Every day, routine inspections are carried out in the machine rooms of the Gui'an Supercomputing Center (hereinafter referred to as the Gui'an Supercomputing Center) located at the China Telecom Cloud Computing Guizhou Information Park. Two maintenance personnel move through the aisles of the data center, carefully checking the temperatures of the chassis and the circuits, while two technicians use instruments to test whether the servers are operating normally. Each inspection lasts approximately one hour.
The data center of the Gui'an Supercomputing Center houses over 600 servers. As a major scientific and technological infrastructure aimed at advancing scientific research, technological development, and industrial innovation, the center was jointly constructed by the Guizhou Provincial Department of Science and Technology and the Administrative Committee of Gui'an New Area, and is operated by the Gui'an New Area Science and Technology Innovation Industry Development Co., Ltd. As an important platform for Guizhou's efforts to build the "East Data West Computing" initiative, the Gui'an Supercomputing Center can be considered Guizhou's "most powerful brain."
The multi-cloud heterogeneous computing resource scheduling platform equipped at the Gui'an Supercomputing Center can integrate computing resources both within and outside the province, opening up computing channels across industries, regions, and levels. To date, the Gui'an Supercomputing Center has delivered approximately 16 million card-hours of computing power to cities such as Shenzhen, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, and Wuhan.
In 2022, the Gui'an Supercomputing Center provided cloud rendering service computing support for over 200,000 users from more than 50 countries and regions, participating in the rendering of approximately 50 film and television works, totaling 69 million hours of rendering time, including "The Battle at Lake Changjin II," "The Wandering Earth 2," and "The Three-Body Problem."
Additionally, the Gui'an Supercomputing Center also provides high-performance computing support for various industries, including biomedicine, artificial intelligence, and building seismic resistance.
