Ten challenges for enterprises to apply cloud computing fully

Manufacturers to promote the need for more targeted, in fact, http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/8150.html "> Traditional industries need to rely on cloud computing to promote development, more non-critical applications deployed to the cloud, Businesses need to use cloud computing to serve their end customers ... After one months of interviews, the reporter from different industries in the CIO heard a variety of cloud expectations, concerns, manufacturers of affirmation, dissatisfaction, the enterprise application of the vision, confusion. Cloud computing makes more business users feel sad when they are happy.





before this topic, the reporter always thought the finance, the telecommunication, the medical care and so on big industry cloud landing the pace will be earlier, to the cloud attitude will also be more positive. And in with such as China New cement, building electronics such as manufacturing exchanges, only to find that the current traditional areas of Yu Yun demand is more urgent. Cloud computing in China's enterprises, more is the opportunity for change and the beginning. And the "cloud" of the pace is far from what we expect so fast, cloud computing in many areas to play a role in the real service to China's business users, but also face a number of challenges.





in the manufacturing, medical education, financial telecommunications users of the communication, but also found that most CIOs from the initial understanding or exclusion of cloud computing, to start research, planning their corporate cloud. The attitude towards the cloud also presents a different situation in different fields.





1, the traditional manufacturing industry looks forward to cloud computing. China's traditional manufacturing industry, with many areas of it as the core competitiveness of the different, in the manufacturing industry it is still a promotional tool. For it, the manufacturing industry would prefer to outsource the corresponding non-critical business in order to reduce the cost of human resources. Mature, secure cloud computing is what many manufacturing users expect.





2, the wait-and-see cloud stems from distrust. Security, cost, late service, these are the concerns of users, for the manufacturers currently provide solutions to the practicality of the distrust, still make many users in the wait-and-see state.





3, the details of the application of gradual evolution. In the interview, also found that some enterprises began to have relevant cloud applications, such as the Kyushu real-time communication system, HNA's desktop cloud. For the deployment of cloud computing, enterprise users still choose to deploy the non-critical business cloud first, gradually evolve.





4. Cloud computing becomes competitive. Huang, the CIO of the days of investment, has put forward the concept of universal cloud of financial knowledge, and let us see many industries will cloud computing as the core competitiveness of future enterprises. In the field of telecommunications, this phenomenon is particularly obvious, based on the concept of cloud development of more products and services, rapid access to markets, enhance competitiveness.





no matter at which stage, or because the user's own understanding of the difference, or the manufacturer propaganda one-sidedness, the current Chinese enterprises "cloud" is far from complete. According to the user's interview, we also found that the popularity of cloud computing in China is still faced with numerous or ideas, or technology, or industry at all levels of challenges.





1, enterprise economic benefits are not obvious. At present, major IT vendors actively promote their own cloud computing concepts, as well as related products and solutions. And for enterprises, especially in the private cloud, it is difficult to see from these publicity directly to the economic benefits of enterprises, more to see the sales of technical products.





2, lack of industry guidance. Interviews with many industry users will find that each area of cloud computing will have different needs, the focus will vary. Industry cloud will be a direction, but the current cloud related products and solutions are lack of industry cases.





3, simple and easy to use is just a slogan. There is a CIO example of a cloud computing application, pointing out that its deployment is difficult. The idea of the cloud is simplicity, simplicity, and many cloud computing solutions have increased the user's difficulty in the early deployment of applications. The user experience still needs to be valued.





4, the invisible cost is increasing. How to protect the original enterprise investment, users will often throw to the manufacturer of the problem. Building a private cloud, how to smooth with the original it, economic transition to the lowest cost to achieve the highest efficiency, is the concern of enterprises, but also manufacturers can not perfect solution.





5, the standardization of the future is not clear. A perfect cloud cannot be done by a single vendor, and standardization among many vendors reduces the complexity of later deployment upgrades and is what enterprise users now expect to see.





6, lacks the corresponding responsibility mechanism. For previously mentioned security issues, more users think this is always a pseudo proposition. But what users are most concerned about is how the problem divides responsibility. Regarding the cloud computing service related responsibility, the duty, at present also lacks the corresponding system stipulation, the related contract also lacks each kind of detail.





7, the user also lacks the unified understanding. Enterprise-class cloud computing, some users will be considered a major industry expertise, or the goal of large enterprises, many users of China's cloud computing also does not have a unified understanding. Some cling to a technological innovation rather than a strategic adjustment.





8, restricted to all-inclusive cloud. When considering cloud computing, many users will think that only all-inclusive cloud is cloud computing, the fact that enterprises only need to use the cloud of ideas and key technologies to promote business development, without having to meet all the characteristics of the cloud, the application is the ultimate goal.





9, the enterprise IT construction lacks the system plan. Many of the enterprise's it construction or stay in the phased planning, cloud computing or the need to rationally judge the future of the business, it direction, which also requires the enterprise's it construction more macroscopic, more systematic.





10, the CIO's responsibilities are facing transformation. It has been suggested that China does not have a real CIO, or because of the CIO's responsibilities or corporate positioning. The era of cloud computing requires CIOs to be real CIOs. This may also be a chance for the Chinese CIO to be transformed by cloud computing.
