What cloud storage services should the enterprise choose?

Today, more and more enterprises are starting to adopt the basic cloud storage services, which has many advantages: high scalability, flexibility, good performance, lower cost, improved reliability, easy management, but I found that there are many entrepreneurs they do not have a clear understanding of the concept of cloud, What kind of scenario is best for using cloud storage services is a topic of concern. Today, I saw an article on InfoWorld--"When you should put great data in the cloud," which mentions several scenarios where data should be explicitly stored in the cloud, and the fourth scenario is one of the most important things I see for most Internet companies.

Many enterprise applications have been used in the cloud. In particular, small and medium-sized enterprises, which themselves use cloud-based applications provided by some third parties, the cloud has accumulated a considerable amount of data, rather than put them to the local service, it is better to directly import them into a Third-party data analysis platform for related data analysis, optimization, backup and storage, which is more convenient.

There are a large number of external data sources that require a considerable amount of preprocessing. For some enterprises, they need to collect a variety of data to do survey and analysis reports, but these data redundancy and volume are very large, enterprises in the use of their data need to do a lot of processing. But using a local server for storage consumes a lot of traffic and bandwidth. So it's a good idea to use cloud services to store and process the data and then place it in the local area.

The data must be distributed and processed. Some businesses need data centers that are not one, but many, such as transportation systems, meteorological systems, geographic information services, and so on, so they need distributed data collection and collection. In this way, it is necessary to set up data centers in many places, the cost of housing and other requirements are relatively high. But using public cloud, Third-party servers can help you achieve distributed collection and processing, but also greatly reduce costs.

A project with high elasticity demand. I often encounter entrepreneurs complain about the server problem, in the early days of business, you have no accurate judgment on the flow of products, the server to buy less than enough to buy more and waste. More importantly, many times only in a very short period of time will be faced with huge traffic, such as electric dealer discount promotions, such as the time of the night of the Mo, and in peacetime these server resources are actually wasted. and flexible cloud services just can solve this-when you need to expand storage space, can apply for server upgrades at any time, even in the promotion, you can apply for more advanced services to pay separately, after the two days after the promotion, return to the usual mode of service. It is also suitable for short-term projects.

In fact, China's basic cloud services can be said to have landed, from some of the better reputation of the entrepreneurial cloud service providers-and the cloud storage, seven Neu Yun storage, Ucloud cloud computing services to Tencent, Alibaba, Several PAAs and IaaS services have been launched by these giants (Jinshan will also be launched in the near future to launch a cloud service for businesses and developers). Pingwest has already reported the Tencent Cloud, and then we will read the cloud services (not just cloud storage) to provide an effective reference for businesses and entrepreneurs.
