The afternoon session panel discussion “the Impact of
Cloud Computing Era” was hosted by Dr. CK Wong, MH
who started it with question: Why to use Cloud? Mr.
Rocky Cheng (Deputy General Manager of Information
Technology, Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited) said
that Cloud is some kind of technology outsourcing.
Customer would know the need of outsourcing, then
understand to know why to use Cloud. Huang have
explained Private Cloud may not a good solution to
consider for 3 reasons: 1) Compliance consideration 2)
Service required 3) Public Cloud availability in China
may not 100% up.
That’s why lots of Hybrid Cloud model happens in China
too. And David from Cyberport mentioned community
cloud objective is to provide IaaS to those new start-
ups. Eric from Poly University did ask to think about how
to collect those analysis data to support the business
model. And Victor from HKPC alerted that 320K SMEs
cannot be ignored for cloud uses. HKPC help lots of
SMEs to transform, not only the company itself, but
also the bosses from those SMEs. SMEs may need more
fundamental education and more down to earth success
stories to let them understand more how Cloud can help
those specific industries to improve productivity and
better usability especially logistic and retail industry.
Subsequent trainings are required for those SMEs and
provided by HKPC.
The event was well attended by over 150 professionals
& executives, and it was successfully adjourned around
5pm right after the climax– luck draw for all attendants.
This event has obtained a lot of positive feedback from
the audience.
下午的小組討論「雲計算時代對各界的衝擊」由黃仲
翹博士MH博士主持。他以這問題開始﹕為甚麼使用雲
端技術？中國銀行（香港）有限公司資訊科技部副總
經理鄭松岩先生表示，雲端服務是某種技術外判。客
戶如明白外判的需要，便明白為何要使用雲端服務。
黃海先生則解釋私有雲端技術未必是好的解決方案，
基於以下三個原因﹕1）遵從規定的考慮；2）服務要
求；以及3）中國的公用雲端服務未必遍及至100%。
因此，中國出現了很多複合雲端模式。數碼港的鍾偉
強博士提到，社區雲端服務的目的，是向新創業務提
供IaaS。理工大學的徐汝康教授問及，如何收集分析
數據，支持營商模式。香港生產力促進局的吳瀚博士
提醒，不能忽略32萬中小企的雲端服務使用需要。香
港生產力促進局協助很多中小企轉營，不單是公司本
身，亦包括那些中小企的東主。中小企可能須受到更
多的基礎教育，使他們得知更多實際的成功故事，從
而更瞭解雲端服務如何協助那些特定的行業，尤其在
物流和零售業中改善生產力和可用性。生產力促進局
亦提供中小企其後所須的培訓。
是次活動共有超過150名專業人士和行政人員出席，
並於下午5時左右在高潮迭起的抽獎後結束。是次活動
廣受參與者的好評。
