It is a new way of resource utilization on the Internet, which allows massive users to calculate on demand by relying on heterogeneous and autonomous services on the Internet. Because resources are on the Internet, and in the computer flow chart, the Internet is often represented by a cloud model, so it can be vividly compared to cloud computing, and' cloud' is also an abstract concept of the underlying infrastructure.
What do Trend Micro, Academia Sinica, IBM and Google say is cloud service?
This press release was issued in May 2009.
Youyi technical service team believes that cloud computing services with valuable propositions have arrived, and enterprises can make effective use of external resources while trying to think about and formulate appropriate implementation plans. Now, Salesforce.com's mature and concrete cloud services can help enterprises achieve three key performance goals: 1. Optimize business performance. 2. Reduce expenditure on information technology. 3. Provide self-service and have greater production competitiveness in the existing resources.
I attended the forum hosted by Trend Micro this afternoon, standing in the clouds and reversing the trend in far eastern hotel. The subtitle of the activity is: reduce the investment in enterprise information architecture and maximize cloud computing resources.
The organizer invited Professor Lu Xipeng, Professor of Information Management Department of Taiwan Province University of Science and Technology and Dean of Honorary College, as the keynote speaker. As soon as Professor Lu Xipeng came to power, he said loudly: Those who believe in clouds will live forever. This has developed from a personal desktop computer to a mobile notebook computer, and then to a cloud computing service that allows you to use it on demand anytime, anywhere.
And mentioned: 10 years ago, Bill Gates said that he had a dream, that is, to put all Microsoft software on the network, and users can use it at any time as long as they have a set of user names and passwords. That is the key topic to be discussed today ~ cloud service.
In addition, Professor Lu Xipeng also threw two questions to the enterprise:
1. What kind of cloud computing will be introduced first?
2. Where are the criteria for evaluating cloud service applications?
Mr. Zhang Mingzheng, the organizer of Trend Micro, immediately shared the most important thing of Trend Micro in the past three years: developing the cloud service of Trend Micro in information security.
Mr. Zhang Mingzheng mentioned that with the expansion of the original information and communication infrastructure and the increasingly complex virus threat, this is not only a trend problem, but also a problem for everyone. In the past three years, Trend Micro has invested a lot of tangible and intangible resources to build its own cloud service. In a few short slides, he mentioned twice that Salesforce.com is a model representative of cloud computing services.
Taking his current Ruoshui Foundation as an example, he shared how a startup company can enjoy an information technology operation support environment that was difficult to build in the past with the help of cloud computing services with a little budget investment. At the same time, look at cloud services from the trend, as he said: cloud services are services of the Internet. And declared that this year (2009) is the first year of cloud computing services.
Dr. Lin Chengqian from the Grid Research Center of Academia Sinica took the stage to share cloud computing from the perspective of grid computing, and also shared the achievements of the Grid Computing Center of Academia Sinica in grid computing. In addition, Dr. Lin Chengqian also mentioned that there are far more similarities than differences between the two.
Ma, an associate professor at IBM Bioinformatics Center, also introduced IBM's blue cloud computing at the meeting. He mentioned IBM's point of view, since the advent of the Internet, from the Internet to the Web；; From network to cloud. With the development of the new economy, now is the era of service-oriented economy. How to provide flexible services and how to do it: simple use, innovative applications and a large number of services are all important issues.
After a brief self-introduction, Ye Ping, the head of Google Cloud Computing, immediately asked everyone: What do you think of seeing the cloud?
He shared many interesting responses from Plurk, such as the Monkey King, the title of a movie, the title of a song, the title of a poem and so on.
Ye Ping thought: I asked your student under a pine tree, "My teacher," he replied, "went to collect medicine," but in which corner of the mountain, how can I tell through all these clouds? . It can best convey the artistic conception of cloud services.
After listening to others' words, Ye Ping shared Google's definition of cloud and cloud computing as follows:
1. Cloud = Internet
2. Cloud computing) = The required application software and data are all on the Internet, which can be obtained through the browser on any device. (Applications and data are in the cloud and can be accessed by any device connected to the cloud through a browser. )
Ye Ping also mentioned that cloud services are not what they said before: they can see, but they can't eat. Cloud services are the other way around, so you can't see them. The point is: you can eat it.
Friendship technical service team believes that:
Cloud computing services with valuable propositions have arrived, and enterprises can make effective use of external resources while trying to think about and draw up appropriate implementation plans.
Now, Salesforce.com's mature and specific cloud services can help enterprises achieve three key performance goals:
1. Optimize business performance.
2. Reduce expenditure on information technology.
3. Provide self-service and have greater production competitiveness in the existing resources.
