The Chengdu Intelligence Center of Sichuan Province was officially launched; the Ecological Computing Power Center of the Yellow River Basin of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was launched ... Since the "East Digital Western Calculation" project was officially launched in February this year, a large number of data center projects in 4 months, a large number of data center projects Or start construction or put into operation, the national computing power "one network" accelerates the weaving.

On June 16, the National Development and Reform Commission held a press conference. Meng Wei, a spokesperson for the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the next step will be strengthened to strengthen the national integrated big data center layout, which will increase support around planning, network, and energy. , Support the construction of the "East Digital and West Calculation" project, and promote the construction of the hub nodes to take effect as soon as possible.

Relieve unbalanced computing power of the east and west

The Tengger Desert in June was hot. At the edge of the Tengger Desert, the construction of hotness in the western cloud base of Zhongwei City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region: tower hanging forestry and rumbling sounds, each project is changing from drawings to reality.

In the data center of the Western Cloud Base, the operation and maintenance personnel carefully inspect the server in the computer room to ensure that the "data brain" runs normally. Massive data from large cities such as Beijing and Shanghai are transmitted to the central defender through high -speed networks, and then returned to the original road after calculation and storage. Why do these data "big circles"?

In the digital economy era, computing power is core productivity, similar to the water conservancy and industrial power in the agricultural era. At present, the whole society's demand for computing power is very urgent. But the reality is that most of the data centers in my country are distributed in the eastern region. Due to the increasingly tense land and energy resources, it is difficult to sustain the large -scale development of data centers in the eastern part. In the western region of my country, there are abundant resources, especially renewable energy, and have the potential to develop data centers and undertake the needs of eastern computing power. In other words, the distribution of computing power resources in my country presents an unbalanced situation of "inadequate eastern and excess western". As a result, "East Digital and West Calculation" came into being.

In February of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments jointly issued a notice that they agreed to start the construction of the national computing power hub in many places in Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area, Chengdu -Chongqing, Inner Mongolia, Guizhou, Gansu, Ningxia and other places. And planned 10 national data center clusters. At this point, the overall layout design of the National Integrated Big Data Center system has been officially launched.

The "number" in the "East Nigne West Calculation" project refers to data; "calculation" refers to computing power, that is, the ability to process data. He Baohong, director of the Institute of Cloud Computing and Big Data of the China Institute of Information and Communication, believes that, as "South Water and North Diversion", "West Power Transmission" and "West Qi East", "East Digital and West Calcus" is another important strategic project in the country. Through the "East Digital and West Calculation", my country's systematic and reasonable layout of data center resources can be achieved to achieve the integrated development of national data centers.

The "East Digital West Calculation" project has been fully launched, which has effectively promoted the construction of the national computing power "one network". In this "one net", the east and west areas are focused on each other. The relevant person in charge of the High and Technical Department of the National Development and Reform Commission said that on the one hand, it accelerates the large -scale layout of data centers to west, especially for background processing, offline analysis, and storage of backups. Undertake by the Western Data Center. On the other hand, due to the latency caused by the long -range network transmission, and the effects of related supporting facilities, the Western Data Center cannot meet all computing power needs. Some businesses that require high networks, such as industrial Internet, financial securities, disaster warnings, remote medical care, video calls, artificial intelligence reasoning, etc., can be deployed in eastern hubs such as Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area, The internal of the hub should focus on the transfer of data centers from first -tier cities to surroundings to ensure the coordination and sustainability of computing power deployment and resource energy.

The "East Digital and West Calculation" project has been fully launched to further optimize the "new base" of my country's digital economy. Computing power has become an important infrastructure for the development of the national economy. Related research reports show that for each increase of 1 point in the computing power index, the digital economy and GDP will increase by 3.5 ‰ and 1.8 ‰, respectively. He Baohong said that through data attracting and leading capital flow, talent flow, and technology flow, "East Digital and West Calculation" helps to open up the artery of the digital industry in the east and west parts of our country, and achieve digital resources, digital computing power, digital industry, digital services, etc. The reasonable layout of the series of ecology has injected new momentum for the development of the digital economy in my country.

Data center project dense construction

After the "East Digital and West Calculation" project was fully launched, the data center of the data rose.

On June 10, in Qingyang City, Gansu Province, a 18 -acre data center is stepping up construction. The transportation vehicles come and go, and the workers are organized in an orderly manner. This is the Gansu Mobile Green Data Center project built by China Mobile Communications Group Qingyang Branch. It is planned to be completed by the end of 2023.

In the "East Digital West Calculation" project layout, Qingyang Data Center Cluster is one of the 10 national data centers clusters. By the end of 2023, the Qingyang Data Center cluster is expected to add 150,000 standard racks of 2.5 kW, which will significantly improve information infrastructure support capabilities and service levels. At the 2022 China International Big Data Industry Expo recently held, Yang Jie, chairman of China Mobile Communications Group Co., Ltd., said that China Mobile implements the national "East Digital and Western Calculation" deployment, innovatively build computing power networks, and promote computing power in physical space. The integration and development of logical space and heterogeneous space. Facing the requirements for the construction of eight computing hub nodes across the country, accelerate the optimization of data center layout and network -shaped interconnection, and carry out pilot pilot pairing pilots in the East and West Hub.

On June 7, China Telecom Cloud Computing Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Information Park B -district Data Center started construction at Helins County. The cluster with Linkle Data Center is one of the 10 national data centers clusters. The total land area of ​​the information park is 1467 acres, with a total investment of 17.3 billion yuan. It is planned to build 42 data centers and 19 supporting buildings. It has more than 100,000 machine installation capabilities and more than 1 million servers with cloud computing capabilities.

According to the data released by the National Development and Reform Commission, as of April, 25 new projects were started among the 10 national data centers across the country, and the size of the data center reached 540,000 standard racks. , About 27 million personal computers, driving more than 190 billion yuan in investment in all aspects. Among them, investment in the western region increased by 6 times over the same period last year. It is expected that during the "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" period, the investment of big data centers will increase at a rate of more than 20%per year, and the cumulative investment in various aspects will increase by more than 3 trillion yuan.

In the "East Digital West Calculation" strategy, the construction of the eastern hub is equally important.

On May 29, the national integration computing power network of the National Hub Node Data Center of the National Hub Node of the Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area was fully launched in Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province. On the same day, 30 major projects from companies such as Inspur, Huawei, Tencent, Kuaishou, China Telecom and other companies were signed and settled.

Shaoguan is a must -have fulcrum between Beijing to the Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area. The cost of data exchange is low and low, which can effectively undertake the real -time computing power needs of the Greater Bay Area. It is estimated that by 2025, the comprehensive carrying capacity of the Shaoguan data center cluster will reach 500,000 standard rack scale, which will effectively drive Shaoguan to form a gathering effect in the upper and middle reaches of the data industry, and create a 100 billion -level electronic information and big data industry cluster.

While building a data center, various supporting facilities have also stepped up.

Zhangjiakou data center cluster in Hebei Province is one of the 10 national data centers clusters. It is positioned as the real -time computing power needs of Beijing and other places to build real -time computing power centers that radiate North China, Northeast and even the country. The data center has a large demand for electricity. To this end, Zhangjiakou builds an integrated landscape power station in Zhangbei County, Guyuan County and other landscapes.

At the beginning of June, at the construction site of the wind power project of the Guiyuan County, workers were building the road to enter the field to build a booster station and a fan lifting platform. The person in charge of the project construction introduced that the total installed capacity of the project was 5.5 million kilowatts. It started in May this year and is expected to generate electricity at the end of the year.

A large number of typical application scenarios are on the ground

The "East Digital West Calculation" project has been fully launched to promote a large number of typical application scenarios.

Recently, Guizhou Zhongyun Data Service Co., Ltd. provides cloud support for Ruiyun Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen, Guangdong Province. Ruiyun Technology is engaged in large -scale film and television rendering business. Dai Kuanguo, an network engineer of Ruiyun Technology Co., Ltd., said, "Before a single -machine single -frame rendering of a film, it took more than 100 hours. With the help of Guizhou Zhongyun's super computing power, time can be shortened to 1 hour. Even a few minutes. "

It is understood that the later rendering work of many film and television works such as "Wandering Earth", "Changjin Lake", "White Snake 2: Green Snake Raiders" and other film and television works are completed in Guizhou. Guizhou has become one of the regions with the most large -scale data centers in the world, and the digital economy accounts for 34%of GDP. Nowadays, stepping on the "East Digital West Calculation" project drum point, data centers such as Huawei, Tencent, China Mobile have settled in Guizhou one after another, leaving more new application scenarios.

On May 10, the Chengdu Intelligence Center of Sichuan Province was officially launched. In the machine room of the Chengdu Intelligence Center Building, a row of servers are neatly discharged, and high -speed operation is being operated inside. On the day of the launch, Chengdu Intelligence Center ushered in the signing of 12 industry -leading companies, and the utilization rate of computing power reached more than 90%.

Chengdu Intelligence Center is equipped with an artificial intelligence computing power platform, urban intelligent brain platform and scientific research innovation platform. Intelligence Yunteng (Chengdu) Technology Co., Ltd. is one of the builders of Chengdu Intelligence Center. Wang Fuhong, the project manager of the Intelligence Yunteng Company, said, "Taking the urban intellectual brain platform as an example, relying on the strong computing power base, urban governance will be more refined. It can be fine to 1 kilometer, and the warning time for the stream is 45 minutes in advance. "

In the Gansu Guonet Cloud Data Center computer room located in Lanzhou New District, Gansu Province, the data from the platform server is uniformly called to the R & D project team of the State Boarding Industry Group in Beijing, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places. One -generation e -commerce platform (ECP2.0), company marketing 2.0 and other system research and development work.

According to Ma Dongdong, a cloud operation manager of Gansu Guoyun Data Center, taking the ECP2.0 project of the State Grid as an example, during the research and development of the project, supplier bidding, expert extraction, contract signing and performance, supplier qualification performance verification and other functional modules Development, testing and verification work all run at the Gansu National Net Cloud Data Center. The processed data is transmitted to the Beijing R & D department, which not only saves R & D costs, but also improves R & D efficiency. The "East Digital West Calculation" project brings a large number of new scenarios, opening up the era of computing power consumption. Zhang Yunquan, a researcher at the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said, "With the implementation of the" East Digital West Calculation "project, there may be a" computing power socket "like an electric socket in the future. Users only need to pay as the purchase of electricity to buy The computing power service is not available and easy to use. In the future, there may also be a "computing power factory 'and a" calculation network "similar to a power grid. Users can buy computing power service packages like buying traffic packages."
