Cloud computing is powering the world today, from the rocket ship tech company to long-standing players in traditional fields like banking and construction. How we collaborate, how we share work, protect our data and choose to share it with the world – all is made possible with the cloud, fueling innovation not just in tech, but in every industry.
雲端計算正為當今世界賦能,從火箭技術公司到諸如銀行業和建築業這類傳統領域的長期參與者。我們該如何協作、共享成果、保護資料、全球共享——所有這些都與“雲”息息相關,它不僅在科技領域上推動創新,而且已滲透於各行各業。
For the third consecutive year, the Forbes Cloud 100 recognizes the best and brightest of tech's hottest category. Compiled with the help of partners Bessemer Venture Partners and Salesforce Ventures, the list tracks the best private cloud companies in the world by operating metrics such as revenue and funding, while enlisting the help of no less than 34 of their public cloud CEO peers.
福布斯雲端計算100強連續三年被評為科技領域最熱門、最優秀、最睿智的排行榜。在合作伙伴Bessemer Venture partners和Salesforce Ventures的幫助下,這份榜單通過營收和融資等運營指標追蹤全球最好的私有云公司,同時獲得了至少34家公共雲執行長(CEO)的幫助。
The companies of the Cloud 100 are champions of small business and facilitators of the world's most important multi-national corporations, helping manage everything from restaurant orders to the field operations of oil rigs at sea. For the second year running, they're led by Stripe, the online payments company founded by two Irish-born brothers, Patrick Collison and John Collison, and valued at $9.2 billion. At millions of businesses globally, Stripe serves as the online tool kit for digital payments, helping billions in transactions flow back into the economy at customers Lyft, Target, Under Armour and Unicef.
上榜雲端計算100強的公司是小型企業和世界級重要跨國公司服務商裡的贏家,他們的經營範疇涵蓋管理從餐廳訂單到海上石油鑽井平臺的所有業務。上榜公司以Stripe公司為首,這家連續兩年拔得頭籌的線上支付公司由一對愛爾蘭的兄弟Patrick Collison和John Collison創立,目前估值92億美元。在全球數以百萬計的企業中,Stripe充當著數字支付的線上工具包,幫助諸如Lyft、Target、Under Armour和聯合國兒童基金會(Unicef)一列的客戶將數十億筆交易迴流到經濟中。
After Stripe, there are major changes to the Cloud 100 top 5. With last year's No. 2 Dropbox now a public company, Slack moves up to the second slot in 2018. for its collaboration software; video messaging service Zoom Video Communications and security vendor Tanium slot replace now-public 2017 standouts DocuSign and Adyen. And a business selling to an unlikely category – construction tech – rounds out the top 5 with Procore, the subject of this year's Cloud 100 magazine feature.
Stripe之後,雲端計算100強前五發生了重大變化。去年排名第二的Dropbox公司現在是一家上市公司,Slack在2018年的排名中躋身第二位。視訊通訊服務商Zoom Video Communications 和企業安全供應商Tanium slot取代了現公開的2017 年雲端計算100強裡standouts DocuSign和Adyen的位置。而一家做建築技術銷售的冷門企業,則依靠今年《雲端計算100》(Cloud 100)雜誌特刊主題——Procore的報道,一躍成為榜單第五名。
There are 27 newcomers on the Cloud 100 list in 2018, led by robotic process automation company UiPath at No. 14. Other notable first-timers include developer tool-maker HashiCorp at No. 32 and AI-backed security company Darktrace, led by team of ex-researchers and government agents in the US and UK, at No. 36.
“2018雲端計算100”強榜單上有27個新晉企業,排在第14位的是機器人流程自動化公司UiPath。其他引人注目的新起之秀還包括排名第32位的開發工具製造商HashiCorp和由英美兩國前研究人員及政府機構支援,基於AI技術的安全公司Darktrace。
The Bay Area dominates the 2018 Cloud 100 list, representing 51 of the 100 companies, up from 48 a year ago. New York City was next (11), followed by Boston (7), Utah (4) and then the central California coast (3), Los Angeles (3), North Carolina (3) and Seattle (3). Internationally, two companies join the list from the United Kingdom, and companies from Estonia, Israel, The Netherlands and Switzerland are all represented. But at least two of the Cloud 100 companies, InVision and Zapier, operate with no office at all.
在“2018雲端計算100強”榜單上,海灣地區佔據了主導地位,100家公司中有51家來自於海灣地區,高於一年前的48家。其次是紐約(11家),再次是波士頓(7家)、猶他(4家)和加利福尼亞中部海岸(3家)、洛杉磯(3家)、北卡羅來納州(3家)和西雅圖(3家)。但云計算100強公司中,至少有兩家公司(InVision和Zapier)根本沒有辦公室。
The top-ranked female-led company on the list is Eventbrite, the event ticketing and RSVP shop led by cofounder and CEO Julia Hartz. Eventbrite may not be on the list much longer, having recently filed to go public.
榜上有名的女性領導的雲端計算公司是Eventbrite,聯合創始人兼執行長Julia Hartz領導了活動票務和RSVP商店。Eventbrite可能不會在名單上停留太久,因為最近他們已經申請上市。
The top categories of the Cloud 100 list in 2018 were Infrastructure & Developer Tools (15); Sales & Support (12); Security (12); Data & Analytics(11); Collaboration & Work (9). The top 20 of the list included companies from 10 of our 12 categories, led by Security and Data (4) and Analytics (4).

雖然資料分析在公司分類中排名第四,但投資者投入的資金卻是最多的,總計約39.3億美元。
