Lenovo CTO: Cloud computing will bring huge innovation to terminal equipment

Wevey, vice president of Lenovo Group and dean of Lenovo Institute, said that with the gradual maturation of cloud computing products, markets and business models, PCs would be endowed with many innovative applications.　　In the next 3-5 years, enterprise-oriented cloud computing terminals and personal handheld computers will dominate. The remark was silent. Cloud computing, with its mystical charms, has once again taken its toll. Antivirus fire need cloud, enterprise office is inseparable from the cloud.　　Many ordinary users can not understand what is the cloud, but still will care about this cloud will bring us what convenience? At the same time, the industry's big predators are taking action on cloud computing, with Google, IBM and Dell scrambling to launch cloud computing strategies, and Dell has even applied for cloud computing as its registered trademark.　　For a time, cloud computing seems to make people smell the smoke.　　Because of this, in the recently sponsored by the Electronics Association, IT168 co-organized the 2009 Cloud Computing China Forum, the reporter was privileged to interview the Lenovo Group senior Vice president and CTO He Zhiqiang, and the cloud to the terminal equipment and Lenovo business brought about by the innovation.　　In the cloud to liberate terminal equipment for more than 20 years, has been the development of technology-driven PC industry, now finally because of the arrival of cloud computing, return to the source.　　Cloud computing era, most of the calculation is done in the cloud, thus liberating the user's terminal, and the terminal computing power does not do too high demand, so the PC industry to move forward Moore's law began to gradually lose its magic.　　Lenovo, the most influential provider of local terminal equipment, believes cloud computing's push for terminal devices is mainly in two areas. First of all, based on the cloud computing platform, users can combine a real-time dynamic social database with the application, no need to install any application software. This is where the cloud plays the role of a dynamically changing intelligent knowledge Base and service provider. For example, Lenovo input method. Previously Lenovo input method of the database is immutable, before using users need to install the software first. And now the new type of input method based on cloud and internet came into being, which is a typical case for the company to implement productive data based on cloud computing. It not only saves the user terminal resources, but also eliminates the maintenance link. Just like 1.5 months ago when people beat pigs, the word "swine flu" must not appear on the screen.　　Now, pigs will be generating swine flu immediately, but they don't need to maintain the database manually. The same example reminds reporters of a small demo software that is now highly utilized online. It is similar to PowerPoint in Microsoft Office, but unlike traditional demo software, it has a graphics library of group maintenance. Users can contribute to the graphic materials, data and other users on the Internet to share the use.　　With the cloud, users can connect to the corresponding server through the network directly invoke the software, which will effectively reduce the cost of terminal software use, but also to avoid installation and updates at any time trouble. The second is through the cloud computing platform, users can use the Internet real-time information. such as the weather Report plug-in. On the modern traditional mobile internet, even watching the weather forecastSuch a simple act takes a lot of time. The user takes the effort to install the plugin and open it.　　But if you can make a combination between the terminal requirements and the server, you can save a lot of intermediate links.　　He Zhiqiang revealed that it was for this reason that Lenovo would release a number of new terminal devices by the end of 2009, while optimizing its own hardware and providing users with new products more suited to cloud computing services.　　A stroll in the cloud as the concept of cloud computing matures, telecom operators, hardware vendors and software service providers are integrated into the past, the dominance of the operating system and the processor platform in the traditional PC industry will decline, and PC manufacturers will have more power of speech and development opportunities. He Zhiqiang to Cioage Reporter: In addition to the above mentioned optimization hardware, in the software will also take some action.　　We will be with the service providers, operators in the operating system to add cloud Terminal application software, discuss how to make broadband optimization to ensure the quality of service, to provide users with the best experience. At the same time, cloud computing as an application model, its emergence and application scope gradually expanded, which will have far-reaching impact on the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. It will extend the application of software and hardware and change the application mode of hardware and software products. In other words, through cloud computing, users can get the application environment or application itself without having to buy new servers and deploy software. For users, hardware and software need not be deployed around their own products, but can become available, virtual resources.　　This creates the opening scene. Lenovo is an indispensable part of the cloud industry chain, and it also plays an important role in it. He Zhiqiang put it to two: the existing cloud computing applications must be complete through the terminal equipment to the user, as the terminal equipment provider of Lenovo in which will give full play to their own advantages, so that users enjoy the full convenience; In contrast, all cloud computing applications want to be perfectly presented to the user, It has to be designed in a unified way with terminal equipment to get the best user experience.　　Lenovo will continue to give the relevant experience, and with other service providers to do the best.　　In addition, cloud computing as a new business model, in the process of reclamation faced a shuffle, which brings to Lenovo: Integrated terminal and service design, SME market expansion and High-performance server business three important business opportunities. Reporter notes: When users can really use the cloud all day of the Congress to let reporters feel a lot. The rise of cloud computing has led to a marked change in both corporate and personal consumption of the two cakes, no longer the same as in the past by vendors from all levels of the eco-chain. Accidentally put the wrong direction is likely to be eliminated by technology trends, and a single big sweep and accept it seems impossible. Many of the previous it vendors advocated that cloud computing would subvert the IT community and bring new business models, but the author is more concerned about the far-reaching impact of cloud computing on users in this complex competition. Will the cloud computing terminal soon be availableCan be accepted by the vast number of individual users? I think it needs a long process.
