The huge industry of cloud computing, the scraping and the backwardness of China

August 20, 2011, with the development of cloud computing technology, Microsoft decided to use cloud computing technology to protect Windows 8, which means that Microsoft has adopted a new anti-piracy mechanism. August 19, 2011, CNET Technology Information Network published goofy comments that: HP's market position and brand image, Hewlett-Packard if the adherence to the Web OS platform may be in the future in the tablet market occupy, but HP CEO Apotheker seems to the future to the cloud, the company's new focus on the commercial market.

What is cloud computing? Narrowly, cloud computing refers to the delivery and usage patterns of IT infrastructure, which means acquiring the required resources through the network on an as-needed and extensible basis; In a broad sense, cloud computing refers to the delivery and usage patterns of services, which means acquiring the required services on an as-needed and extensible basis over the network. This service can be it and software, Internet-related, but also other services. The core of cloud computing is the computing resources that will be based on network links, including networks, computer, storage and other hardware infrastructure, including middleware, database, applications and other software facilities unified management and scheduling, to form a shared flexible resource pool, to provide users with "on demand" information technology services. A network that provides resources is called a "cloud." The resources in the cloud can be extended indefinitely by the user, and can be obtained at any time, on demand, at any time, and paid for by use.

Cloud computing is another major change in the field of information technology and services after mainframes, PCs, and the Internet, which opens another new era in information technology and services.

Cloud computing industry is divided into three levels: cloud software, cloud platform, cloud equipment.

Cloud computing is a product of the development and integration of traditional computer and network technologies such as Grid computing, distributed computing, parallel computing, utility computing, networked storage, virtualization and load balancing. Cloud computing is often confused with grid computing, utility computing, and autonomic computing. Grid computing is a kind of distributed computing, a super virtual computer consisting of a collection of loosely coupled computers that is often used to perform large tasks; Utility computing is a packaging and billing method for IT resources, such as calculating, storing, and measuring costs separately, like conventional utilities such as electricity. Autonomous computing refers to a computer system with a self-management function. Many cloud computing deployments rely on computer clusters (but with a wide variety of grid components, systems, purposes, and working methods), and cloud computing also absorbs the characteristics of autonomic computing and utility computing.

Cloud computing distributes computing across a large number of distributed computers, not local computers or remote servers, and enterprise data centers run more like the Internet. This allows the enterprise to switch resources to the required applications and to access the computer and storage systems as needed. Cloud computing means that computing power can be used as a commodity for circulation, easy access and low cost. Cloud computing is transmitted over the Internet.

Cloud computing includes several levels of service: infrastructure-level services (IaaS, where consumers can get services from a sophisticated computer infrastructure via the Internet), platform-level services (PaaS, a platform for software development as a service) and software-level services (SaaS, Users do not need to buy software but lease web-based software to the provider to manage their business activities over the Internet. Cloud computing services typically provide common, online business applications that are accessed via browsers, and software and data can be stored in data centers.

Cloud computing operating system, also known as the Cloud Computing Center OS, Cloud OS, is the cloud computing background data center of the overall management of the operating systems, refers to the server, storage, network and other basic hardware resources and stand-alone operating system, middleware, database and other basic software management of the vast number of basic hardware, Cloud Platform Integrated management system on soft resources. Cloud computing operating system includes the following modules: Large-scale basic software and hardware management, virtual computing management, Distributed File system, business/resource scheduling management, security management control and other modules. The cloud computing operating system has three functions: first, the governance of many such as governance, can manage and drive mass server, storage and other basic hardware, a data center of the hardware resources logically integrated into a server; second, the cloud application software to provide a unified, standard interface; Third, manage massive computing tasks and provisioning.

The cloud computing system is a key step towards cloud computing. From the front end, cloud computing users can access resources on demand through the network, and according to the use of the amount paid, access is used; from the backstage, cloud computing can achieve a variety of heterogeneous hardware and software basic resources compatible, more able to achieve the dynamic flow of resources, such as the east to west and East gas transmission

The idea of cloud security is that the more users there are, the more secure each user is, because such a large group of users is enough to cover every corner of the internet, as long as a site is hung or a new Trojan virus appears, it will be intercepted immediately.

With the increase of IoT business, the demand for data storage and computation will bring about the requirement of "cloud computing": First, Cloud computing. From the computing Centre to the data center in the early phase of the Internet of things, pop can meet demand; second, in the advanced stage of the Internet of things, there may be mvno/mmo operators, the need for virtualization cloud computing technology, SOA and other technologies in conjunction with the implementation of the pan-Internet services: Taas.

Cloud Marketing, in the narrow sense is to help customers sell products, the rapid establishment of national marketing channels, access to economic benefits, the broad sense is to establish a corporate brand image, access to greater social resources.

Cloud computing and education: first, distance classroom; second, student training television station; third, television broadcasts.

Cloud Computing provides a solution to the problem of mobile medical information sharing, helping telecom operators achieve greater value in the mobile healthcare industry. Experts believe that the future integration of regional medical information platform is the trend, based on cloud computing regional Health information platform will promote the pace of integration.

Cloud computing is widely used, but the cloud computing industry is huge.

Google's "cloud computing" stems from Google engineer Christopher Bisilia's "Google 101" project. August 9, 2006--Eric Schmidt, Google's chief executive, first presented the concept of "cloud computing" at a search engine conference.

In December 2009, China's cloud computing technology and Industry Alliance was set up in Beijing, with more than 40 companies jointly advocating the establishment of China's cloud computing technology and Industry Alliance.

The first China cloud computing technology and application Conference, jointly hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Press and publication Administration (copyright administration), the China Council for the promotion of international trade and the Jiangsu Provincial People's government, is the seventh China (Nanjing) International Software Products Exposition in 2011. will be held in September 2011 from 6 to 8th at the Jinling Convention Center of Nanjing International Expo Center in China. In addition to the Chinese Academy of Engineering NI will visit the conference, many leading companies have decided to participate in the cloud, including: Taobao, Baidu, NetEase, IBM, Wave, France Capgemini, ZTE, cloud storage and so on. At the same time, many universities and scientific research institutions will also attend, including China Software Evaluation Center, Nanjing University, PLA University of Technology, Guangdong Electronic Industry Research Institute.

Cloud computing is a cash cow for the future IT industry: May 26, 2011, a senior ZTE executive said the company aims to double the revenue from cloud computing sales to more than $4 billion trillion in 2012; a huge cloud meeting with more than 8.2 billion dollars is on the market. 2010 Yuhua Software Park Cloud computing output value has exceeded 1 billion yuan; The national mobile phone most main production place of Guangdong province Huizhou proposed "Hui Yun" plan, proposed to form the cloud computing 10 billion yuan industry scale, led the industrial chain to form 35 billion yuan output value Guangdong Province Shenzhen Cloud computing and Research Alliance was formally established on August 3, 2011, is expected in the next 3-5 years, the alliance will drive the cloud computing industry-related output value of more than 100 billion yuan, the development of public sector, the Internet, small and medium enterprises, industry cloud computing solutions and services August 2010 Shanghai announced the cloud computing development strategy, in 3 years cloud computing will add 100 billion yuan in the service industry revenue for Shanghai, promotes the hundred software and the Information Service industry Enterprise transformation, cultivates 10 annual income ultra billion the leading enterprise and 10 cloud computing demonstration platform, Shanghai's goal is clear: to build the Asia-Pacific region's cloud computing center; cloud Computing has been listed as a breakthrough in Beijing's strategic emerging industries, the Beijing Municipal Commission released the "Xiangyun Project" action plan, proposed in 2015 to make "cloud computing" three types of services-infrastructure services, platform services and software services formed 50 billion yuan industrial scale, which led to the formation of cloud computing industry chain 200 billion yuan output value; October 22, 2010, the Ministry of Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission issued a joint announcement clear, in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Wuxi and other five cities first to carry out cloud computing services innovation and development pilot demonstration work. Insiders said that in the Ministry of Industry and the National Development and Reform Commission of the joint push, cloud computing in China's market size is expected to break through 1 trillion yuan in 3 years, the industrial chain downstream of a number of listed companies will usher in development opportunities.

All countries in the world in the cloud computing industry to build core competitiveness and competitive advantage.

August 15, 2011, Google announced that it will buy Motorola mobile 12.5 billion dollars. That means Apple, Google, and Microsoft's three giants kill the cloud. In the case of different hardware specifications, the overall platform of mobile phone competition, especially cloud computing as the center of the next generation of mobile phone platform, will be related to Apple, Google, Microsoft three Giants in the future success or failure.

Google has been a major catalyst for the world's cloud computing industry--a space for Android and cloud computing--and in 2011 Apple unveiled a high-profile icloud cloud computing platform at the WWDC conference to integrate Apple's existing terminals with cloud computing platforms, and has the convenient on-line automatic synchronization function; Microsoft has a deep accumulation of cloud computing, but the slow pace of Microsoft's moves on smartphones and tablets makes Microsoft's future fraught with uncertainty.

In cloud computing, the importance of terminals is becoming more and more important-whether Apple or Google, is ready to be built into its own terminal cloud computing services synchronized solution. Kong Huawei, director of the Shanghai Zhongke Computing Technology Institute, said that the ultimate inspiration for Chinese manufacturers of the smartphone war was that the lack of a cloud computing platform would probably only be a tool for the Giants ' jobs. In stark contrast, Apple, Google and Microsoft have been making greater strategic gains through the construction of the platform ecosystem.

In the cloud computing industry, especially in the mobile-phone cloud computing platform, China lags behind the US.
