EDITOR

Alibaba Group Zeng Ming, chief strategy officer, has systematically summarized the value of cloud computing to enterprises.

1. Move + Cloud computing IT has realized the "online" of IT services, so that the threshold of technology is greatly reduced.

2, cloud computing is a public service, is a variable cost, can be used on demand, is no longer a fixed asset investment, the cost pressure of startups has dropped significantly.

3. Cloud computing turns data into a means of production and enterprise assets.

Cloud computing is the use of sufficient low-cost, commercial models to solve large computing problems. In the past, we only thought of supercomputers, its operating costs are high, and the reaction speed is still very slow, when these large Internet applications really develop, such as Taobao, hundreds of millions of merchants put forward the purchase needs, real-time information matching behind, is the calculation of big data. Therefore, cloud computing is a solution that uses a distributed method and computes large amounts of data. If there is no computing power, we can't talk about the era of big data, let alone the efficient application of massive data ^[9] .

Ma Yun put forward five new ideas at the 2016 Hangzhou Yunqi Conference: "New retail, new manufacturing, new finance, new technology, new energy", Ali Cloud is becoming the "five new" economic infrastructure, its self-developed super-scale general computing operating system Feitian, can connect millions of servers all over the world into a supercomputer, to provide computing power to the society in the way of online public services ^[10] .

President of Alibaba Cloud Hu Xiaoming In the next 3 to 5 years, cloud computing and big data will not only change in the Internet, but also in the Internet Industrial manufacturing , agricultural operations, Urban traffic , and genetics , medical imaging, education and entertainment and other fields. "Cloud computing and big data will change the basic ecology of all walks of life. Alibaba hopes to export its existing capabilities to more innovators, entrepreneurs, government agencies and domestic and foreign partners." ^[11]

EDITOR

Flying operating system structure diagram

apsaras (Apsara) was born in February 2009. It is a large-scale general computing service independently developed by Alibaba Cloud and serves the world Operating system For more than 200 countries and regions around the world to provide services for innovative and entrepreneurial enterprises, governments, institutions, etc. Flying Sky hopes to address the scale, efficiency and security of human computing. It can connect millions of servers around the world into a supercomputer, providing computing power to society as an online public service. ^[31] The revolution of Flying is to integrate the three directions of cloud computing: to provide sufficient computing power, to provide universal computing power, and to provide universal computing power.

Feitian manages an Internet-scale infrastructure. At the bottom are dozens of data centers around the world, hundreds of PoP nodes. The physical infrastructure managed by Flying Sky continues to expand.

The flying core runs in each data center, which is responsible for unified management of the general server cluster in the data center, scheduling the computing and storage resources of the cluster, supporting the deployment and execution of distributed applications, and automatically performing fault recovery and data redundancy.

Security management is rooted at the very bottom of the flying core. The authorization mechanism provided by the flying kernel can effectively implement the "Principle of least privilege". At the same time, an autonomous and controllable full-stack security system has been established.

Monitoring alarm diagnosis is one of the most basic capabilities of the flying kernel. The flying core provides detailed, uninterrupted monitoring data and system event collection for upper layer applications, which can be traced back to the moment of the problem, helping engineers find the root cause of the problem.

On top of the basic public module, there are two core services, one is called Pangu and the other is called Fuxi. Pangu is a storage management service, Fuxi is a resource scheduling service, and the storage and resource allocation applied on the flying core are managed by Pangu and Fuxi.

Flying structure

Next to the basic public module, there is another service called Space-based. It means "the foundation of flying." Skybase is the automated operation and maintenance service of the flying machine, responsible for the deployment, upgrade, expansion and fault migration of the various subsystems of the flying machine ^[32] .

Feitian core services are divided into: computing, storage, database, network.

Hangzhou city brain

Hangzhou government and Alibaba Cloud announced the "Hangzhou City Data Brain" plan

On October 13, 2016, at the Hangzhou · Yunqi Conference, Hangzhou Municipal government Alibaba Cloud announced a "crazy" plan to install an artificial intelligence hub - Hangzhou City Data Brain - for the city, which has a history of more than 2,200 years.

The core of the city brain uses Alibaba Cloud ET artificial intelligence technology, which can conduct global real-time analysis of the entire city, automatically deploy public resources, correct bugs in the city's operation, and eventually evolve into a super artificial intelligence that can govern the city.

In September 2016, the Urban Brain traffic module was put into use in Shixin Road, Xiaoshan District. Preliminary test data show that through intelligent adjustment of traffic lights, the speed of road vehicles has increased by 3% to 5% on average, and there is an 11% increase in some sections, which really begins to explore the use of large-scale data to improve traffic. ^[36]

12306.com

On January 16, 2014, Alibaba Cloud confirmed that it had indeed provided technical assistance to the 12306 train ticket website and was responsible for undertaking 75% of the remaining ticket query traffic of the 12306 website.

Public data shows that the peak day for ticket sales during the Spring Festival travel rush in 2015 was December 19, 2014. 12306 website visits (PV value) reached a record-breaking 29.7 billion, with an average of more than 300,000 PV per second. A total of 9.564 million train tickets were sold on the same day, of which 5.639 million were sold on the Internet, accounting for 59%, both reaching a new high in the Spring Festival travel rush in previous years.

12306 Spring Festival peak traffic is dozens of times the usual. If the traditional IT solution is adopted, a large number of hardware devices need to be purchased according to the peak traffic volume for the annual Spring Festival travel rush, and then these devices will be idle, resulting in a huge waste of resources.

In addition, if the Spring Festival peak traffic exceeds expectations, the website will face paralysis, because large-scale server procurement, shelf, deployment and debugging, it takes at least one or two months, there is no time to temporarily add the server. Using elastic expansion Cloud computing Can solve this problem.

The use of cloud computing itself is lower than the cost of buying their own hardware, in addition to all resources are "pay-as-you-go", from National Day Golden Week In the process of Spring Festival, 12306 has done two large-scale expansions on the cloud, and the delivery of resources for each expansion is completed at the minute level. After the peak period is over, unnecessary resources can be released to recover costs.

Platform base Guizhou Provincial Public Security Department traffic police corps Adopt Ali cloud based Cloud computing technology It can conduct full database association, intelligent association, automatic research and judgment, and deep mining of massive traffic data, and provide support for public services, traffic management, and police combat.

"In the past, to seize a fake or duplicate car, it relied on the accidental discovery of the road traffic police and the public's reports, and..." According to Wang Bin, head of the traffic police command center of the Guizhou Provincial Public Security Department, "By structuring the vehicle pictures and comparing them with the original real vehicle pictures, you can instantly determine whether the car is a fake or a set of brand cars."

Previously, Guizhou Province has set up a relatively perfect monitoring system on the road. The total amount of real-time data collected by the network monitoring system alone has reached 100 terabytes per month. At the same time, all kinds of data from the internal system of the public security and from the society continue to pour in like a flood. A seemingly simple traffic data query needs to cross-compare multiple databases, and the query response is slow. In addition to being able to realize the second check of a set of brand cars, through the integrated supervision system of key vehicles running on the cloud, Guizhou Traffic Police will incorporate the province's 53,300 transportation enterprises, 599,000 transport drivers, 1,755 key regulated enterprises, 53,000 key regulated vehicles, 4,341 leasing enterprises, and 35,000 rental vehicles into dynamic supervision.
