2011 Cloud Computing is no longer "God horse cloud", walked down the "altar", came to the general public side. IDC, Gartner, Sadie Consultants, CCW information and other well-known research institutions at home and abroad that the 2011 will be the global cloud computing development of the landing year. Not only Amazon, Google, Microsoft, IBM, Apple and other major international companies have launched cloud computing enterprise applications, China's local software, new and old brands have also launched new strategy and new products, together to promote Chinese enterprises stroll cloud.
As the most basic management application software OA (office automation software) in the "cloud" to catch up, the wind red, and smart phones and tablet computers, but also let Cloud mobile OA become a domestic mobile commerce a dark horse, "money" broad.
OA steps into the cloud and the future is available
OA software Development So far, experienced from scratch, the pattern from a single fixed to multidimensional and changeable collaborative application mode of conversion, technical experience by the PHP era, Domino era,. NET ERA to today's Java era, technical framework has migrated from C/S to B/s, in the application of the scope of the e-mail era, the era of official document management, knowledge of the document era, workflow era, concept, technology, function constantly upgrading, so that OA constantly surpass, from the "Ugly Duckling" into a "beautiful swan." Now with the cloud technology, mobile communication technology, such as a large number of rise, cloud OA, Mobile OA application Tide also surging, OA into the cloud mobile new era.
In September announced the first cloud platform McLoud Online, Microsoft announced the launch of the company's private cloud services, the main office OA application. Based on the McLoud architecture, Microsoft is fully committed to creating a service called OA cloud that enables enterprise users to access Office applications placed on private clouds: Collaborative platform SharePoint Server 2010, Office 2010, and consolidated Communications Products Office Communications Server 2007. Microsoft launched the OA Cloud Cloud office services, mainly based on SaaS service model to provide business operations, business expansion of the office management required, integrated communications, collaborative operations and other services.
And as a leading domestic OA enterprise Ufida, strong software, Kingdee software, gold and software, and so now is also committed to cloud OA research and development, for small enterprises, micro-enterprises to provide cost-effective and convenient office management services. This service includes instant messaging, office management, customer management, human resource management, and cloud hosting, which covers the basic modules of day-to-day management of the enterprise and the main IT infrastructure, and is a booster for the enterprise toward standardized management.
Experts predict that with the help of cloud computing, 2011-2013, the collaborative OA software market growth rate will remain around 30%, 2013 total market will reach 13.22 billion yuan. Data show that domestic OA has accounted for more than 70% of the total office automation market share, the next 5 years will likely increase to more than 80%. This shows that the collaborative market is expected to have considerable prospects, the trend is significant!
The unique advantage of cloud OA is obvious, the new choice of SME informatization
Many traditional information construction, cumbersome deployment, the implementation cycle seems too long to keep pace with the needs of enterprises and market response; The enterprise's it construction way is too old, the group integration control, operation is difficult to guarantee; The enterprise Information Island outstanding, the data cannot share, affects the enterprise management and the integration benefit; IT resources cannot be effective, Waste of resources, too dependent on fixed pc, in addition, information construction investment costs, maintenance costs also appear too high.
Therefore, the vast number of small and medium-sized enterprises thirst for economic, fast and efficient information construction of a new model, cloud OA came into being.
"From ASP to SaaS, then to the evolution of cloud computing, software that is the service platform technology after a big change, cloud, big changes to the traditional OA, Cloud OA with its Super computing power, super storage, Super save mode, Super convenient service, another unique advantage, deeply attract small and medium-sized enterprises. He Jie, president of the strong software, said.
First, do not need too much hardware and software input, the application of economic convenience. We know that the traditional office software requires users to purchase software separately, server to run, even if some customers because of small size and installed in the LAN's high-end PC running, but also to the database system procurement, installation, operating systems and other related hardware and software deployment, maintenance and other aspects of investment in a lot of money and manpower. and cloud OA products so that enterprises hardly need to put into hardware and software, network, as long as the operating system can be networked computer, can enjoy the service, but also provides a full range of genuine software environment, less 2, 3 days more than 5, 6 days can enter the new realm of OA application.
Second, the construction of application risk is small, operation and maintenance services convenient and quick. Contrary to the view of some people in the industry, the overall risk of cloud OA is relatively small. For the traditional software, the procurement software is the risk of procurement, facing the software application is not counterpart, the risk of poor utility. But the cloud OA basically can be paid by the month by the year, can try to use first, find unsuitable can change at any time, basically no price, compared to the traditional software one-time pay more than 100,000, hundreds of thousands of yuan, the risk is much smaller. It can be said that the product based on cloud computing architecture is an important choice to reduce the risk of information construction and reduce the cost of investment. Also, the cost of maintaining a product based on the cloud architecture is low.
Cloud OA's self-improvement ability is more powerful, product bugs, security, data backup and other problems can be given to the cloud Computing Operations Center solution. Cloud OA's unified operation and maintenance mechanism, even if an application enterprise found the product function bug, as long as the feedback to the operation center, can quickly solve. Including Ufida, strong software, Kingdee software, gold and software, such as well-known OA software provider in the form of SaaS Cloud OA application services, mostly with China Telecom, China Mobile and other telecommunications operators, its host deployment in the communications business opportunities Room, 24 hours have professionals to ensure the normal operation of the server, its stability, Safety should be higher than the self-built computer room, and have a professional data security mechanism to make the data more secure, more stable network. The key is that cloud OA can achieve seamless transition, do not worry after a few years of software lag, because the cloud OA can help enterprises free self-help upgrades.
