The Chinese opportunity of cloud computing it enterprises grasp the hand of the cloud tightly

Absrtact: Cloud computing has changed from a new friend to a familiar friend. The latest forecast by IDC, a market research firm, is that global cloud computing servers will be worth $9.4 billion trillion in 2015. As an emerging industry, cloud computing is a representative of the third it wave after personal computers and the Internet, as it will bring fundamental changes to human life, production patterns and business models.

Companies should be the most powerful catalyst for future cloud computing. The emergence and development of more types of cloud operators with sustainable business models is a decisive factor in the development of China's cloud computing market.

In China, IT companies have almost always won by localized services, with few Chinese companies with core technology and innovative awareness. The advent of cloud computing can be said to bring unprecedented potential opportunities for China's IT companies, for the following 5 points.

Cloud computing "No hardware" concept: Make the brand server and PC no longer important, background hardware with DIY can, their own maintenance, client PC requirements are not high (running the browser's netbook).

The "no Software" concept of cloud computing: Making brand-packaged software no longer important, people no longer need to buy windows software in batches (client browsers are enough), and no longer worry about piracy (or piracy); server-side databases, software and middleware only need one (multi-tenant model) That's enough (because Open-source software and middleware are maturing, this money may also be omitted); We have the ability and the manpower to maintain the server-side system.

The world's largest telecommunications operator: The Chinese mobile, China Telecom, with its client resource advantage, has the potential to become a large cloud computing operator, with large data centers and not all operating on a 7x24-hour basis, which can be packaged into cloud computing virtual machines and services for users with their idle computing resources.

Operation is our strength: in fact, the operating model is the strength of Chinese enterprises, the previous article summed up, Baidu defeated Google, Alibaba drove off the ebay, Sina, Sohu, NetEase drove away the Yahoo, and Shanda, the giant's business than abroad to do well, and so on, these advantages can be passed to the cloud.

Operation mode helps to grasp the core technology: based on the first "No Software" concept, enterprises can better digest and absorb foreign systems, especially software technology, to establish a long-term accumulation mechanism (which is most of the domestic it enterprises are not good at it), the full realization of its own, Do not have to go with the foreign enterprises brand-branded product sales (but also domestic enterprises are not good at); like Amazon's AWS, outsiders have no idea how it's done, nor do they have to sell it, just provide APIs.

Alibaba's SaaS platform is based on Microsoft. NET technology, probably because the general manager is Microsoft origin, at that time Microsoft's PAAs technology is immature, and also because Alibaba is too early to hold high dozen, more momentum than hard work, it can be said that the SaaS platform Ali Software is not true based on multi-tenancy Technology SaaS, nor PAAs, can only count a variety of miscellaneous items piled up "fair". This coincides with Alibaba's tradition that they are typical business companies, not technology companies. This mode of operation, to the end of the precipitation of what technology. In fact, Alibaba has very good resources and strength, if according to Salesforce mode, oneself develop a set of platform, start from small place, steady dozen steady, Vitalize, will certainly have harvest, can even overtake Salesforce or Amazon.

Alibaba software Interconnection (SaaS) platform was officially run at the end of 2007 and began to promote the country, once planned to invest 1 billion yuan. July 2008 Ali Software Management said: "5 years later, China's SaaS market will be larger than the traditional software market." However, by March 2010, Alibaba issued a notice: will be on April 30, 2010 to close the Ali software interconnection platform and terminate the provision of related services, Alibaba's first attempt to cloud computing failed, this may be Alibaba's first big mistake.
