BEIJING, March 5 (Xinhua) -- Cloud computing technologies have maintained positive development momentum in China, with use of the technologies spread from the internet to government affairs and other conventional sectors such as finance and industries, according to a statistical report on internet development.
Cloud computing is widely adopted in government, with more than 90 percent of China's provincial-level governments and 70 percent of city-level governments having established or being establishing government affairs cloud platforms, said the report, which was recently released by China Internet Network Information Center, quoting statistics attained for the past year.
