DS决定捆死SW的用户 - 享受Cloud

https://www.deelip.com/?p=2222

The Dassault Systemes Cloud Revolution Has BegunOK, it has been confirmed. SOLIDWORKS will not be available as a desktop application after some period of time. Earlier SolidWorks CEO Jeff Ray gave me a twisted reply when I asked him whether all his customers will eventually have to move to the cloud, whether they wanted to or not. Today SolidWorks Social Media Manager, Matthew West and I had the following conversation in the comments of the final post of my series titled “The Dassault Systemes Cloud Strategy”:

Matthew: I think the main thing to bear in mind regarding what we’re doing is that when it’s rolled out, SolidWorks cloud apps will be an option for customers, not a requirement.
Deelip: You may want to cross check that with your CEO. That’s not what he told me when I specifically asked him that question. See the fourth and fifth paragraphs at https://www.deelip.com/?p=1349. Either you or I have caught the bull by the tail, and for your customer’s sake, I am hoping that it is me.
Matthew: What I meant was when it’s rolled out, it’s not an all or nothing thing. The installed version and cloud version will coexist for some period of time.

So if you are a SolidWorks user, you better start loving the cloud because Dassault Systemes has already made up your mind for you. Basically I think this is what is going to happen. You will learn to love the cloud and then you will learn to let go of that beloved desktop version of SolidWorks that you will have been clinging on to. Your design data and intellectual property will be stored on Dassault Systemes servers whether you like it or not. And you will learn to deal with it. Whether or not you will get to download a local copy for backup still remains an unanswered question at this point in time. I have given up asking. You will need to have a damn good internet connection wherever and whenever you feel like working. So you better start keeping an eye on the latest internet technologies. If you have been using a pirated version of SolidWorks, you will need to start to think of ways to pay for a SolidWorks service contract. If you are not on subscription and have been taking years to upgrade to new versions of SolidWorks or have been waiting for a few service packs to be released before you upgrade, you will need to let go of that “bad” habit. And yes, I believe the same will hold true for CATIA users as well.
On the positive side (not that I am implying that all the above is negative) you will also be part of a revolution that will change the CAD industry permanently. And the only way that revolution will succeed is if you give it your full cooperation using your understanding, patience and money. That’s the chicken and egg situation that Dassault Systems, SolidWorks and you will have to sit together and figure out. Make no mistake, the success or failure of this revolution largely depends on you. I wish you all the very best.
And by the way, I will be joining the revolution as well. I make SolidWorks add-ins, remember?




用D版的兄弟姐妹们要哭了，不仅要有网络，还要DS的数据库，一切都交给DS吧。DS真狠啊！

以后SW将不再是一个桌面软件，是一个要把你的数据放在DS server上的一个号称很帅的采用了cloud技术的不知道什么样的东西。简单说强制你工作在DS PDM平台下，需要Internet，是Internet，不是局域网，因为数据存储是要DS server,难道DS要做全球最大的数据存储商？不能理解，哪个客户会放心自己的数据要经过DS server插手？我相信洛克希德马丁，诺斯洛普格鲁曼，中国的军用航空厂商都不会干。

大家来讨论下，很震惊这种商业策略，感觉是野蛮时代的

或许他们想开创网络云概念的先河，想成为网络存储的先驱。

云是一种运算模式，运算结果肯定还是要存储在个人PC上的吧？安全问题我是这样认为的，如果基于网络的商务业务，通信业务是可行的，那云计算模式的安全性应该也无问题.

其实也不用那么担心吧，涉及国防安全的试问洛克希德马丁，诺斯洛普格鲁曼，中国的军用航空厂商那个会用sw呢？

谁来翻译一下嘛

问题是SW的could概念是从CATIA过来的，这几大厂商可都是CATIA的用户。

云是一种运算模式，运算结果肯定还是要存储在个人PC上的吧？安全问题我是这样认为的，如果基于网络的商务业务，通信业务是可行的，那云计算模式的安全性应该也无问题.

-------- 至少从这篇文章不是，也不是存储于在公司内部完全控制的NAS之类的东西上，而是受DS支配的数据Server.

当然这个概念还不是很清晰，持续关注中。

这不是云计算，是云存储。

问题是没有几个人愿意把公司的商业机密存储在别人的服务器上面把，如果google要你把你的产品设计都存储在他的比如Gmail里面，你肯定不干，因为哪天你得罪了Google或者美国**，那你就完了。

这个...等有空了再干
