Lack of cloud computing Jin Shanyun, the analysis of the data is not cold, determined to do a cloud storage platform. Throw away cloud computing does not say, Jinshan fast disk is lack of file retrieval, backup these commonly used functions, how fast disk such products are not polished well, how to deal with the requirements of a higher cloud storage platform?
Cloud storage will become Jinshan software ("Jinshan") next a gold mine, which is also seen as the symbol of the transformation of Jinshan to mobile Internet. Following the introduction of Jinshan network disk personal version more than a year, Jinshan and in the near future with a fast disk commercial version and cloud storage platform to kill into the enterprise market.
Jin Shanyun Now as a subsidiary of The Independent, is Jinshan last year in the original three business based on a new business, that is, since 2012 established the "3+1" business strategy to play, Office software and internet security as the pillar business, while vigorously supporting the "Jin Shanyun" cloud storage business. Jin Shanyun now by Jinshan CEO Zhanghongjiang personally fencing, in the press conference, Zhanghongjiang and Jin Shanyun CTO Yang Gang repeatedly mentioned Jin Shanyun storage of the selling point is safety, and security has been Jinshan pillar industry, can remove cloud storage security worries.
Talking about the relationship between the fast disk and the cloud storage platform, Zhanghongjiang told TI Media "The cloud storage platform below is the platform service, and our fast-disk Enterprise Edition and Personal Edition are all built on this platform". Future Jinshan target market focus in enterprises and developers, this year will increase the fast disk Enterprise version and cloud storage platform to promote the strength, just been selected into the Xiangyun plan Jin Shanyun storage platform, the new enterprise cloud storage users up to 1000.
The reason to enter the enterprise market is because the domestic individual users do not pay the habit, in the short term is difficult to profit; Although most of the domestic enterprises have not yet taken advantage of the cloud to operate a large number of operations, but the use of cloud storage office enterprises and entrepreneurial developers are becoming a trend. "Jin Shanyun storage platform will be Jin Shanyun profit cycle of the shortest business, Jinshan fast Disk Enterprise version second, and Jinshan fast disk personal version needs the longest profit." "Zhanghongjiang said.
In fact, the Jinshan fast disk in the cloud storage area is quite crowded, similar network disk products there are many. such as the domestic have cool plate, 115 network plate, Huawei Network disk, Thunder fast disk, Sina network disk, Tencent Cloud, Baidu Cloud, Aliyun, Sheng (has been closed); Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive, Apple ICloud, Amazon Network Services (Amazon Web Service , as well as new ventures Dropbox, Box.
Although the competition is fierce, but Jinshan since think and domestic counterparts play different, the start-up of those enterprises is obviously not in Jinshan competition category. "Last year a lot of other small companies died, they put cloud storage as a traditional internet company to do, think as long as the user volume up on the line, the problem is that the marginal cost of traditional internet companies is zero, and the marginal cost of cloud storage is not zero." "Zhanghongjiang said.
"Fortunately Jin Shanyun started to realize that, the first thing that I did when I was CEO was to tell you not to treat Jin Shanyun as a mobile internet company, but to make long-term investments and not to take the cost back in the short term." ”
In the titanium media, cloud storage front-end server set up and bandwidth investment is huge, the field of competition is more like the video industry, is a battle capital strength of the resource consumption war, is obviously not the general small company's game. Even if the company has a capital market such as Jinshan, it has already done three years of unprofitable plan, Jin Shanyun department has been at a loss.
With the domestic giant Baidu and Ali launched cloud computing compared to Zhanghongjiang reluctant to mention, said "I am not willing to talk about Baidu, we start different." According to the titanium media, Baidu's cloud platform has been turned by individuals to ordinary developers, Baidu wants to do is to dig out as good as Evernote cloud product star; Jinshan and Aliyun distance farther, Alibaba is committed to data-centric cloud computing, doing is the business of large data, that is, mining user data, analysis of user behavior.
Admittedly, cloud storage is a natural extension of the internet giant. In the industry's view, cloud storage seems to have evolved into a platform that spans traditional operating systems, terminal devices multi-platform, and not just a single storage feature product.
Although Jinshan cloud storage as two times, but in essence still not a start-up, Jinshan has other business. Like domestic and foreign giants, Jinshan is also looking forward to the integration of its business, such as continue to play the office advantage, will be WPS Office software and cloud storage to do deep integration, WPS Enterprise users have begun to the Jinshan demand for cloud storage. In addition to Office software, large-page travel is not low on cloud storage requirements.
"The cloud itself can be a platform that needs this platform for gaming, security, and WPS to support these businesses and make them more competitive." "Zhanghongjiang said.
Jinshan idea is good, but from now on, still bent on doing a stand-alone cloud storage platform. Whether it's Baidu, Ali, or Apple, Google, Amazon or Microsoft, cloud storage is essentially cloud computing-it requires a lot of synergy, processing, and even consumption of your personal data, and the Jin Shanyun is cloud computing. In fact, cloud storage is not the focus, these data analysis is the value of commercial liquidity.
Jin Shanyun Only just started, there are many worthy of perfection, but not treat people, Jinshan also realize this, speed up the pace of this year's target enterprises set to 1000. However, at present, Jin Shanyun business customers are not many, less than 10. I know only millet, skyworth such as terminal manufacturers and kingdee such software vendors, or the use of WPS long-term cooperative enterprise customers.
In this way, Jinshan want to rely on selling cloud storage services to attract a large number of enterprises to achieve scale-level income is not more difficult than the difficulty of cultivating individual pay users, after all, the market is far from the company, still need time to nurture.
