When dispel China's cloud computing development

Absrtact: The discussion of "cloud computing" has never stopped. Now, the cloud, once considered "erratic", also gradually become "tentacles", in the "cloud" under the shadow, "resources can be arbitrary access, no matter when and where, no matter what, always through some way or way to get the IT resources you want to get the required services." &http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/37954.html ">nbsp;

When can the domestic "cloud computing" field dispel? Compared with the development speed of "cloud computing" in foreign countries, the development of "cloud computing" in China seems to have slowed down half a beat. To understand this problem, we should first understand that the "cloud computing" field in China really has a broad prospects for development?

"Cloud computing" is actually a trend of information socialization, all of the domestic IT companies are moving in this direction, including from the computer room to the server rental, software leasing. Renhua, secretary general of the "cloud computing" expert committee of the China Electronic Society.

"Cloud computing" will generate 1.1 trillion of new revenue for China in 4 years, according to a recent survey published by the Internet Data Center (IDC). But in the October 2008 Symposium on the Frontiers of Science and Technology of China's Electronic society-"cloud computing", academician Li Deii of the Chinese Academy of Engineering said that "cloud computing" should not be "The Emperor's New Clothes", followed by Grid computing. The concept of "cloud computing" is tempting, but it is not just a concept, but a short-lived one.

"Cloud computing" is actually the development of the Internet with a concept, but the future development of how difficult it is now hard to predict, may be engaged in this business will preach success, but ultimately the success of a number of factors to determine whether the final success is still an unknown.

At present, the concept of things to see a little more, but also need someone to do this research. "said Wan Xiaojun, associate researcher at Peking University's Institute of Computer Science and technology. It is understood that when the concept of grid computing has just been introduced into China, our country has developed a high performance computing environment with the grid as the strategic infrastructure of High-performance computing and information services. But then because the industry does not have a clear understanding of grid computing, the existence of speculation and herd of the situation, so that grid computing does not really become the user to solve practical problems of effective means. Thus, although the "cloud computing" field is full of broad market prospects, but also to fully consider the development of its market approach and steps.

In addition to market development, the issue of data security is the future of China's "cloud computing" field development is a worrying point. These include both technical challenges and institutional challenges. Store all of your personal information in a place you can't see or touch, and who's going to make sure that our information is not lost or leaked, that the information is lost or leaked, and who will defend our rights?

There is little difference between security issues in the ' cloud computing ' area and traditional computer security. This is not to say that ' cloud computing ' itself has a special security problem, as we now use a lot of passwords, but also can be encrypted. Renhua that the security issue should not be a hindrance to the future development of cloud computing.

In addition, as "cloud computing" in China's development, the future will be derived from a number of related areas, and the lack of unified technical standards will hinder the future of our "cloud computing" development, resulting in resources can not be shared. This includes the operating system, network applications, virtualization, application software and other aspects of the unified standard.

Finally, the domestic "cloud computing" development to the early "dispel", the most important thing is to avoid the concept of demonizing, to prevent any products are labeled "cloud" concept, and correctly guide the public to the "cloud" concept of understanding, in order to avoid becoming a replica of the nano concept. "Cloud computing," the biggest problem now is that people have not enough knowledge, recognition and recognition. Renhua that universal "cloud computing" should be the current "cloud computing" development of the urgent task. According to the IT168 Network Media Research Center, "2008 China It Technology Trend survey" shows: 55.3% of enterprises are still in the "sporadic" one-sided concept of cognitive phase, 1/3 of users clearly do not understand what is "cloud computing", really understand the "cloud" users accounted for only 0.3%; The team recommends that it vendors, such as server storage vendors, large computing centers and IDC service providers, accelerate the development of "cloud computing" products and services that are suitable for use by Chinese users as soon as possible to step out of the rhetoric concept.
