What is cloud computing? This is the network on-demand, dynamically adjusted computing services, the biggest feature is to make a variety of computing, storage and data services and other information technology capabilities, like water and electricity to achieve on demand supply, flexible supply. The second is to fully play the role of integration, so that decentralized information technology capabilities to achieve "team fight", greatly enhance data processing capacity and resource utilization efficiency and reduce costs.
So how does cloud computing connect with economic and social sectors? In recent years, based on the new model of cloud computing, the emergence of new industry, such as mobile Internet, E-commerce, internet finance, has strongly promoted the next generation of information technology in various fields of economic integration and innovation, accelerate the transformation of traditional industries and upgrading and mode of production change, Become an effective means to implement innovation-driven development strategy in China. Therefore, cloud computing is a new kind of industry which makes the information technology ability realize the demand supply, promotes the information technology and the data resources widespread utilization, has the important significance to the steady growth, the adjustment structure, the promotion reform, the Huiminson and the construction innovation country.
China's main internet enterprises have gradually mastered the core cloud computing technology, the main cloud computing platform computing capacity and data processing capacity has become the forefront of the world. 2014 China's public cloud services revenue is about 7 billion yuan, an increase of 47%. From the growth rate, it is much higher than the global average of 19%. Wave, Dawn, Huawei and other domestic independent cloud computing server has been more mature, with a certain international competitiveness.
Technology is mature or not, application is the best touchstone. Cloud computing has been remarkably effective in promoting mass entrepreneurship and innovation. such as Baidu Open cloud platform gathered more than 1 million developers, using Baidu Cloud computing capacity, data resources, application software, etc., the development of location navigation, audio-visual entertainment, health management, information security and other innovative applications, over the past few years, Baidu Cloud has accumulated for developers to save more than 2.5 billion yuan in research and development costs.
With optimism, the problem is the same. The development of cloud computing in our country also faces some problems: one is the misunderstanding of the government department and the other is the gap between the cloud service capability and the international leading enterprise; The third is the core key technology to be broken; four is the cloud computing standard and support system to be perfected; Cloud computing brings new challenges to information security.
