How does cloud computing play a role in the country's development?

Creek "Cloud" beginning: Since 2006 Google CEO Schmidt first proposed "cloud computing" the word, this concept is popular IT industry. In the information field, almost all the well-known http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/12039.html "> multinationals compete to launch their own cloud computing products and services." In particular, Google, Microsoft, IBM, Yahoo and Amazon five companies, the "cloud" as their future development strategy core, and invested heavily in building large-scale "cloud computing" center, trying to monopolize the global information storage and computing services market. At the same time, Silicon Valley in the United States, there are more than 200 new "cloud computing" innovative enterprises are emerging, in technology, services, business models and other aspects of the challenge and subvert the existing IT industry pattern.

Cloud is unknown: cloud computing is seen as the third wave of information technology, and will bring about fundamental changes in working methods and business models. Why do you say that? First of all, the "cloud" is a repetition of the transformation of mechanical power in the field of information technology in the last century. Second, "cloud" generated collective intelligence, breaking the "Turing" model, in other words, "cloud" subversion of the traditional mode of application, so that computer applications from the "desktop" to the "network." This shows that the "cloud" will make the information become the social, organizational and personal basic attributes, and create a new economic era. The Global Cloud computing services market will grow by an average of 26% a year over the next 4 years, according to IDC. Li Deii, a computer engineering expert, said that the cloud computing industry's future development rate will be 6 times times the current IT industry.

The black "cloud" presses the city: in the globalization era that the science and technology forces shape the new logic of economic relations, multinational enterprises increasingly have more influence than the country. "Cloud computing" will also have a significant impact on national strategic development. For this reason, the developed countries, especially the United States, will occupy strategic heights. At present, high performance computing has become a third kind of scientific research method besides theory and experiment. A number of U.S. research institutions are trying to "cloud computing" to provide a large number of scientific data and super computing capacity, in order to promote the process of civilian research.

Cloud computing also increases differences among countries. At present, the information technology field is gradually monopolized by developed countries, especially the United States, the world's real strength research and development and provide "cloud computing" services companies only Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, IBM and Amazon, a few it giants. While developing countries have no technical power, their strategic choices are very limited. In front of "cloud", national information security and mainstream thought culture are challenged. The development of "cloud computing" will lead to the global information in the collection, transmission, storage, processing and other aspects of further concentration, the national information will be "to the state" of the trend to be severely tested.

Sit and watch "cloud": Cloud computing has a big impact on economics, technology and security. In view of the aggressiveness of multinational enterprises in "cloud computing" and the far-reaching plan of Governments ' development of "cloud computing", China should establish its own cloud computing platform from the national strategic level, make full use of cloud computing as an advanced productivity to enhance our innovative ability and ensure national information security.

In recent years, the United States and other countries have strengthened the legislative management of cyberspace, in the information security related laws and regulations of the framework for the formulation of a series of measures. China's legislative management in cyberspace has lagged behind, facing the upcoming cloud computing, we should take precautions, from the national level to strengthen legislative management. As a breakthrough in development, we can take the lead in the application of cloud computing as an advanced information technology architecture in the education field of new Media service platform of the national education, in order to meet the great demand of the development of our country's current and future lifelong education.
