In the past 2011 years, there may not be a more appropriate rhetoric to describe cloud computing than a "technical movement", especially in China. However, from the internal logic of cloud computing, its business opportunities are not "top-down" driven, but should be "bottom-up" emergence. The effect of this "smooth and silent" is the revolution of cloud computing.
This is the current wave of a global wave-it is extremely broad, almost packed into every tiny crevice in the TMT field, it appears to have been around us and tried to subvert traditional business forms, but no one can say exactly what it is, It has a different shape in everyone's heart;
It triggers a huge crowd, a technology leader such as Steve Jobs, as small as the founders of a start-up company with perhaps two employees, almost all of the people who are related to it are talking about it, applying it, developing it, and more people are repeating themselves, or are busy sticking to a eye-catching label;
Its impact is far-reaching, some say this is after the mainframe, PC server, the third information technology revolution, but some people say that this is only an excessive boast of the concept, Silicon Valley "Bad Boy", Oracle CEO Ellison 3 years ago, the trend of cloud computing is quite disdain: " The computer industry is the only industry that prefers to pursue concepts and trends than women in the fashion industry. ”
More people are watching. Yes, we are really talking about cloud computing. In the past 2011 years, there may not be a more appropriate rhetoric to describe cloud computing than a "technical movement", especially in China.
Chinese characteristic cloud
Like many other emerging technology concepts in China's vast land, cloud computing is a hugely rich information technology keyword that is rapidly moving while hot.
Back in October 2010, Ministry of Industry and the NDRC jointly issued the "on the cloud computing Services innovation and development of the pilot model work notice" (hereinafter referred to as "notice"), selected Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Wuxi 5 cities as pilot demonstration city, the NDRC is said to have allocated 1.5 billion yuan of special funds. This October, there are news, in the 5 cities in the 15 cloud computing demonstration projects of the first batch of nearly 700 million special funds have been allocated in place, get the money including Lenovo, Baidu, Tencent, Alibaba, Huasheng Tiancheng, Kingdee software and other enterprises, including, Baidu, Alibaba's two biggest internet giants have received more than 100 million yuan of financial support.
Inspired by the "notice", the 2011 China Information Technology field, staged a cloud computing investment frenzy. Everywhere have sprung up their own "cloud planning", and the scale of the investment is huge, at every turn billions of, tens of billions of dollars.
Shanghai's action was first launched in August 2010, the "Sea of Clouds Plan", by a "Shanghai Advanced cloud Computing Industry Development Action Program (2010-2012 years)" 3 years of action plan to support, plans to 2012, to cultivate 10 annual sales of billions of cloud computing enterprises, The new operating income of the information service industry is 100 billion yuan.
Beijing's pace is almost in line with the notice. In October last year by the Beijing Municipal Commission and NDRC, Zhongguancun Management Committee jointly issued the "Beijing Xiangyun Project" Action plan, put forward to 2015, the formation of 200 billion yuan industrial scale, to build Asia's largest cloud server production base.
The other typical "cloud plan" also has Guangzhou's "Sky Cloud Plan", Shenzhen's "Kun Cloud Plan", Ningbo's "Nebula Plan" and so on, before long, China Telecom announced investment 12 billion yuan in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, the construction of cloud computing data center.
And Chongqing, with its rocket-like speed and breathtaking boldness, to the "cloud plan" in the name of the cloud computing construction frenzy to the peak. In January this year, Chongqing municipal government in the city "two sessions" during the first time, Chongqing will be built into the country's largest cloud computing center, targeting the "global Data development and Processing center": The end of millions of servers, production value of hundreds of billions of dollars in the scale of the "cloud" base. Soon, April 6, known as China's largest "cloud computing" experimental area-"The River International Cloud Computing Center" in the Chongqing Liang Jiang New zone opened. It is said that the center has a total construction area of 2.07 million square meters, a total investment of 40 billion yuan, construction planning period of 5 years, will eventually reach the Chi scale. Its core area is planned to occupy about 3 square kilometers of data rooms in line with international standards. April 21, a planning area of 15 square kilometers, a total investment of 50 billion yuan, a more ambitious cloud computing industry base project in Chongqing Jiangjin area started.
"The scope of their business, an international way, a focus on the domestic." Two Rivers International Cloud computing Center plans 2-3 years after the formation of 1 million servers, mainly engaged in large-scale offshore data processing business, to achieve global data processing, and Jiangjin cloud computing industry base, engaged in the data processing in the bank, that is, domestic data processing. Chongqing Mayor Huang said that in 3 years, Chongqing will basically build China's largest offshore and onshore data processing center.
The technical director of a multinational company at that time heard of Chongqing's "cloud Plan", once to the reporter smiled and spit out the tongue: "This cloud computing how to engage in real estate like." "But it's a great market opportunity for equipment manufacturers like us," he said. ”
