Three major features of China's public cloud computing 2014 $1 billion

Core tip: As government and telecoms operators invest in cloud computing over the next few years, IDC expects the cloud services market to grow at a rapid rate of nearly 40% a year, up from $1 billion trillion by 2014.

China IDC Circle June 15: According to IDC's latest report on China's cloud computing market, 2010 China's cloud computing services market size has reached 320 million U.S. dollars. More than 60% of the market is from the application software that is the service (AaaS) market contribution, mainly including the software vendors through the cloud way to provide SMEs with online finance, enterprise management and collaboration applications.

Driven by user needs, the 2010 public cloud computing service providers have developed significantly. 周震刚, China's research manager for cloud computing in China, says the Chinese public cloud computing market presents several notable features:

First, the way China's public cloud computing has become more diversified in the 2010.

More companies are starting to move into the business of public cloud computing. Among them, the Internet enterprises have a wide range of customer base, telecom value-added service providers and Internet data centers have the advantage of infrastructure, the Government computing Center has strong government funding support, while the telecom operators fully grasp the network access level of resources. Various types of suppliers not only carry out fierce competition, but also strengthen cooperation, through complementary advantages to improve their operational capabilities. In addition, multinational IT companies that have advanced technology and operational experience in cloud computing operations have also increased their investment in the Chinese cloud computing market and have cooperated with these types of enterprises.

Second, more government-led public cloud computing projects began to be implemented.

In these projects, the concept of urban cloud is more and more mentioned. IDC has observed that more cities are planning to build a city-wide cloud computing center that covers the city. This kind of cloud computing center will mainly provide computing resources for Government IT application systems. Therefore, the emergence of urban clouds, on the one hand, will encourage local governments to build more coverage, more performance of the cloud Computing Center, on the other hand will attract more software vendors to migrate software to the cloud platform. At the same time, the city cloud will be linked to the internet of things, creating more opportunities. The city-level cloud computing center will be the core of the Internet of things, focusing on the data obtained from each sensor terminal.

Finally, telecom operators began to enter the field of public cloud computing, and will greatly affect the public cloud computing market competition pattern.

In the 2010, the three major operators of cloud computing as the focus of business development, have drawn up the next few years of cloud computing implementation plan. IDC expects 2011 major telecom operators to launch some specific cloud services applications. This type of application is formed by the cooperation of telecom operators with software and service vendors at home and abroad, through the deployment of partners ' products (such as SaaS Software) through its own IT infrastructure, and then sharing benefits with partners in a split way. The strong involvement of telecom operators in cloud computing will also break the original IT business model and gradually build new ecosystems.

With government departments and telecoms operators increasingly investing in cloud computing over the next few years, IDC expects the cloud services market to grow at a rapid rate of nearly 40% a year, up from $1 billion trillion by 2014. In the next few years, the infrastructure, the service (IaaS) market will become a hot spot, not only for telecom operators and business data centers to transform the data center hosting business into infrastructure, services (IAAS), the infrastructure software market provided in cloud mode (e.g. system management software, storage management software, etc.) will also get high growth.
