What were the five "most" important events in the cloud computing market in the first half of 2018?

In the first half of 2018, there are five “most” in the cloud computing market. Let's talk about the big and small things you care about in the cloud computing circle in the first half of 2018.

The "strongest" winning bid

The decline of government cloud and CDN targets for Internet cloud service providers

Speaking of cloud computing wins, the biggest win in cloud computing is the recent 217 million bid for China Telecom's "State Administration of Taxation Cloud Platform Expansion Project." 217 million can be said to be a "rich order" in cloud computing, but careful observation will reveal that most of the large purchases of the IRS are servers, network switches and other hardware equipment, and no specific cloud computing services are involved. Implementation of software services.

Netizens commented that "this standard doesn't tell you much, China Telecom is just taking an account." Why didn't the IRS choose a cloud computing service provider for the cloud platform expansion project, or directly find a server equipment manufacturer to take this account, but let China What about telecommunications?

Another influential "winning bid" project still has the name "China Telecom". On June 21, the Government Procurement Center of the central state agency released the central state agency's 2018 agreement to supply cloud computing service products (through cybersecurity Review) The project transaction announcement, three manufacturers were shortlisted, namely Huawei and Inspur, and the other was China Telecom. No Internet cloud service provider was selected.

During the summer vacation, China Mobile Migu Video won the right to broadcast the World Cup. Migu Video’s choice of cloud computing service providers is also worthy of intrigue. In the final result of the “2018 Migu Video Public Cloud Procurement Project Comparison Announcement”, HUAWEI CLOUD took the first place in Tencent Cloud and Alibaba Cloud and won the project.

In the previous announcement of the results of the "Migu Video CDN Accelerated Service Procurement in 2018", the traditional CDN service provider Wangsu Technology beat Baishan Cloud, Tencent Cloud, and Alibaba Cloud to win the first place with the highest price. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. After the emergence of Internet service providers, traditional CDN vendors were once in a bad mood. However, Wangsu Technology's first result may be a boost to traditional CDN vendors.

Of course, in the first half of 2018, as a whole, Internet cloud service providers are also gaining a lot of "standards". For example, Alibaba Cloud won the bid for Jincheng big data platform construction project with 60 million yuan, Baidu Cloud won the bid for Yinchuan static traffic management system construction, and Tencent Cloud Won the bid of Shanghai Jiaotong University's public infrastructure service facility cloud computing platform project, etc.

The most "red" cooperation

Strengthen the relationship between competition and cooperation, win the overall ecological situation

Recently, the Xiaomi IPO has made the cloud computing circle concerned about the cloud service providers used by Xiaomi and found that Xiaomi not only uses the cloud services of Xiaomi’s Kingsoft Cloud, but also uses Microsoft Azure as the second cloud service provider in China, and in foreign countries , Xiaomi uses the cloud computing service of Amazon AWS.

From the perspective of Kingsoft Cloud, Microsoft Azure and Amazon AWS are both its cloud computing competitors, and it can also be said that they are indirect competitors of Xiaomi. Xiaomi is using Xiaomi's cloud services while also using cloud services from other vendors, which seems a bit difficult to understand. But when we look at the ecology of the entire cooperation in the cloud computing market, these problems are all solved.

The various cooperations in the field of cloud computing in the first half of 2018 just responded to this topic's judgment on the relationship between competition and cooperation. Take Unicom’s mixed reform as an example. In mid-August last year, China Unicom announced the final plan for the mixed reform. Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu, and JD.com have all invested in China Unicom. In the following six months, the mixed reform has gradually shown its effectiveness and the four parties’ cooperation has gradually deepened.

In April this year, at the first Digital China Construction Summit, Lu Yimin, general manager of China Unicom Group, stated that China Unicom and Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Baidu Cloud and other strategic partners have achieved horizontal penetration, mutual integration, and multi-cloud integration. On the competition track of cloud computing, the competition among three Internet cloud service providers, Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud, and Baidu Cloud, is blazingly hot, but on a platform like China Unicom, the three parties have achieved a common goal.

After 360's return to A shares, the enterprise-level security field has made new moves in the first half of 2018, and it has launched a full range of technical cooperation with VMware in the field of cloud computing and virtualization. On the other hand, VMware has also implemented a VCPP hybrid cloud solution with Huayun, which also proves the continuous expansion of VMware's cloud computing strategy in China.

In addition, there is the cooperation between Lingqueyun and Zhongke Software in PaaS solutions, the cooperation between China Academy of Information and Communications Technology and Tencent on open source, cloud network, Youpaiyun, and Dilian Network announced resources in CDN, IPv6, edge computing, etc. shared.

The most "ho" investment and financing

Expansion of wings, cloud computing's "money-throwing" merits

There have also been several incidents of concern in strategic investment and financing. The largest amount of money announced was the announcement of Tsinghua Unigroup’s 12 billion yuan entry into the public cloud. On the eve of press time, Tsinghua Unigroup just announced the launch of the public cloud for trial, which can be said to be a heavyweight player in the public cloud field that has been late.

Tencent's 1.266 billion strategic investment in Donghua Software, 300 million transferred 2.24% of Changshan Beiming, 400 million won 7.14% of Changliang Technology, and another 1 billion was used to invest in Tencent Cloud (Chongqing) Industrial Internet Intelligent Supercomputing Center Landing.

Kingsoft Cloud received US$200 million in financing led by its parent company Kingsoft Software in January this year. Together with the three equity subscriptions completed last year, it received a total of US$720 million in financing, totaling approximately RMB 4.8 billion. However, in the field of cloud computing that burns money, the nearly 5 billion funds are not much. In July of this year, Kingsoft Cloud announced that it would spend 1.8 billion to fully build the largest cloud computing core node data center in the north, which has already spent nearly half.

On the other hand, Huayun, which claims to have all-cloud capabilities, received a strategic investment of RMB 1 billion from GF Securities and Tsinghua Holdings Fund in June this year. According to Xu Guangbin, chairman and president of Huayun Data Group, the financing is The last round of financing before the company's IPO.

UCloud, which has always said that it is a neutral cloud computing vendor, really does not have a team BAT. On June 29, it announced that it had accepted the E round investment of China Mobile Investment Corporation. It will jointly carry out research on cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, edge computing, 5G and other new technologies. , Development and standard setting work.

The fate of PaaS vendors was not very good in the first half of 2018. BoCloud is committed to PaaS R&D and joined the JD Cloud camp. On June 26, it announced the acceptance of strategic investment from JD Cloud and JD Finance. Established in 2014, the PaaS platform Shurenyun, announced in April this year the merger of Ucloud's private cloud platform UMcloud.

In addition, we can also pay attention to financing, open source cloud computing vendor EasyStack C+ round 300 million financing, Baishan Cloud 240 million C+ round financing, Qingteng Cloud Security financing 200 million yuan B round, and Qingyuan Technology 50 million yuan A round Wait.

The most "big" fault

Failure is small, business is big, or cloud computing is more secure?

Although cloud security is the industry's most concerned issue, and cloud service providers have shown their muscles over and over again in cloud security, failures are still impossible to prevent.

On June 27th, Alibaba Cloud had problems accessing the Alibaba Cloud official website console and using some product functions due to operational and maintenance errors. Alibaba Cloud officially stated in the statement that the fault was caused by human causes. When the new function was launched, it triggered an unknown code bug. The error code disabled some internal IPs, causing some products to access links. Fortunately, this failure of Alibaba Cloud did not affect the customer's business.

In the recent World Cup, there was also a big "fault" Oolong. On the first day of the World Cup, the Migu Video, which was awarded the exclusive right to broadcast the World Cup, was complained by fans due to the extremely low quality of the live broadcast. As the underlying technical support of Migu Video, Huawei Cloud laid the gun. Later test results showed that the problem did not lie with Huawei Cloud, but because a network device in China Mobile’s video base failed. HUAWEI CLOUD was so innocent.

Looking at these failures in the first half of 2018, Meituan's catering system, Didi food delivery system, WeChat official account backend, etc. have all experienced failures of varying degrees, and the level of failure can be tolerated.

According to industry insiders, the self-built cloud computing environment of enterprises is subject to technical, human, and financial constraints, and the security is open to question. Instead, it is safer to hand over the business to a third-party cloud computing service provider, whether it is fault response or technical maturity, the third-party service provider is more professional.

The most "hot" technology

Blockchain, SD-WAN, IPv6, edge computing

Compared with last year's artificial intelligence, in the first half of 2018, major cloud service providers have made new moves in other technologies, such as blockchain, SD-WAN, IPv6, edge computing, etc.

Since the application of blockchain in cloud computing is not clear yet, there are not many products developed by cloud computing service providers in combination with blockchain. Many cloud service providers are waiting and watching the application scenarios of blockchain. Currently, relevant applications are mainly launched Some large cloud computing vendors, such as Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud, have applied blockchain in the supply chain field, Huawei Cloud has applied blockchain in the catering field, and Kingsoft Cloud has applied the technology in the game field. In the financial field, the financial cloud industry cloud manufacturer Industrial Data Financial and IBM jointly released the "Yitianjian" blockchain electronic contract SaaS cloud service platform on June 28.

The biggest move in the SD-WAN field this year is the "world's first hybrid cloud + SDN dedicated line integration" product launched in April by open source cloud computing vendor ZStack and network service provider Dahe Yunlian. In June, it was reported that Huawei and InfoVista would cooperate on SD-WAN. With the development of cloud computing, software-defined networks will become more and more common. Although SD-WAN technology can be provided by professional network service providers, in the future, cloud computing vendors will incorporate SD-WAN into their ecosystem as a value-added service Providing it to customers is also a smart decision.

With regard to IPv6 technology, academician Wu Hequan, an expert on my country's optical fiber transmission network and broadband information network, has been rushing for a long time. He appeared at the Alibaba Cloud IPv6 conference and recently emphasized IPv6 technology at the China Internet Conference. my country is the country that lacks the most addresses, and IPv6 is a technology that claims to be able to compile a web address for every grain of sand in the world.

Following cloud computing, edge computing has now become a ground for cloud computing vendors to test the waters. BAT's cloud computing products are already doing related explorations and have launched related products. The traditional CDN service provider Wangsu Technology has started the practice of edge computing in 2016. From CDN network to edge computing network to edge computing platform construction, it can be said that it is a relatively smooth evolution.

With the gradual expansion of the cooperation ecology and product ecology of cloud computing vendors, their tentacles are no longer limited to the original "cloud platform", but become smarter, more complete, and pursue greater added value.

The first half of 2018 has ended. What good things will cloud computing in the second half of 2018 look forward to?

Floating Ball Liquid Level Sensor

The floating ball liquid level transmitter is composed of magnetic floating ball, measuring conduit, signal unit, electronic unit, junction box and mounting parts. Generally, the specific gravity of the magnetic floating ball is less than 0.5, which can float above the liquid level and move up and down along the measuring conduit. The conduit is equipped with measuring elements, which can convert the measured liquid level signal into a resistance signal proportional to the change of liquid level under the action of external magnetism, And convert the electronic unit into 4 ~ 20mA or other standard signal output.
The liquid level sensor is a modular circuit, which has the advantages of acid resistance, moisture resistance, shock resistance and corrosion resistance. The circuit contains a constant current feedback circuit and an internal protection circuit, which can make the maximum output current no more than 28ma, so it can reliably protect the power supply and prevent the secondary instrument from being damaged.
