Incumbents - BATS

Baidu Cloud Sina CloudAli Cloud

Observations & Personal Comments• Cloud(PaaS/IaaS/Hosting) is not a serious business for BATS.• BATS’s clouds are built up earlier than OpenStack, they are built from scratch.

• There are dozens of other smaller public cloud/hosting providers, most of them are struggling to survive, some of them are almost dead.

• No absolute cloud leader in China, customers are often confused to choose.
