Cloud World Congress: Domestic cloud Technology elite dialogue cloud computing

Beijing time December 12, "Cloud World 2011" Congress opened in Beijing, the conference will revolve around the global cloud computing trends and practices, China's cloud computing development and future, China's cloud computing road exploration and results, cloud computing industry policy and the capital market focus on cloud computing focus on the core issues.

After the Silicon Valley elite dialogue cloud computing, Cloud World Congress into the next link, the domestic cloud technology elite dialogue cloud computing.

Tian Yun Technology Vice President Reitao: Today is really all star flashing, see the valley of the elite gathered here, so we want to pull back to China, pull back to Beijing's also Zhuang, to see what happened in the local enterprises. We invite four guests to chemistry today. First, Si Jie system company Cloud Platform Product Department CTO Liang, Mr. Liang in SI Jie company responsible for cloud product strategic planning and the overall technology implementation, once was the founder of Cloud.com, this year to think Jay. The second is Chen Shangyi, director of the company's technical committee, adjunct professor at Beihang University, postgraduate tutor of the Academy of Sciences, and a major project of the National College of Singapore and many nuclear shishou. The third is Ali Cloud computing platform, senior expert Lin early morning, Mr. Lin began to enter the Aliyun group in 2008, has been engaged in large-scale cloud distributed computing and most of the architecture work.

Finally, Beijing friends Tianyu System Technology Co., Ltd. Yao Hongyu CEO. Today are all cloud elites here, all need bright swords, to give some challenging questions to the elite, hope that local innovative content, can surpass the Silicon Valley enterprises, because it industry, heard a lot of content is speaking, success can be replicated, this sentence seems to talk a lot in China. Every successful Silicon Valley business philosophy, technological innovation, can be found in the domestic samples. More than 10 years of domestic IT industry, the Internet industry, the continuous introduction of content innovation. The elite here, not replicas, are independent and innovative print. These questions, want one one to ask us all of you here.

The theme of today's topic, I was thinking, talk about innovation, where is the secret of innovation? Ask our Mr. Liang first, there is a story behind you. Cloud.com, a team of 40 people in two years, sold 200 million dollars, so quickly in the cloud computing field. Innovation is a certainty. When we look at the Gartner maturity curve, cloud computing has not yet come to Peak Valley, still in the gestation period, 2009, Gartner or in the hot holding period, how did you do it?

Si Jie system Company Cloud Platform Product Department CTO Liang: Today is very happy to discuss cloud computing and cloud computing in China. As Mr. Ray said, I created a company called Cloud.com three years ago, our company was 6 months ago by the company bought. I now think of Jerry as chief technology officer, responsible for cloud computing technology.

In fact, speaking of innovation, the most important thing for small companies is to have a chance and opportunity, and then have such a concept to grasp, there is such confidence to grasp such opportunities. Cloud computing is now very red, but two or three years ago, Amazon's Ec2,s service was very successful. It was not just Amazon's success, but many of the industry's giants began, and Chang and Zhang were openly talking about the opportunities for cloud computing.

Therefore, I think, the most crucial to innovation, to seize the opportunity, is to start to do, do not care about these big companies are also talking about the same thing. Because from the enterprise's point of view, there are many existing products, there are existing strategies, it is difficult to quickly turn around, to do a new, now cloud base dozens of enterprises to redo, from the strategy, implementation, customer perspective can be done again. It, the traditional cloud server to the cloud, the traditional PC to cloud computing, such a great turnaround time, to the small companies like us, as well as many of the cloud-cloud.com companies here to create a lot of opportunities.

After our company is done, the most important thing to say is not technology, the key is to develop some technology to help users really solve some problems, because these problems already exist, but the company can not quickly do technology and products, strategic transformation, and really help users solve problems.

Therefore, our company cloud.com at that time in such circumstances, quickly solve these problems. At that time from Korea Telecom, India's Tata Telecom, and so on, all of a sudden there are dozens of cloud, are built with cloud.com software, we will soon be able to get these customers, and can use our software, really let customers benefit.

The next step is that big companies like some big companies, such as Jie, are also forward-looking and advocate the need for innovation. Big companies may not start, but after a year or two, to three, and realize that there is a need to invest in cloud computing and find opportunities in technology, they will acquire, in their view, the best, or the most customer, the best, the best of the small companies. This time, is in this kind of prospect, our company is bought by Si Jie company, I was very happy at that time.

Because Citrix is a fairly large company, but in this scale of companies, few companies like the company's forward-looking and ability to really want to solve the problem of cloud computing for customers, when Si Jie after we acquired, our business really pushed to the next step, so that our technology and products more successful, Let our customers more effective.

Tian Yun Technology Vice President Reitao: We need a quick choice, from an early age. We have not answered a question head-on, how exactly do we choose? Because of this technical question, ask again next round.

Below also want to talk about Baidu, I contacted Baidu for the first time should be ten years ago, that time, innovation, he handed me a card, is a very small green card, and all other brand card is not the same. We see the Silicon Valley has Google search company, Google developed so many years down, they are also rigorous, they also acquired some video applications, to get new cash flow. I would like to ask Baidu's Mr. Chen, Baidu decade of Development, the driving force for continuous innovation and the root of where? and talk about the future of cloud computing related areas of thinking.

Chen Shangyi: Yesterday evening 10:30 when there is a Weibo netizen to sleep, very uneasy, that is, Baidu a bit, he asked a question, the world has more than I handsome people? The result of Baidu's answer is sorry did not find, this netizen said, can rest assured sleep. It was a joke. But from this joke, we can feel, we can easily smile, Baidu people feel great pressure. Not only this problem, a lot of problems when you do not know the answer, will be submitted to Baidu, so just asked the host, Baidu's innovative power where? In the beginning, the search engine is very simple, that is, through keyword matching, find a bunch of links, and then sorted by algorithm, so that you choose from, the first row, Must be said to be more in line with your requirements, should be speaking.

Later even in Baidu internal, caused a little controversy, but the debate quickly passed, that is, users do not choose keywords, it is difficult to find the answer, so we need to educate users, teach them to use keywords, and soon have been defeated. Search engine gets more and more dependent, many problems will be submitted to it, such as 1+1 equals a few, such as a certain word and Chinese how to read, for example, three car together is what word, or why men than women, or to say, the consequences of cerebral hemorrhage surgery is how? Many problems. Therefore, Baidu in the ongoing challenges of these issues in the process, forcing its various technologies to continuously innovate and develop. Including the development of cloud computing we're talking about today.

Why do you say that? First of all, we see, in the face of more and more users of the problem, intelligent, fool, the search engine as a natural person, this case, August 18, 2008, in the Baidu World Congress, Baidu founder Robin Li proposed the concept of box calculation, which is a landmark, I've been trying since. What is the box calculation? Box calculation is opposite to cloud computing, even some experts think it is contradictory, or put forward to a nondescript. But in fact, it is a very advanced technology concept.

The problem it solves is how to continuously meet the growing needs of users. Through our internal survey found that users are not only interested in data, links, now found that 30% is interested in application for the king of the era, he wants to search applications. So the idea of the box calculation proposed in 2008 is backed by four important technical support.

The first technique is semantic analysis, a description of natural language, and a small box.

Second, behavior analysis, when the weather forecast, in Beijing is to show the weather forecast in Beijing, Shanghai or Hong Kong, is to show the weather forecast in Shanghai or Hong Kong, according to the location of people, behavior habits, given the answer is not the same, is personalized calculation.

Third, the massive data, is today everybody discusses the big data, not only is massive, the relational data structure and the dynamics. These four technologies support our growing customer needs and needs. Baidu inside has a slogan, box calculation, box is the purpose, the cloud is the means. Just now, to meet the needs of users, we have to do a lot of things, four technology. But in the background to face more and more users of data and needs, unimaginable, now mobile terminals, intelligent terminals more and more popular, bandwidth is wider, upload a data is very convenient, the number of backstage is the growth of geometry, we now do is for 500 PB, or 1000 PB to prepare, There are also large-scale machine clusters.
