Abstract

We use confidential firm-level data to examine the association between export intensity and subscription to cloud computer services – a technology that often requires very high-speed broadband. Our focus on rural nonfarm exports is motivated by the increasing concentration of manufacturing—the dominant export sector—in nonmetropolitan counties and the large public investment in extending high-speed broadband to underserved parts of the U.S. We find that cloud computing is associated with higher export intensity that is consistent with exporting activity placing new demands on IT-enabled functions such as order fulfillment and tracking, marketing, or document control.

云计算与农村全球化:美国非农经济的证据
我们使用保密的企业级数据来研究出口强度与订购云计算机服务之间的关联--这种技术通常需要非常高速的宽带。我们之所以关注农村非农出口,是因为制造业--最主要的出口部门--越来越集中在非大城市的县城,而且有大量公共投资将高速宽带扩展到美国服务不足的地区。我们发现,云计算与较高的出口强度相关,这与出口活动对订单履行和跟踪、营销或文件控制等 IT 功能提出新要求是一致的。
