Low cost - an opportunity for cloud computing in China

In recent years, the elites in the IT field have all focused on the same area - cloud computing. Some people think that cloud computing is an advanced product born after the technological revolution. However, some people think that cloud computing is merely an up-to-date package of the existing technology, and only a commercial strategy of equipment manufacturers and software manufacturers. The Xiaobian believe that cloud computing is the social and economic development and the promotion of demand, technological progress and business model transformation and other common result.

IT facilities wanting to be social infrastructure now face high cost bottlenecks that include at least: labor costs, capital costs, time costs, usage costs, and environmental costs. The benefits of cloud computing are obvious: users do not need a dedicated IT team, they do not need to buy, maintain, or deploy tangible IT products, and they can use IT services on demand, on a cost-effective and efficient basis. Cloud computing service providers Can greatly improve the utilization rate of resources (hardware, software, space, manpower, energy, etc.) and business response speed, and effectively aggregate the industrial chain.

One of the advantages of cloud computing is low cost, which will be a great opportunity for the development of cloud computing in China. In China, a great majority of 42 million SMEs want to use information services at a low cost. The traditional way of IT services, whether hardware infrastructure, post-development software, maintenance management requires a lot of time and capital investment, cloud computing can completely abandon these shortcomings. Hardware, it can be said to be zero, all applications into the cloud, as long as the network can be. Software development, the previous low-level development work has been completed by the cloud computing vendors, users only need to customize their own processes, logic, etc. can be used, you can follow the cloud to adjust the application, no longer have to worry about the software life cycle is too short for the follow-up Excessive investment. Eight hundred customers based on the SaaS model of CRM reflects this, the monthly payment in the form of the entire application construction costs are very low, greatly reducing the input and improve the utilization of funds.

In the past, enterprise applications needed a long time to communicate with their business needs in the early days of their enterprise applications, and then they could increase the number of application-supported hardware devices, develop or customize required modules according to actual needs, and even maintain and train post-staff professionals. The whole process is very complicated, leaving many domestic SMEs discouraged. The cloud computing is completely without these problems, the application can be completely customized, after a simple training, you can not understand programming, do not understand the situation of the database to customize applications and modules, and can be adjusted at any time follow-up, increase the application, The whole process is efficient and easy.

Cloud computing across the oceans, perhaps one of our options, many people will look overseas cloud computing, such as Salesforce. However, a great direction of cloud computing enterprise applications is from technology to service transformation, the user is not buying technology, but also do not care about how new and how high technology, only value information services in the end to bring their own how much convenience and effectiveness, Therefore, some foreign management concepts, service methods to acclimatized in China.

For the simplest example, although Salesforce has many agency companies in China, the servers that provide services are always on the other side of the ocean. The access speed is much slower than that of domestic servers. When one encounters network congestion, it is even more imaginable. Delayed access to all information, the loss of business is not simply reflected in the user experience so simple. On the contrary, local enterprises have unique advantages and are well acquainted with China's national conditions and are much smoother in their deployment, training and maintenance. This is one of the reasons why the first enterprise-class cloud computing manufacturer in China, eight hundred customers, can rapidly accumulate more than 19,600 enterprise users and achieve 99.9% customer satisfaction.
