According to foreign media reports, the Business Software Alliance (BSA) released the 2013 Global Cloud Computing Evaluation Research Report on Thursday. The report pointed out that the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China) are still far behind developed countries in the formulation of important policies concerning the future development of cloud computing, but the four countries have made some progress in the past year.
Cloud computing ranking 1-12
Members of the Business Software Alliance include US industry giants such as Microsoft. The organization pointed out in its second annual cloud computing report that of the 24 countries surveyed, all the BRIC countries are in the lower half of the score. The Business Software Alliance has a total score of 100 points, and Brazil has a score of 44.1. The ranking has risen from the last to 22nd place. The rankings of China, India and Russia have all risen by 2 places, with scores of 51.5, 53.1 and 59.1 respectively.
Cloud computing refers to providing customers with software, storage, computing power, and other services from remote data centers via the network. The demand for cloud computing software has grown rapidly because the solution allows companies to use new programs more quickly and at lower cost than traditional products installed in customers ’own data centers. "Cloud computing is now a hot area in the IT industry, and American companies have a strong interest in countries that can promote rather than resist cloud computing policies." Robert Holleyman, president of the Business Software Alliance, said.
The report also pointed out that the accumulation of massive data in large data centers has also created "new and highly attractive targets" for cyber attacks. It is very important for law enforcement and cloud service providers to have the appropriate tools to deal with intrusions. "Australia, France, Germany, and Japan received very high scores in the cybercrime investigation section, while Canada, China, South Korea, Russia, and Vietnam received lower scores. The country with the greatest improvement was Brazil, which, after long-term research, eventually Passed the Cybercrime Law. "The report said.
The 24 countries involved in the survey represent 80% of the global information and communications technology industry and are rated in 7 areas, including data privacy, security, free trade, intellectual property protection, infrastructure, and fluency through industry-leading standards Support for data stream promotion.
According to the report, China has made a slight improvement in the introduction of a new data privacy law assessment this year, and Russia has gained credibility in the reforms undertaken by its accession to the World Trade Organization. The increase in India ’s score reflects the country ’s revision of copyright laws in line with international standards.
Cloud computing ranking 13-24
Japan once again ranked first with 84.1 points, and other developed countries with the closest scores include Australia, the United States, Germany, Singapore, France, the United Kingdom, and South Korea, with scores in the upper half of 70 to 80 points. Singapore rose from tenth to fifth. The country had previously passed a new data privacy law, which was praised by the Business Software Alliance for its "low interference" and balanced approach.
The United States rose from third place to second place, but Germany, France and the United Kingdom all fell one place, and Italy fell four places. Harleyman said that the EU is developing data protection regulations, which may make it difficult for data to cross borders. "If this measure is implemented, I think you will see that the ranking of major European countries will decline further." He said. Harleyman said that negotiations on free trade agreements between the United States and Europe are expected to begin before June.
Cross-border data flow has become a focus of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP) negotiations. TPP is a regional free trade agreement proposed by the United States and 10 other countries in the Asia-Pacific region and will be finalized this year. As one of the TPP member countries, Vietnam ranks last in this year's rating, with a score of only 40.1 points.
