Sohu Private Cloud: Creating a convenient cloud office experience

September 4, 2013, the first China System architects conference opened at four points by Sheraton Beijing Hotel. As an architect of the highest technical standards in the country today, the theme of this year's conference is "sharing enterprise IT application best practices", inviting top IT architects and engineers to focus on the "cloud architecture, IT infrastructure optimization, it architecture changes under large data" three hot topics, Share technology trends and best practices.

At the meeting, Sohu Wuhan Research and Development Center Director Chu Yingbo in the conference to do the private cloud construction of Sohu keynote speech, from the construction of private cloud of the original intention, scope of work, investment resources and private cloud status, the first public share of Sohu in private cloud construction practice planning and thinking. He believes that the change brought about by cloud storage is essentially to reduce costs and improve efficiency. For enterprises, cloud storage is not only a great temptation, but also a change to accept.

Private Cloud Blue Ocean: Full build Enterprise Cloud Intelligent Office Platform

As early as the 2011 IDC Cloud Computing End-User Research survey found that Chinese users are more inclined to apply the private cloud, because it can quickly respond to their business needs, make it resources more efficient use. Chu Yingbo pointed out that for the general Growth enterprises, low-cost, high reliability, easy to operate private cloud services more appropriate, private cloud can enable customers to avoid the drawbacks of cloud services while enjoying the benefits of cloud computing, is a less risky way.

But in reality, because of the high cost of private cloud, most small and medium-sized enterprises can not afford their own overall maintenance tasks, once the important data mistakenly deleted, the system crashes or hard disk damage, the impact may be the enterprise's huge economic and credibility losses. In addition, along with the rapid development of data informationization, the problems that appear in the enterprise information management are more and more, the number of documents produced in the work is increasing rapidly, the storage is relatively dispersed, the files are easy to be lost, the trouble is shared, etc., which hinders the efficient and safe office of enterprises. Sohu Private cloud is focused on this piece of blue sea, the full construction of enterprise Cloud Intelligent Office platform. Sohu Enterprise Network is launched by Sohu is dedicated to enterprise data resources and application management of cloud storage products. It can provide a safe, reliable and efficient data storage system, at the same time for the enterprise internal data management characteristics, to achieve efficient and flexible data management, easy to achieve mobile cooperative office.

Exerting force cloud storage: Key Layout Network disk application

In the keynote speech, Chu Yingbo talked about the next development plan of Sohu Private cloud, said Sohu will continue to exert the enterprise mailbox in the second half of 2013, and will move the layout center of gravity to the cloud storage, expand Sohu in the enterprise network market space completely.

Chu Yingbo said, with the traditional network disk function is slow transmission speed, redundancy backup, difficult to docking mobile terminals and other bottlenecks, has been unable to meet the growing user needs of netizens, "cloud storage" is considered to be a new revolution in the network industry. In the face of recent Baidu, Huawei, Tencent, 360 and other giants set off a free wave of the network, Chu Yingbo said, the free network of the Battle of the main business only for personal network disk, the application of the Enterprise network disk is not a big achievement. He believes that the expansion of the network in the office area is not only this step. In the trend of cloud computing, network disk as the core of data storage and management, not only to provide storage functions, but to be committed to become the cornerstone of corporate office, to provide synergy, file classification management, such as the necessary functions of many enterprises. For example, you can achieve day-to-day Office files backup and synchronization, supporting the storage and management of centralized files, convenient file sharing, flexible management of historical versions of documents and so on, all of which will greatly reduce enterprise IT investment, improve office efficiency. and Sohu Private cloud construction more focus on the development of network disk office functions. The basic architecture of Sohu Private cloud includes service workflow, cluster control process, data feedback process, the goal is to simplify the operation of enterprises, sharing resources, the integration of existing basic resources, at the same time with high security and sensitive cluster hosting, the release of the accident quickly back, versioning release support, online testing and other functions, Office for the enterprise to create a fast and convenient cloud office experience, for enterprise users are set storage, backup, synchronization, sharing as one of the cloud Office platform.

Data privacy encryption: Protecting private cloud data security

The information security in large data age should be paid enough attention, and storage security is the focus of Sohu private cloud. Chu Yingbo said Sohu Private cloud has a multiple data privacy encryption system to protect the privacy of information data. From infrastructure encryption to Web applications and terminal device encryption, layer levels protect the user's data security.
