storage is not the content of the centralized storage, but all access terminals are responsible for online computing tasks. According to this view, the current cloud television products do not have this ability.

That sounds a little too complicated, for those who are waiting to buy TV, the hope is just that, spent a higher price of ordinary TV Smart Cloud TV will not soon become a "cloud", which is the color TV manufacturers system, software, content, application of "soft power" put forward higher requirements.

A recent message may give color TV makers a "move". It has been reported that Apple has been concentrating on buying 55-inch LCD panels, which means the legendary Apple's foray into smart-TV will come true, and the smart set-top box has been skipped to get the machine straight. With the smart phone in the field of successful hegemony of the design concept and business model, Apple may be in the television field again staged subversive play code, then the color TV manufacturers can "hold live", do not know.
