How many years did the vision of cloud computing come true?

In a few years ago, cloud computing was still a nascent product in China. The "cloud" era was only a vague vision. At the time many of the widely held cloud computing vision of quietly changing people's lives:

Online office

In any place with the Internet to complete the traditional work that must be done in the office. Because the cloud computing model allows individuals no longer subject to application software, data storage and even hardware limitations, so that "everywhere network" has become "everywhere computer."

Cloud storage

Just need an account and password, and much lower than the price of mobile hard disk, you can use any place with the Internet faster than the removable hard disk service. No longer need to download and store music and other resources in advance. Cloud computing service provider's "cloud" for us to assume the task of storage.

Everywhere life's butler

Only need to record on a digital device once, you can synchronize and remind the electronic calendar on all devices; only need a key, you can have a map of the world, and even traffic, weather conditions and additional information A search engine that gives a powerful information-processing capability;

Ubiquitous service, no longer important equipment

Cloud computing will be the center of digital life, hosting applications, content and parameter settings. No longer worry about the accidental loss of their own data, do not need powerful hardware and constantly updated software, just need to wave at any time, move your mouth can get the information you want to complete their work and entertainment, "very cool and very sci-fi Future life. "

...

There is even a longing for the cloud era such as "Internet of Things", "Cloud Games", "Cloud Social Networking", "Cloud Security" and "Enterprise Cloud" that came into being as the cloud computing came into being.

Every new technology will make our life more convenient. Although most individual users do not know or care about the concept of cloud computing, we suddenly discover that the application of cloud computing technology in life More and more widely, more and more habits have been quietly changed.

These early years of vision, such as personal cloud storage, have become a reality. More and more enterprises and institutions have implemented virtual desktops and mobile offices through the deployment of cloud platforms. More and more systems for enterprise applications and personal services have also begun to migrate to cloud data centers.

In fact, a considerable number of users already have benefited from the cloud computing platform. For example, the "cloud information platform" driven by the policy of "new healthcare reform" will build a "public service platform" that is actively promoted by government agencies at all levels through cloud computing technologies, and some online education cloud platforms based on cloud computing.

In recent years, well-known IT and ICT (information and communications technology) enterprises all play "cloud computing", such as well-known Aliyun, Baidu Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Jingdong Cloud, such as telecom cloud and other major operators Cloud platform, another example is the cloud computing solutions of some equipment suppliers and so on.

Even the well-known domestic telecommunications equipment provider Huawei, in its transformation of ICT solution providers, proposed a cloud computing infrastructure and FusionCloud cloud computing solution for government-owned enterprises, telecom operators, large enterprises and traditional industries in transition Program, through the fourth consecutive annual cloud computing conference organized by the massive momentum into the public and industrial customers vision. The introduction of horizontal integration, vertical integration, access integration and data fusion in-one all-in-one fusion of operators, enterprises and industry traditional data center IT infrastructure, "Fusion Refactoring", which is compatible with the industry standard AWS SP and OpenStack agreement FusionSphere virtualization platform to meet the same platform of the private cloud, public cloud and hybrid cloud deployment. Huawei claims cloud computing investment and more than 40 countries, more than 260 mature commercial customers also caused a lot of foreign cloud computing manufacturers of great concern.

However, people who know it will know that although they are all cloud computing, they focus on different aspects. Cloud computing can be broadly divided into different levels of infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS), as well as technology providers - SaaS mainly for ordinary users, PaaS mainly for start-up companies and small Businesses, both of whom are more familiar with living closer to people.

The application of cloud computing in China's major industries is only a "tip of the iceberg", but with the localization of cloud computing technology products and solutions continue to mature, the rapid popularization of cloud computing concepts, cloud computing will become the future of China's major industry areas The mainstream IT application mode laid the core foundation for the informatization construction and IT operation and maintenance management of key industry users.
