Words will be "cloud", new products will be "cloud" word, cloud computing, cloud services or cloud functions do not know when to become no less than micro-BO, group buying these words of the popular concept, but the business of cloud computing in what Abacus?

Platform as service:

Enclosure Enterprise

Platform as a service is Microsoft last year, the concept of cloud computing, and unprecedented in the Chinese market to maintain global synchronization. In Microsoft's official description: "Pay-as-You-go", "personalized customer performance and cost requirements" are frequent service patterns, regardless of whether the service architecture is on the Microsoft server or on the user's own server.

In the eyes of analysts, the sale of operating system software, Office software from the Microsoft Cloud computing model, mainly for enterprise-class users, such enterprises also have Domain name service agencies in China million network and recently released a grand cloud platform.

Alibaba was nationalized in 2009 by the Chinese million network to become the layout of Ali Cloud computing system important pieces. In the four quarter of last year, China million network announced to start with Ali's Aliyun cooperation deployment cloud strategy, in Domain name, server hosting and other areas of action. Later, however, Aliyun's role was subtly altered, and the author later described it.

It is worth mentioning that not long ago, the old game company Shanda also to China million network of related business, full line "cloud platform", involving cloud host, cloud storage, cloud hard disk, digital distribution, cloud monitoring and other enterprise-class applications, simply say is "enterprise data or service hosted in Grand." Grand Chairman of the Chen on this not without a high-profile, "a big cloud of genes", "has been brewing for ten years."

Interestingly, there are different features in the enterprise-class cloud industry chain. It is reported that chip giant AMD and Beijing cloud base and other enterprises to achieve cooperation, for the implementation of cloud computing enterprises to provide CPU and other hardware equipment, the North Dragon Network has launched enterprise-oriented cloud domain name resolution ... For example: an IT enterprise operating system and office software using Microsoft's cloud services, the enterprise data data hosted in China million network or the grand cloud hard drive, in order to protect against the attack, domain name also uses the North Dragon Network Cloud resolution services, and these cloud companies are likely to use the latest AMD processor.

Coincidentally, the concept of cloud computing with individual users is also the goal of many IT companies. In recent days, the Aliyun of Alibaba's cloud computing strategy suddenly "pro-people" up, combined with the day to push smart phone Aliyun OS mobile phone.

Although the outside world according to the mobile phone in the built-in mobile Taobao, mobile phone, such as Wang Wang and many other applications to determine: This is the Ali electric business empire to move the natural extension of the end. But Aliyun President Jian said the Aliyun OS aspires to the entire Internet ecosystem, Aliyun mobile phone is "the world's first cloud smartphone." More crucially, "getting through with the PC account" and "high-capacity" cloud storage are the two points they are most focused on.

Some analysts point out that cloud computing such as cloud storage and other functions to expand to the individual user level, "is more than Apple's stimulus." In May this year, Apple announced the concept of integrating a variety of clouds into the next generation of iOS, with "icloud account interoperability" and cloud storage capabilities.

The analysts pointed out that, differentiated from enterprise users, personal user exposure to cloud computing more focused on "timely" and "portable" features, "account interoperability" and cloud storage is the most easily implemented concepts and functions. It is reported that, in addition to Aliyun, Qihoo 360 and Jinshan also launched the Mobile client cloud storage function. And in the PC desktop market, Thunderbolt also has this kind of layout.

It is noteworthy that Baidu, Tencent and other internet giants in the cloud computing User level layout is not clear. In the eyes of China million network president Lu Zhong, "cloud computing is not a easy thing", Ali Department has invested 2 billion yuan in cloud computing.
