So how much is cloud computing going to accelerate next year?

明年雲端運算會有什麼樣的進展呢？

From the results we saw in the previous quarter, it seems that the acceleration is peaking up, which could continue into 2016.

從上一季的結果來看，雲端運算成長不斷地上升，這股趨勢將延續至2016年

This is for basic infrastructure as a service. So, if you wanna start a new application, start a new business instead of building your own infrastructure,

服務都是建立在雲端的基礎之上。如果想著手開發新的應用程式、新的企業，不須再建立自己的基礎雲端設備

you just go out and rent it from Amazon, Google, Microsoft.

只需向外尋求，跟亞馬遜、Google 或微軟租下這項服務

And I think that's an area which could see acceleration much more than what we have seen in 2015 also,

而在這塊領域中，我們會看到比在2015年更多的成長與進步

which has broader ramifications for the entire tech industry. If companies that provide legacy software, so the kinds of

對科技業來也會有更廣泛的影響。如果企業們提供軟體研發

you know, the articles, the VMF, IBM does a lot of work where...

如大家所熟知的，VMF、IBM 是這領域的權威

Now these guys will benefit from the cloud in their cloud segments, but their core legacy businesses or the core software and services that they sell,

現在這些企業會因各自擁有的雲端而有所獲利，但他們販售的主要研發業務、主軟體和服務

I think they'll have some more pressure on those areas.

就這些領域而言，他們將面臨更多壓力

Right, and the core question is how quickly can they make that adjustment so that it offsets, you know, this legacy business decline.

沒錯，問題是他們要多快才能適應，才能抵消軟體研發業務的式微

Ok, security software is another area of growth, right?

對了，防毒軟體在另一領域中也有所成長，是吧？

Yeah, security has been an area of growth for several years. What we think is gonna happen next year also is,

是啊，防毒軟體這幾年都有所成長。我們預估明年可能會發生的是

what we've seen over the last one and a half year is there are certain advanced security companies, the likes of Palo Alto and FireEye that have done fairly well in terms of growth rates.

從一年半前發展頗佳的防毒軟體公司，像是

The likes of IBM and Cisco, which are traditional legacy software companies and the security rum,

而像是 IBM 和 思科系統公司，都屬於傳統的軟體開發和防毒研發商

I think they will also try to catch up and have a lot more advanced security products of their own,

我覺得他們也會跟著追上目前的潮流，進一步開發自家的防毒產品

so that they can also benefit from this rising advanced security expanding at his point.

如此一來，他們就能搭上目前防毒產品的夯趨勢，從中獲利

Ok, so what about consolidation? Are we gonna see any kind of shake out, and any of these areas here on around?

了解，那要如何強化這方面的趨勢呢？在這些領域裡會有什麼大改變嗎？

We should see it across, the board spectrum whether it's cloud or security if you have niche vendors or if you have some specialization that they do,

我們應該從更廣泛的角度來看，不論是雲端運算或防毒安全，如果有

they're most likely going to be acquired by larger vendors, the likes of IBM, Cisco, and some of the others. They would be more acquisitive at this space.

他們更有可能受更大型的販售商買下，像是IBM、思科系統公司或其他相似的企業。他們在這方面的需求會大增。

And analytics?

有什麼分析依據嗎？

That's the one area I think that could become the promising area from an application point of view.

從應用程式研發來看，我認為這個領域的發展相當具有前景

What we are starting to see is there's a lot of VC money going into machine-learning artificial intelligence for the past several years.

過去幾年，有大量的風險資金投入機器學習的人工智慧開發

What we think is gonna happen next year is we're gonna start to see applications of that in software packages that come from,

明年將會出現一股趨勢，這方面的軟體應用程式將來自

let's say, you know, the companies like Microsoft, or Salesforce.com, or Workday.

眾所皆知的公司，像是微軟、雲端應用程式 Salesforce.com或是軟體公司 Workday

When the software is updated,you have a lot more machine-learning and artificial intelligence embedded in that.

軟體更新的話，會新增更多的機器學習和人工智慧功能
