Cloud computing slowly landed, the consumer electronics sector stroll "cloud" side. It is reported that a few days ago, Chengdu formally introduced cloud computing applications and industrial development Twelve-Five Planning outline, comprehensive layout of cloud computing. The consumer electronics sector is also the wind of "cloud" surge. At the 2011 China International Consumer Electronics Fair, consumer electronics companies, including home appliance companies, have focused on cloud computing and pushed the product forward, according to China Consumer News. At the same time, the vast potential of cloud computing has attracted many it giants to invest in it. According to media reports, Acer's 320 million-dollar takeover of Igware to develop cloud computing; Asus said it was looking for partners to enter the cloud computing market; The exposed Aliyun phones have brought the once-illusory "clouds" to consumers.
Cloud computing is leading the new consumer trend: to become a breakthrough in the medical industry informatization, to bring breakthroughs in e-commerce, rooted in mobile phone service people's lives. There is no doubt that cloud computing has created a new experience for consumers, but there are also problems in the development process. The "cloud" that stores the data is becoming a new target for hackers as more and more valuable user data are transferred to the cloud, according to Internet security reports released in the first half of the 2011. Therefore, consumers in the taste of taste at the same time, must not ignore the accompanying "cloud" and security issues.
Cloud computing from abstraction to reality
Cloud computing is seen as a revolutionary breakthrough in the information industry. Super computing power, high availability, on-demand dynamic resource allocation characteristics, as well as the green environmental technology value, many shiny features to make it a high level of numerous enterprises in the heart of the darling. Now, the mysterious cloud is landing, from abstraction into reality.
The cloud market is like a gold mine to be dug. The global cloud computing market will reach $160 billion trillion by 2011, and 12% of the global software market will shift to cloud computing, according to the agency. In the future, the annual composite growth rate of China's cloud computing market is expected to exceed 80%.
Because of this, big companies have increased their investment in cloud computing. According to media reports, Acer announced July 21 that it would buy U.S. igware companies with $320 million trillion plus $75 million in operating performance awards. Wang, Acer's chairman, said the company would use Igware to develop an independent cloud computing system, Acer Cloud, enabling consumers to integrate all Acer products, including PCs, tablets and smartphones, into the cloud system, and share behind the content services. Coincidentally, Asus also said that they have been looking for partners to jointly develop cloud computing technology, do not rule out the possibility of building a cloud computing subsidiary. At this year's Consumer electronics expo, including Haier, Hisense, the United States, the wave, Microsoft and many other well-known enterprises at home and abroad have brought related products and technologies, to share the "cloud" brought about by the change. In fact, Google, Microsoft, IBM, Sun and other industry bosses have also released their own cloud plans and related products.
China's local governments are also in the midst of the deployment of cloud computing. Chengdu to build the world's largest cloud services and terminal products manufacturing base, Beijing's "Xiang Xiangyun Project", Shanghai's "Sea of Clouds" show the local government to vigorously develop cloud computing determination.
Cloud technology leads consumption boom
For consumers, cloud computing is not an abstract term and noun, but a real change and experience in the consumer realm. In fact, cloud technology is changing people's lives a little bit.
Cloud technology "floated" into the mobile phone. Today, China's mobile phone users have broken 900 million, the mobile internet era is a firm step forward, which also provides a chance to the cloud technology. "Mobile cloud" fuses all kinds of social carriers on mobile phones, Motorola, Samsung and other mobile phone manufacturers have launched cloud accounts, people's handheld social life is showing new changes; Yulong is based on cloud computing, the first to push the big screen smartphone; Apple's icloud is officially unveiled, Jobs takes Apple's cloud strategy; As for cloud storage, has become the most basic, the most popular service. Of course, in addition to mobile phone manufacturers, home appliances manufacturers are also in the cloud computing, by these terminal products, cloud computing is expected to enter the ordinary people home.
Cloud technology to build information medicine. Experts say cloud computing is a platform for next-generation health-care information systems. The success of cloud computing determines the future of it healthcare vendors. Therefore, cloud computing solutions are also the focus of the IT medical manufacturers. The addition of cloud computing, or for China's medical system to bring great changes, will allow consumers to enjoy more advanced and thoughtful service.
Cloud computing changes E-commerce. In the 2011, Internet Information Fragmentation and cloud computing are becoming more sophisticated, and cloud computing has brought about fundamental changes in life, production patterns and business models. The deep application of e-commerce in the cloud makes it the first legion of cloud computing applications. Based on the principle of cloud computing network shopping platform, can be pooled in all areas of network products and application services. User information processing, network shopping, information, games and other network requirements can be integrated one-stop. Therefore, cloud computing can not only solve the problem of data processing, but also bring the integration of services, which greatly attracted the attention of various e-commerce enterprises. In fact, Amazon, EBay, Alibaba and other e-commerce tycoons have already been in the cloud, and the domestic regions have launched a local cloud service platform to provide services for E-commerce enterprises.
Users don't forget cloud security
The landing of cloud computing has greatly changed the way people live. But this "cloud" is not perfect, cloud security has become a beautiful cloud services in an urgent need to pay attention to the problem.
News from the People's daily said that the Internet Security Report, released in the first half of the year 2011, showed that as more and more valuable user data were transferred to the cloud, the cloud, which stored the data, was becoming a new target for hacking.
Experts say cloud computing practices can save costs and ease the operational internal servers, but the actual level of security is not as unassailable as cloud-computing vendors have advertised. The cloud computing architecture is inherently weak, and this weakness will be a target for hackers to attack. Jinshan Network CEO Fu also pointed out that cloud security is decided to kill the soft future pattern of the important battlefield. To address the growing problem of cloud security, some insiders pointed out that the establishment of cloud security standards is a matter of urgency.
For consumers, the new experience of cloud computing is important, but if the basic security is not guaranteed, experience cloud services is a little more than the gain. In other words, the cloud security issue has compromised the attractiveness of cloud services. Therefore, cloud computing to smooth in the consumer area to settle down, and access to consumer favor, security issues must first be resolved, otherwise everything is empty talk.
Thankfully, cloud security issues have aroused widespread concern today. I believe that in the near future, the tireless efforts of all parties will certainly create a safe and convenient cloud computing service environment for consumers.
