16 years ago, Tian met two people: one trend founder Steve Chang, another is Yahoo founder Jerry Yang. After 16 years, one thing they pinched together, from a friend to a partner today. &Amp;ldquo; this is cloud computing. &Amp;rdquo; Tian said &ldquo the past 40 years, this is the IT industry of one of the most exciting thing!”
sits at the North of industry University software Park “ cloud base Beijing ” Office, Tian an interview with this reporter, recalled past Silicon Valley 16 years ago, still feel that it is the most significant result of life.
1988 year, Zhang Ming is Taiwan creation of trend micro, in 1994, Jerry Yang founded United States Yahoo, Tian returned in the same year founded the Asian letter. Three companies in Japan Tokyo, United States successful NASDAQ listing, Yahoo as the world's largest Internet portal, the trend Chinese became the world's largest software company, Tian joined China Netcom.
1995 year, three people result in Silicon Valley, are hot on the Internet, business start-up, can be described as high-spirited.
Zhang Mingzheng recalls “ at that time we used in a variety of exchanges with the Summit, Tian ‘ industry serve ’ ideal, and I'm keen on all kinds of business models for making money, Jerry Yang is often thinking about technology, we are complementary, but has not conducted commercial cooperation. &Amp;rdquo;
This state of Affairs continued until 2006. That year, Tian to leave Netcom, set up the broadband capital. Traditional virus industry catch up with the Internet's footsteps, Zhang Ming are looking for new directions for the trend. Jerry Yang is ready to succeed saimeierte as Yahoo CEO, Renaissance Yahoo.
2008 year, revival Yahoo Jerry Yang failed, bartz took over. The world is changing, three good friends have started a new exploration. They found a common cause of cloud computing.
“ cloud computing era, Chinese to change ‘ labour ’ status led led innovation ”. When you say this, early spring sunshine through the Windows of the ground in face of Tian, is bright and vivid.
four industry integration opportunities
Tian said that three people who either had genes of cloud computing, or have the potential of cloud computing.
earliest comes from Yahoo's Hadoop cloud computing, this is an open source distributed cloud computing platform, Yahoo portal, search, advertising systems based on Hadoop platform, many Internet companies such as Taobao, Baidu's primary business is based on the Hadoop platform. Tian felt, integration of industry resources, be sure to pull Yang far into the Council.
cloud computing driven by two forces at the earliest, the largest is the power of the Internet. Internet found mass users need to calculate, and cheap computing. Yahoo first is free, when a user development to 10 million, EMC, and IBM, and HP is too expensive, when Jerry Yang thought, PC server can solve the problem of large scale computing and storage? and Yahoo set up a 12-person team headed by Lu Qi, Hadoop, became the first cloud computing software platform. Lu Qi then switch to Microsoft, is responsible for Microsoft's search, Pai Tau in charge of Microsoft's cloud computing-oriented business.
in addition to the Internet, cloud computing is another driving force of software virtualization. A PC with a person in the past, the cloud is 100 PC, 1000 PC, Google is connecting more than 1 million PC through parallel computing to allow all users to share, from which the software virtualization plays a great role.
“ when it comes to software, no one is more appropriate than Zhang ming was. &Amp;rdquo; Tian said, Chinese software is the most successful people Zhang Mingzheng. In addition to United States companies, software companies annual sales of more than US $ 1 billion, the world's only two: one is SAP, is a trend.
“ at the time of Netcom, Ming and I just started to discuss, what, like the Internet, like PC technology, as well as mobile communication, change the world in the future? ” Tian said “ we finally came to a unanimous conclusion, is the cloud. &Amp;rdquo;
Tian believes that cloud computing is the media, communications, IT, Internet these four industries arising from the fusion of a revolution. Project Gutenberg (Nova), the media industry 500 years there have been no revolution-after the Bell telephone, address industry 100 years without change; IT includes computing and storage industry, 30 years have not changed; is the nature of Internet communications, has experienced more than 20 years of development. &Amp;ldquo; four industry integration opportunity Golden. &Amp;rdquo;
Tian believe that revolution began in host computers, ending at cloud computing. Cloud, everyone become one, generationLike movies, photos and logs can be stored; cheaper because of the massive computing power, you can analysis, management. And now the Internet is too expensive, too messed up.
2010 in May, is cooperating with Tian Zhang ming, set up days cloud technology, at the same time, Yang promised to invest into Tian's investment agency, including BlackBerry and a sea of funds. &Amp;ldquo; three Musketeers ” officially United, intended to seize four industry integration cloud computing opportunities.
