Cloud computing market, a distance, a thriving event.
However, in the rapidly growing popularity of cloud computing moment, giants and big business peacefulness, Tuibeihuanzhan, while the number of SMEs had to face the difficult problem of cloud computing by agents.
Cloud Computing and SME management
I do not know what is cloud computing
While the concept of cloud computing popular for many years, and have a lot of precipitation, but for many SME managers, this concept is still in the water, Flower in the Mirror. Coupled with the concept of cloud computing development from before birth to the scientific community has long been regarded as "proper noun" because the IT sector, the "cloud computing" concept a little too "tall on." As the author of a friend doing business says: I know there are underground treasures, but I'm still looking for my Luoyang shovel.
I do not know how to use cloud computing
"Our products in the data backup service than traditional backup methods for companies to reduce the cost of at least 60% or more, but only if you have to tell the user how to use our products," Wood Wave Technology CMO Li Shuo said half-jokingly. In the current rapid development of cloud computing, SMEs should theoretically be the biggest beneficiary, because they are more "light" and easier to make a change, but the actual situation is that many SMEs because no relevant basis for calculating and cognitive based in the cloud but more slowly accepting the above calculation. "Before cloud computing more user education at the technical level, while ignoring the closest to the user's specific application," Li Shuo once again stressed the importance of SMEs user education.
Cloud Computing and SME management
So, now the question is, how to make cloud computing for SMEs for their own use?
Companies want to achieve clarity of purpose
Cloud computing is not just words as simple as it is divided into infrastructure as a service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) three levels of service. Each layer covering the contents of many, and there are a lot of segments, such as multi-enterprise data backup is to do a backup management, seven cattle is to do storage, Ali cloud is to do so on the basis of the underlying applications, where multiple backup SaaS layer again include more specific breakdown of data archiving, data recovery, email backup, so before use, business decision-makers must be clear what I hope to achieve the goal is.
Good cost comparison
Cloud computing services for SMEs, appears to be the latest concepts to relatively weak, relatively small investment in the target group, it seems that the gap is large, but this application is a very good combination. Because all of the cloud the meaning of existence is to reduce the cost, which is very relevant selection and SMEs. But even so, it needs to do the cost comparison, new things will not necessarily overcome the old stuff, but will overcome the high cost low. For example, we said above example: Since more backup data can be backed up on the high cost of business, so why not use it?
Security issues
When it comes to cloud computing, we must talk about safety issues when it comes to complete problem that many people would mention Ronald L. Rivest of those remarks, "Perhaps we called it the cloud itself is a mistake, because this name is very easy to make people feel fun and safe. but in fact, the network is full of threats and sinister, if we had to call it swamp computing (Swamp Computing) may be more able to let people have a correct understanding of it. "at this point, the small companies need to do two things, first is the security of the data center network, and the second is the security of the servers. Cloud computing security is a need to focus on, and it takes a great effort of important areas.
Relative to large enterprises, SMEs have inherent advantages. In the face of the opportunities brought by cloud computing, SMEs can also be combined with its own characteristics of cloud computing development tour to catch the express train. Why not try it?
