The Global Cloud computing services market is expected to reach $42 billion trillion in 2012, according to the US International Data Company, and IDC, the US market research firm, predicts that the market for China's cloud computing services will exceed $1 billion trillion in 2014. So as a hot emerging industry, cloud-based applications, data exchange and other cloud services have been developed, both at home and abroad it and mobile internet-related companies have proposed their own cloud services products and solutions.

The current cloud services are divided into two modes, public cloud and personal cloud, the former after years of development, already has a lot of mature products, such as Amazon S3, Apple icloud, Google series of cloud applications are common in daily life, public cloud services, although the public cloud has a large server capacity, fast, Performance stability and other advantages, but the user in the use of private data processing is still a leak of embarrassment, especially in 2011, the outbreak of a variety of large-scale network information leaked events is a concern for cloud services data security.

Data show that in 2011 a number of causes of hackers malicious attacks caused the Internet personal data leakage of large events. Sony's PSN network was hacked by hackers in April, causing more than 70 million of users ' personal information to leak; in June, Citigroup confirmed the bank system was invaded and a large number of credit card holders were stolen; in July, South Korea's SK communications Company's portal, Nate and social networking site Cyworld, was hacked, Number of users stolen information 35 million. August, Japan electronics manufacturer Seiko Epson Co., Ltd. is located in South Korea's branch enterprise website encounter hackers, about 35 million user information may have been leaked; in December, China's largest developer it community CSDN Server was hacked, a large number of user passwords were exposed; multi-play network user data leakage 8 million Tianya leakage of 40 million user information, Beijing-East shopping center users of the leak, Dangdang 12 million user data leakage, Guangdong Provincial Public Security Bureau of entry-exit government service network online application data leaked 4.44 million information.

From the above leaked lead to see, basically covers the data sensitive industry leading enterprises, if like Sony, Citigroup and even the military network can not guarantee the absolute security of information, the public cloud services for ordinary users of information security will also be a big question, based on this reason, Private personal clouds can partially address the data security implications of cloud service usage.

As a personal cloud solution, the upcoming domestic cloud service product Bubble Cloud Server (Popobox) brings us a new personal cloud service model with low price, 7x24-hour stability and excellent scalability. Bubble Cloud is a personal and family based private personal cloud service solution product, it provides cloud storage, sharing and access services to family-unit users, accessible only to user-authorized friends and relatives, who have no idea of the existence of this personal cloud server, and therefore to a large extent not leading to "catches" intrusion , to eliminate the ability to show off the technology caused by hacker attacks. At the same time, the data are stored in their own home hard disk, to the user, at all times have the right to deal with these data, and really do control by themselves. Unlike data once on the Internet, it is difficult to control its flow and use purposes.

It is understood that bubble cloud using a super concise design, product power consumption of only 3W, has two USB2.0 interface, the largest support 4T USB power Drive, and the use of high-speed Ethernet network card access, without fear of insufficient bandwidth.

In terms of security, bubble cloud relies on the personal cloud service model, from hardware to software deep combination so that users do not have to worry about cloud computing data leakage problem, it brings personal cloud service concept to small and medium-sized enterprises and individual users is a future trend.
