Cloud computing strategy for the three operators will enter the peak of implementation

China Telecom Cloud Computing Data Center (IDC) project has officially settled in Hohhot, the total investment estimate of 12 billion yuan. It is reported that IDC is one of the pillars of cloud computing industry, with the China Telecom Hohhot IDC Project announced, the next 3-5 years, the three major operators IDC investment level will be maintained in more than billion. At the same time, China Mobile "big Cloud" program key technology launch standards, the industry expects the end of this year or early next year, operators cloud computing strategic layout will officially enter the implementation peak.

According to the agreement signed between China Telecom and the Inner Mongolia People's government, China Telecom will build a cloud computing data center in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. The project is divided into two-phase construction, the total investment estimated 12 billion yuan. A total investment of more than 5 billion yuan, including the entire development zone of optical network pipeline transmission Routing and capacity will reach 400,000 host servers.

According to China Telecom, the project will provide the whole society with cloud computing host management platform, Self Service Portal management platform, cloud Data Management center and cloud computing host business hosting and other related computing, storage and intelligent network resources Integrated services for the Government, enterprises and individuals to provide a full range of intelligent information services.

China Mobile also announced in November, in the Hohhot Sheng Lok Modern services cluster building cloud computing data center, is expected to invest more than 10 billion yuan, planning medium-term capacity reached 40,000 racks.

In addition, China Unicom announced that it will increase investment in data center (IDC) in 2012, and plans in the next three years in Langfang, Dalian, Wuxi, Dongguan, Nanning, Hohhot and Chongqing and other seven cities to establish a large five-star data center, the total investment is expected to reach tens of billions of yuan, has now entered the siting stage.

With China Telecom Hohhot IDC Project announced, the next 3-5 years, the three major operators IDC investment level in Bai. Industry expects that, as one of the pillar industries of cloud computing, the construction of Domestic data Center (IDC) will usher in explosive growth. However, under the wave of local government and enterprise, how to avoid duplicate construction in the reasonable layout should be considered in the large-scale investment of operators.

Since the second half of this year, the three major operators have announced the cloud computing development strategy. China Telecom launched its sky-wing cloud computing strategy, brand and solution in August this year, and plans to launch a series of sky-wing cloud computing products such as cloud host and cloud storage next year. At present, China Telecom cloud host and cloud storage services have been tested commercial, will be formally operated next year. During the "Twelve-Five" period, its cloud computing data center will have the ability to provide millions of high-performance virtual hosts.

November, China Mobile released the big Cloud 1.5 version system platform, has now realized the Distributed file system, the distributed massive Data Warehouse, the distributed computing framework, the cloud computing system management, the cloud storage system, the elasticity computation systems, the Parallel data mining tool and so on key functions.

In fact, China Mobile's "big cloud" research and development project has been launched since 2007, and in May 2010 officially released the "Big Cloud" 1.0 results. In the future, China Mobile will have more and more businesses running on cloud computing platforms, and business models based on cloud computing platforms are also being explored.

At the same time, the Ministry of Public 5th publicly solicit views on 36 electronic national standards. Among them, China Mobile big Cloud Plan key technology elasticity Computation application Electronic industry standard project, also in the opinion request list.

Industry insiders generally believe that operators have the basic network, network operation capabilities and customer resources are the basis for testing cloud computing business model, at present, the three major operators have put forward a complete cloud computing development plan, and open the relevant resources, which to improve the cloud computing industry chain and promote the landing of cloud computing technology is of great significance. It is expected that at the end of this year or early next year, operators cloud computing strategic layout will officially enter the implementation peak.
