How far is cloud computing from life

The health cloud, a mobile phone inquires about the content of the people's livelihood of the government cloud ... In Chongqing, the International Cloud Computing Expo, a "cloud" dazzling. But at the same time, its security risks, green environmental problems are also repeatedly mentioned. How far is cloud computing from life?

The cloud era is coming quietly

Cloud computing, refers to the establishment of powerful data centers, users to maximize the simplification of personal clients, access to the data center for storage and operation. Just like in the past every household drilled wells to get water, now there is a water company, twist open the faucet can be unlimited supply. Taking an ordinary Chongqing citizen, for example, will hopefully soon experience these clouds:

Health Cloud--Chongqing 38 District residents are expected to receive a health card in the year, can be at any time to inquire about the past medical history; Residents can also use computers, television, mobile phones and other medical appointments, and by the health of the cloud regularly reminded of vaccination, health check-up, slow disease examination and other health services.

Government cloud-Wireless government is stepping up the building, industry and commerce, police, emergency and other information can be shared through the terminal. A mobile phone can query a number of people's livelihood content, easy to handle TV payment, electrical inquiries and other matters. At present, Chongqing Cloud Intelligent City Platform cumulative access to users up to 22. 50,000 people.

When you go to work or travel, you can turn to traffic clouds--use your mobile phone or navigator to see the traffic, choose the best route, and find free parking. Tourism also has a "cloud" accompanied by the current Fengdou ghost town, Wushan Hongye, Qianjiang small South Sea, Tongnan rape, North New district, Happy Plaza Five scenic spots have been able to use traffic clouds.

Members of the public can also visit more than 100 cloud communities in the city, to see the community bulletin, large supermarkets, bus lines. The reporter in Yongchuan District Wolong Dang Intelligent community to see, here parents can be "global eye" real-time attention kindergarten dolls, the neighborhood can use computers and mobile phone real-time for the masses of work, even do volunteer also can intelligent points and swap goods ...

The key to solving people's livelihood problems

Fresh, interesting, is a lot of cloud expo audience feeling. But the reporter learned that cloud computing is not only the icing on the cake, it will be a timely way to crack the key to many people's livelihood problems.

Take health Cloud as an example, Chongqing has 32 million citizens and a large number of floating population, grass-roots health facilities relatively backward, sick ugly, small disease big look and so on to make residents headache. Chongqing Municipal Health Bureau deputy director Yin Zuhai introduced, the future health information platform will cover the whole city, to achieve information connectivity, real-time monitoring. In the future, hospital drug use is unreasonable, drug price is high, conceal epidemic situation and any illegal behavior, the health department can grasp and punish in time. Through the "medical" website, the masses can also hang expert number, enjoy better medical and health services.

Traffic safety concerns will also be installed on cloud valves. Jianzhong, director of the Computer Committee of China Railway Association, said that in the past, some major traffic accidents have been distressing, the future through the application of Internet of Things and cloud computing, will gradually build intelligent transportation, not only to make traffic safer, and even to solve the problem of drunk unmanned driving and blind drivers.

"For the government, for businesses, for individuals, cloud computing will have a profound impact." Wang, Acer's chairman, said. The first is the cloud society, which is forming in the virtual world; the second is cloud services, the integration of technologies between the cloud and services, and the opportunity to innovate; third, cloud economy, business interaction cloud economy has been surging.

Chang, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Industry, said at the Cloud fair that the current cloud computing in China has a certain foundation, the application of the practice of gradual development, technological innovation has made progress, infrastructure improvement, the initial formation of the industrial chain.

How to secure the cloud

While cloud computing is in the ascendant, its security-controllable issues are also worrying. In recent years, the network information security accidents occur frequently, before long before Sony was exposed to 77 million online users personal information stolen, but also aroused widespread doubt. "Is cloud computing safe?" "Reporter search found that there are tens of thousands of related pages, the answer is opinions."

Experts predict that, under the trend of cloud, information security, privacy security is the most concern of consumers in the cloud era. Cloud Expo experts generally believe that the current security sector is the largest cloud computing difficulties, the least technical breakthroughs in one of the areas.

Nie Hua, president of Shuguang Cloud Computing Technology Co., said that the more resource-integrated systems are, the more likely they are to cause widespread breakdowns. In order to ensure the safe and reliable storage, processing and transmission of data in the cloud, we urgently need to develop an autonomous and controllable cloud computing platform.

The green issue of cloud computing is also a concern. Quying, vice president of the Greater China division of the Schneider Electric IT department, said that all data processing under cloud computing would be done through data centers and that energy consumption would be astonishing. Building a data center based on the cloud environment, which must be built faster and greener, is a big challenge for the future.

"Avoid duplication of construction and waste of resources." Lu Abbin, vice president of ZTE Corporation, thinks that compared with the advanced countries in the development of cloud computing technology, China still has the characteristics of heavy construction and light application. More attention should be focused on the application of cloud computing, innovation and so on, strongly support the development of cloud computing enterprises.
