Today, 2021 Hangzhou Cloud Conference officially opens.
Zhang Jianfeng, president of Ali Cloud Intelligence, explained a new world on the cloud for the first time with the theme of “Deep cloud, New World”. He think:
“A new computing architecture with the cloud as the core is taking shape, and with the further integration of cloud technologies, computing will further migrate to the cloud in the future, whether for enterprises or individuals.”
Among them, Zhang Jianfeng mentioned cloud native many times in his speech:
Cloud native fully release cloud computing dividend
Today, thousands of lines and hundreds of industries are embracing cloud computing and cloud native for digital upgrading, and the connotation of cloud native is also constantly enriching. At the beginning, cloud native technology emerged to help enterprises build flexible and scalable, fault-tolerant, easy to manage and observable loosely coupled systems. Representative technologies include containers, K8s, microservices, service grids, DevOps, etc. It can be seen that cloud native is a collection of application layer technologies.
The advantage of cloud computing is resource pooling. The benefit of this pooling is intensive management on a large scale, allowing flexibility and distribution everywhere. Cloud native technology can only exert its power when it is combined with cloud. Cloud native technology and cloud computing combine to form cloud native products. The common characteristics of these cloud native products are integrated software and hardware optimization, API-based operation and maintenance management, flexible on-demand access and product servitization.
Ali Cloud provides hundreds of cloud native products such as container services, cloud native big data, cloud native middleware, cloud native database, elastic bare metal server, and functional computing, which greatly simplifies the development and construction of business applications. According to industry research, more than 90% of enterprises are already using cloud native products for application construction.
Cloud native opens the era of all-cloud development
Cloud native is driving the all-cloud development revolution, as developers migrate from development under the cloud to development on the cloud for higher productivity. Industry surveys from authoritative organizations indicate that by the end of 2021, 68% of organizations and organizations will be using containers in production environments, 75% of enterprise software will be built using low-code technologies, and 25% of developers will be using Serverless technologies. Cloud native is beginning an era of on-cloud, all-cloud development.
In order to cope with and lead the changes of The Times and better empower developers, Ali Cloud provides a comprehensive range of tools, products and open source projects. Facing the entire technical community, Ali Cloud returns the technical achievements of research and development for many years to the world’s top foundations, such as Open Atom Open Source Foundation, Apache Foundation, CNCF, etc. Ali Cloud is committed to better promote the healthy development of the entire technological ecology. Currently, Ali Cloud has more than 2,700 + open source projects on GitHub, covering big data, cloud computing, AI, middleware, containers, Serverless and other fields, with more than 30,000 + ficolin-3 and 1.11 million + GitHub Star. Ranked first in the contribution of GitHub, an open source community for Chinese enterprises.
Some of these open source projects have become de facto standards in the field. For example, Dubbo has become the most influential and widely used open source micro-service framework in China. RocketMQ is the first Apache top-level middleware project in China, and also the de facto standard in the domestic messaging field. Flink project is the most popular and influential project in the field of big data flow processing. KubeVela is the industry’s first cloud computing open application architecture standard. The database field has continued to lead PolarDB and so on.
Ali Cloud has built an open standard technology system to serve the global developer community. A developer who wants to build a complete business application based on open source can find a corresponding solution in the open source ecosystem of Ali Cloud. Today, Ali Cloud open source project serves 5 million developers around the world and has a large number of benchmark enterprise customers, such as IQiyi, Tiger Tooth Live, China Southern Airlines, Ping An Technology and so on. At the same time, Ali Cloud is also a beneficiary of open source. A large number of cloud native open source projects have emerged, and the open source community has become a technological innovation center, making cloud computing more and more standardized, transparent and open, easy to use and accessible.
The business runs 100% on the public cloud and applies 100% cloud protogenics
Alibaba Group is also a beneficiary of cloud native, through which it fully enjoys the technical dividend of cloud computing.
Alibaba has achieved the world’s largest cloud native practice, with all businesses running 100% on the public cloud and applying 100% cloud biogenics. Based on the integrated optimization of software and hardware of containers, the online business deployment scale of millions of containers can bring the technical value of 30% increase in CPU resource utilization, 80% reduction in transaction cost of ten thousand transactions, 20% increase in R&D operation efficiency, and create greater social value by fully obtaining the bonus of cloud computing to seize business opportunities.
