Recently, Henan Airport Computing Center announced the official commissioning of the project, which is also China's central region's largest computing center, the project in accordance with the standards of the A-class data center to build 15 modular rooms, mainly to meet the high-end training of large model R & D enterprises arithmetic needs. It is reported that Henan Airport Smart Computing Center in the model algorithm enterprise recruitment, has reached a cooperation agreement with Tencent Cloud, Xunfei Starfire, Smart Spectrum Huazhang three domestic first-tier large model manufacturers.

The importance of the Smart Computing Center as the core infrastructure to support large-scale artificial intelligence applications and complex data processing is becoming increasingly prominent.

The “Implementation Plan for Accelerating the ‘Six New’ Breakthroughs in Manufacturing in Henan Province” released in March 2024 proposes to accelerate the construction of supercomputing facilities for smart computing, so that by 2025, the scale of smart computing and supercomputing arithmetic power will exceed 2,000 PFLOPS, and the proportion of high-performance arithmetic power will exceed 30%. Infrastructure Development Plan (2024-2026)” released in November 2024 puts forward the development goal that by the end of 2026, a reasonably laid out, green and low-carbon, highly efficient and intensive, safe and reliable arithmetic infrastructure development pattern will be formed, and the number of standard racks of the province's arithmetic infrastructure will reach 350,000 racks, with an average utilization rate of more than 70%, and the scale of arithmetic power will be more than 120 EFLOPS The percentage of high-performance arithmetic such as smart computing and supercomputing exceeds 90%, and more than 10 large-scale arithmetic centers with arithmetic scale up to E-level have been formed.

In order to meet the urgent demand for arithmetic power in the digital economy and intelligent society, the policy guidance distinctly requires accelerating the pace of deployment of high-performance and intelligent computing centers, continuously improving the level of arithmetic power supply, and promoting the in-depth integration of arithmetic power with data, algorithms, applications, etc., so as to improve the efficiency of arithmetic power utilization. By strengthening the management and scheduling of arithmetic resources, the optimal allocation and efficient utilization of arithmetic resources can be achieved, and idle and wasteful use of arithmetic resources can be effectively avoided. With the continuous advancement of AI technology, the Smart Computing Center will continue to introduce new technologies, new architectures and new equipment, thereby further enhancing the level of arithmetic power supply and energy efficiency ratio. For example, cutting-edge new computing technologies, such as quantum computing and brain-like computing, will be gradually applied to ICC to provide more efficient and accurate arithmetic support for AI applications. Meanwhile, the Smart Computing Center will also strengthen the integration and development with other new information infrastructures to jointly promote the prosperity and flourishing of the digital economy.

As the digital economy and intelligent society are developing rapidly, the market demand for IQC will continue to grow, especially in the cutting-edge fields such as intelligent manufacturing, smart city and automatic driving, IQC will play an increasingly important role, which will directly promote the expansion of IQC's construction scale and the innovation of its operation mode, and then form a more perfect and mature IQC industrial ecosystem. As of June 2024, the standard racks of China's in-use computing centers exceeded 8.3 million, and the scale of computing power reached 246EFLOPS, with the year-on-year growth rate of smart computing power exceeding 65%, and the future of smart computing power will continue to develop and lead the industrial change.

With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of the market, the Smart Computing Center is also moving towards more efficient, green and sustainable development, providing strong support for the high-quality development of the economy and society. Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the digital economy, ICC, as an important force for promoting technological innovation and economic growth, is gradually becoming the core support for the transformation and upgrading of various industries. In terms of technology, with the rise of multimodal AI technology, the application scenarios of the future smart computing industry will adapt to the diversified development of AI arithmetic demand, covering a variety of fields such as smart manufacturing, smart cities and financial technology, becoming an important bridge connecting the digital economy and the real economy.
