The move reflected QingCloud, the world's first IaaS provider that can deliver any number of IT resources in seconds and adopts a second-based billing system, has kicked off an aggressive go-outbound campaign to better serve clients around the globe.

QingCloud is also putting final touches on its preparatory work for the expansion into the United States and plans to launch the USW1 zone soon.
