"The cloud is so hot now that everyone is talking about cloud computing," he said. A lot of people want to know, what is cloud computing? At the 24th issue of the CSDN CTO Music Salon yesterday afternoon, click on Technology president Zhidong to share his understanding of cloud computing to the dozens of technical managers attending.
Cloud computing is a basket, everything can be loaded into the
"It turns out that cloud computing is a basket and everything can be loaded: Users are talking about SaaS and utility Computing (public computing); engineers and academics care about virtualization, grid, distributed computing, parallel computing; As for manufacturers, look at their pockets, what's in it, what cloud computing is!" One months ago, after reading the speeches of the second cloud Computing conference, Zhidong was very sentimental, wrote in his own Sina Weibo blog. Sharon, zhidong his speech with this as a primer.
Zhidong that cloud computing is a very successful marketing concept. "Because the more defined the concept of professional precision, the narrower the market coverage, the smaller the scope, we all feel advanced." And what does the cloud have to do with computing? Because there is no relationship, gave us countless imaginary space, so a large number of experts, and even a large number of people outside the industry are talking about cloud computing, everyone according to their understanding to talk about what is the cloud, each cloud shape in the sky is different, everyone said out of the view is inconsistent, So the cloud computing hype is getting hotter. “
To explore who is true cloud and who is false cloud meaningless
Why doesn't it make sense? Zhidong explains that when a concept has just arisen, it is technically not fully matured or there is no absolute monopoly on the market, everyone can have their own opinion. Manufacturers are more concerned about whether or not to adopt cloud computing, whether the cost is lower and the business expands. And for the user, more concerned about whether your service is better than before.
Zhidong with the development of E-commerce for example, he said that E-commerce has just started, has ridiculed some companies just hanging the skin of E-commerce, is fake e-commerce, but after several years of development, those doping traditional means of e-commerce not only survive the rapid development and growth, and those so-called real e-commerce enterprises are eliminated, Eventually he got an experience, a concept, no need to discuss whether it was genuine, what really mattered was to provide valuable services.
In the ensuing dialogue, he suggested that CTO should take a utilitarian view of cloud computing technology, first to see whether cloud computing would bring tangible benefits to the company so that it would not be led by the cloud-computing service providers.
Mobile internet and cloud computing are mutually reinforcing relationships
Another technology hotspot is the mobile internet, which is consistent with the advantages promoted by cloud computing, some people think that new public platforms such as the App Store are also the manifestation of cloud computing, and many people do not know the relationship between them.
On this issue, zhidong that mobile applications have three characteristics, first, the client is basically thin. Second, because you can carry, the use of a higher probability. Third, most mobile devices can now be networked. These three-point features will make mobile applications very focused on the front and rear side of the coordination, and ultimately will lead to the need for background computing, but also the increase in the explosion. Cloud computing, as a model for building high-performance computing systems, is a very effective solution.
It is for this reason that the development of mobile applications is a good boost for cloud computing, and the development of mobile applications is driven by the ability of cloud computing to improve the ability to do a lot of background computing. But not all mobile applications are cloud applications, and whether the cloud computing technology should be based on the application of the various factors to consider.
