IBM to launch a primary "cloud computing" product and service this week

IBM will launch some of its primary "cloud computing" products and services this week, according to the New York Times.

IBM's cloud computing products and services will be targeted at specific computing services, the report said. Just as Google uses cloud computing to optimize web search, IBM uses cloud computing to compute business services.

It is reported that one of the products focused on simplifying the technology used by the company's software developers and testers, the other is a virtual desktop service, through which PC software can be run on a remote server, with a simple desktop computer with a monitor and keyboard. According to the New York Times report, IBM found that such virtual PCs could save 70% of its energy consumption compared to traditional PCs and reduce technical support spending by 40% in customer tests.

Cloud computing is an internet-based Super computing model that centralizes the vast amount of information and processing resources stored on personal computers, mobile phones and other devices, and works together as a new way of sharing infrastructure. Analysts point out that cloud computing has the potential to help companies and government agencies cut costs and reduce technological complexity. However, for safety and reliability reasons, many big businesses and government agencies are wary.
