IBM Greater China Cloud computing general Manager: Four paths to build China cloud

IBM is the world's largest information technology and business Solutions company. In the area of cloud computing, IBM is a solution and service provider positioned for enterprise-class public, private and mixed cloud, IBM itself is the cloud's biggest beneficiary, after years of practice, has become the global cloud computing industry leader, Cloud computing is its 2015 strategic roadmap of the four components. Mr. Wang Shengai, general manager of IBM Greater China, said in an interview with the reporter that 2012 IBM will help Chinese companies achieve cloud computing by four paths.

Path one: Cutting IT spending and complexity (IaaS)

"To build a cloud that aims to cut it spending and complexity, organizations can build a resource-sharing cloud service platform from the IT Infrastructure, the service (IaaS) level." IBM Wang Shengai says IBM's Smart Cloud series solution will help companies successfully build efficient cloud platforms and achieve efficient and low-cost overall IT operations.

It is understood that IBM has with a number of enterprises to achieve this goal, with Shenzhen huaxing Optoelectronic Technology Co., Ltd. has become China's largest manufacturing desktop cloud System project. "There are now more than 2,100 users. "Wang Shengai proudly introduced, Huaxing photoelectric success of its day-to-day production and research and development Office system deployed to the IBM Enterprise Desktop Cloud Environment, will revolutionize the traditional manufacturing industry based on stand-alone management-oriented production and research and development Office model.

Path two: Speed up the time-to-market of the products (PaaS)

"Enterprises can create a platform as a service (PaaS) to achieve the cloud environment of product development testing process, so that research and development departments in an efficient, shared and secure environment with various departments in close collaboration, greatly improve the progress of research and development. Wang Shengai says IBM itself is the best example of this application.

According to its introduction, IBM China Development Center has fully optimized IT infrastructure, built a cloud architecture based on IBM Tivoli Software and Solutions, and realized the "cloud" optimization of development center IT resources while ensuring the daily operation of the development center. Through the "Universal Cloud" for development testing and the "desktop Cloud" for IBM partners to participate in development, IBM China Development Center not only reduces the organization's operating costs, improves operational efficiency, but also greatly shortens project delivery and deployment time, while comprehensively enhancing the safety performance of products and technologies to achieve efficient and secure development. The IBM China Development Center has optimized its own IT infrastructure, thanks to the world's top cloud computing solutions such as ' HuanYu Cloud ', ' hslt cloud ', ' desktop cloud ' and so on. Wang Shengai revealed that this has greatly enhanced the development Center's research and development benefits: It is expected to save 10% of it costs each year, and is expected to reduce the cost of software development by 40% in 2015.

Path three: Cloud build for fast application support

Rapid changes in enterprise business requirements often require rapid and flexible response of IT applications, but traditional IT operations have become increasingly difficult to meet the rapid changes in business requirements. "Now, companies can purchase the required it application or IT environment from the service provider on a public cloud platform." Wang Shengai, IBM is now providing a wide range of public cloud services for many companies around the world.

"There are so many cases, and it's a good testimony that we help seven wolf outfits," he said. Wang Shengai told reporters that this is the industry's first "business cloud Platform" solution. The program helps seven wolves centrally manage e-commerce activities between consumers and distributors, and provides a powerful, smarter client platform for their sales and marketing strategies to prepare for future consolidation of physical retail stores. The platform will also internally integrate the company's existing systems, including retail, EBS FI, purchase orders, inventory, distribution, and financial process management applications, providing services to nearly 40 internal users.

Path four: Building a cloud for cloud service providers

For industry-leading enterprises, the cloud platform not only brings them the driving force for business development, but also becomes an important choice for them to build a new business model for the future. "These enterprises can become the leader and provider of industry cloud service by building strong public cloud platform." "These companies will have a strong advantage in realizing the standardization of cloud services in the industry and in the rapid implementation of the cloud services industry," Wang Shengai said.

IBM has been working with a large number of domestic leading companies to help build China's public cloud service model. "Foshan Music from the introduction of" things, the public cloud platform to promote industrial upgrading. "Wang Shengai said based on Foshan music from the local furniture business characteristics, IBM planning and building a" smart furniture cloud Platform "," Internet intelligence city public Cloud platform "and other internet-based public cloud platform, so as to promote music from the furniture business industry core competitiveness, to achieve" wisdom music from " and other industrial upgrading and intelligent town construction goals to provide all-round support.
