HP has signed an agreement with Beijing UnionRead Information Technology, a content distribution network service provider and hybrid cloud operator, to build and operate community clouds for enterprise customers in China.

“Community clouds will become increasingly prevalent in China as communities of interest, such as an automotive supply chain or a city government,” said Martin Fink, executive vice president and chief technology officer, HP.
