Chinese National Statistical System Based-On Cloud Computing.

Nowadays the demands for mass storage, efficient computing, and real-time sharing from statistical data pose a great series of threaten to the Chinese current statistical systems. Statistical departments moving to national statistical system based-on cloud computing may gain benefits such as cost saving, efficiency improving, and flexibility and scalability of services. Therefore, in this paper, cloud service models can be introduced. Also by analyzing the demands for cloud computing from statistics and the advantages of cloud computing applying to statistics, the basic architecture of national statistical system platform based-on cloud computing can be proposed, in order to solve current problems of mass storage, efficient computing, and real-time sharing from statistical data.
