Pacific Telecom builds green cloud computing platform

Cloud computing as the 2011 the highest rate of it terminology, much attention. But many people know cloud computing is still foggy, and the "Shenzhen Cloud" has been the rain landing: Shenzhen is one of five domestic cloud computing pilot cities, Shenzhen, the first development of cloud computing industry in the country, set up the first cloud computing Industry Association, the Establishment of cloud computing center and the Establishment of Cloud computing alliance.

At present, cloud computing has been considered as an important project in the "Twelve-Five industry planning." According to the authority of the forecast, China's cloud computing industry in the next few years the annual composite growth rate will exceed 80%, to "Twelve-Five" end, the output value will be broken billions.

Today, we will take you to visit the famous cloud computing enterprise in Shenzhen-Pacific Telecom, this journey will help you out of the fog, presenting a full range of cloud computing application world.

Cloud computing affects people's lives like hydroelectric coal.

Cloud computing is a unified dispatch of all resources, on demand, as we do with water and electricity. In the past, for example, every household had a well and was idle when it was not available; now we have built a water net, and we can use it as much as we need it. The same is true of cloud computing. It may be physically very far away, but when used like it is around, it is a low-cost and efficient new way of information processing.

Cloud computing highlights green energy-saving advantages

Global IT carbon emissions have accounted for 2% of total global carbon emissions, while data center consumption is growing at a rate of $300 million a year.

In China, over the past 15 years, there are 1500 internet base service providers, 2.6 million IDC engine room servers serving the Chinese Internet. The information industry developed Shenzhen has 300,000 small and medium-sized enterprises, servers about 300,000 units, according to each household 400 degrees per month electric calculation, the server consumes electricity equivalent to 160,000 households in Shenzhen for one year electricity consumption.

Pacific Telecom using private cloud technology to build a green cloud computing platform for large enterprises, through the implementation of virtualization application integration, the data center in a year can save up to 30%, and significantly improve the efficiency of server operations. Pacific Telecom Flexible Cloud mainframe dedicated services to SMEs, so that enterprises reduce energy consumption of about 60%, enterprises do not need enough to buy the server, the use of cloud host flexible billing, on demand, to minimize it costs.

Animation Cloud to create domestic "Avatar"

Hollywood movie "Avatar" The use of 30,000 processors for 3 years to complete the entire film rendering effects, "Transformers 3" in the powerful rendering technology support, only to the audience to show a near-perfect animation effect, all this benefit from the tens of thousands of rendering server efficient operation.

As a result of film and television animation effect production of large amounts of data, exquisite rendering of the animation production of hardware equipment put forward a very high demand for domestic animation enterprises, high hardware investment in the existence of fast depreciation, not easy to expand, resources idle and so on, intangible increase in animation business operating costs, become a constraint on the development of animation enterprises bottlenecks.

According to statistics, 3D animation companies or game manufacturers require an average of 2000 hours of rendering time per year, an average of more than 12 rendering nodes, the need for at least 12 servers, infrastructure investment plus a cabinet of the annual hosting costs, high cost.

In order to help animation enterprises to solve the high hardware input and low efficiency rendering problems, Pacific Telecom and Shaanxi animation industry platform to create "animation cloud", animation enterprises to use the Pacific Telecom cloud platform to achieve resources on demand, flexible adjustment, according to the advantages of billing, without infrastructure hardware investment, no operation and maintenance costs, Animation enterprises to focus on their own production business, minimize it costs, enhance the competitiveness of enterprises.

According to Wang Yumin, general manager of Shaanxi Bird Culture Development Co., Ltd., in the next 5 years, for the rendering demand, in the fixed basic hardware investment, about to invest 4 million of the fixed assets input, plus bandwidth, operation, management and other expenditure, is expected to 8 million, But the use of Pacific Telecom animation Cloud 5 years of spending total less than 4 million yuan, visible Pacific Telecom animation cloud to reduce the burden of enterprises to enhance competitiveness is very obvious.

Invest 1 billion to build a world-class cloud computing data center

This May, the Pacific Telecom Cloud Computing Data Center in Chongqing, the New River water and soil High-tech Industrial Park broke ground, marking the Chongqing International Offshore cloud Computing Special Test area (cloud SAR) construction into the implementation phase. Director of Chongqing Municipal Government and Pacific Telecom CEO Lin Yiping attended the ceremony and announced the project started.

As the first company in Chongqing Cloud computing business opportunities, Pacific Telecom Investment 1 billion, the construction of offshore, in the bank of about 1500 cabinets of the data room, a total of about 30,000 servers, built in the Pacific Telecom in the southwest of the first world-class data center, is expected to be operational in 2012. According to the introduction, these 30,000 servers, the international most advanced data processing technology, can bear the equivalent of two years before the workload of hundreds of thousands of servers.

"Cloud project" takes root in Shenzhen to serve China

Li Wentao, general manager of the Pacific Telecom Cloud computing Division, said that the Pacific Telecom "cloud Project" will provide the industry with a wealth of cloud computing solutions, build a win-lose ecological chain. "Zhen Yun Plan" includes the elastic Cloud host solution, the private cloud platform, Shaanxi Animation cloud, Chongqing Offshore Cloud zone and other innovative products and services, the future Pacific Telecom will take root in Shenzhen, and actively participate in Shenzhen cloud computing industry, and jointly create a complete cloud computing industry chain.
