Forty - seven percent of American companies in China say the security of the data is their main concern with cloud computing, up one percent for a year, according to a survey published this week.
16th annual China Business Climate Survey Report, conducted by the Chamber of Commerce American in the People's Republic of China (China AmCham) shows also internet censorship is an obstacle to the majority of the respondents.
Two-thirds of 365 members AmCham China indicated that blocked search engines ' negatively or slightly negative "harshly felt their business.
Computer issues not dispute also undertaken in China, that 48 percent said pollution of the air makes it difficult to recruit and retain executives.
Data security is surely in the minds of many that she has not mentioned as their main concern with cloud computing, because 68% consider the ineffective Chinese IPR enforcement. Ineffective enforcement may be the least of the concerns of foreign firms with Chinese Government agencies, in 2013, Mandiant has reported that a specific unit of the people of liberation army was hacking businesses, many of them of America.
China has suffered a major failure of the internet in January, highlighting the two challenges with access in China, as well as tensions between the United States and China on data security and network.
Despite these problems, optimism on the climate of China Affairs and the adoption of cloud continue investment in car by American companies. Intel announced it was investing in three Chinese companies cloud in February, and a number of U.S. companies have entered or expanded their presence on the Chinese market by establishing partnerships with Chinese companies, which avoids a licence problem also indicated in the report of the AmCham China. Microsoft and IBM have announced partnerships with key Chinese Data Centre operator 21Vianet last year.
Government of China is certainly eager to develop cloud computing in the market still booming, as evidenced by its recent commitment to invest 1 billion $ in the development of cloud in the coming years.
Much less certain is that it will be able to stay out of its own way.
