云计算在图书馆应用中的优势和挑战

Discussion on the Application of Cloud Computing in the Library

云计算是继网格技术后产生的新型计算模式,它具有强大的数据存储能力和网络服务能力。云计算技术的应用,为图书馆的资源管理工作提供了方便,为存储和管理数据资源提供了更多的空间,为图书馆完成各类数据资源服务提供了强大的计算能力。同时,云计算也存在一定的缺陷和不完善之处,给图书馆发展带来机遇的同时也带来了挑战。我们要理性地看待云计算技术对图书馆的"双刃剑"作用,将云计算技术充分应用到数字图书馆中,更好地为读者服务,更好地体现图书馆的人文关怀。

After the application of network technology, cloud computing is a new computing modal, which has powerful data storage capacity and network service ability. The application of cloud computing technology facilitates the library resource management and provides more space for the storage and management of the data resources. While, cloud computing has some defect and imperfect parts, which brings both opportunities and challenges to the library. We should treat the two-blade function of cloud computing technology rationally and apply cloud computing to the digital library, which will better serve the readers and better reflect the humanity care of library.
