Ministry of Industry and Information Technology Zhao Ce: accelerate the construction of "cloud-side end" synergy, computing, storage and transportation integration of computing power infrastructure system
Arithmetic is a new type of productivity in the era of digital economy and a new engine to drive the digital transformation of the economy and society. With the deep integration of digital economy and real economy, digital technology is deeply applied in all walks of life, and the important position and empowering role of computing power in the high-quality development of economy and society is increasingly prominent.
Recently, at the "Arithmetic Innovation Summit" of the 31st China International Information and Communication Exhibition, Zhao Ce, deputy director of the Department of Information and Communication Development of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that with the joint efforts of all sectors of society and industry, China's arithmetic industry has generally maintained rapid and healthy development and achieved positive results. The future should also promote the coordinated development of the layout of computing power and network architecture, strengthen regional complementarity, and accelerate the construction of "cloud-side end" synergy, computing storage and transportation integration of computing power infrastructure system.
As of the end of 2022, the total scale of data center racks in use nationwide exceeded 6.5 million standard racks, and the total scale of computing power reached 180EFLOPS, ranking second in the world, with an average growth rate of more than 25% in the past five years; the rapid development of the computing power industry chain, servers, computers and other major computing The energy efficiency of arithmetic infrastructure has been improving steadily, and the PUE of new large and above data centers has been reduced to below 1.3, and the national optimal level has reached 1.08. Green low-carbon technology is widely used, and more than 100 data centers in China have reached green low-carbon level of 4A or above.
"With the rapid development of cloud computing, big data and artificial intelligence, arithmetic power will become the cornerstone and pedestal to lead the new round of industrial change, and will also become the new focus of global strategic competition." Zhao Ce preached. To meet the opportunities and challenges of the development of arithmetic power and to look forward to the "new blue ocean" of digital economy development, Zhao Ce made three suggestions.
First, strengthen infrastructure construction. Reasonably enhance the scale of computing power, optimize the layout of computing power, enrich the structure of computing power, promote the coordinated development of computing power layout and network architecture, strengthen regional complementarity, and accelerate the construction of "cloud-side end" synergy, computing power infrastructure system that integrates computing, storage and transportation.
Second, accelerate technological innovation and upgrade. Promote the development of artificial intelligence and other new generation information technology and computing infrastructure integration, research and build computing power intelligence, flexible scheduling and efficient allocation mechanism, accelerate the SRv6, application-aware network and other innovative network technologies, as well as all-flash memory, high-density design and other advanced data storage technology evolution and upgrade and deployment applications.
Third, guide green and low-carbon development. Fully recognize the role of data centers in promoting high-quality economic and social development, and consider the economic benefits and carbon reduction effects of data centers; reasonably measure the energy consumption and carbon emission level of data centers, vigorously promote green and low-carbon technologies, and improve the overall energy efficiency and green energy use level of computing infrastructure; accelerate the development of green and low-carbon related standards, and continuously carry out green and low-carbon level testing of data centers to help the information and communication industry We will accelerate the development of green and low-carbon standards, continue to carry out green and low-carbon level testing of data centers, and help the information and communication industry achieve the "double carbon" goal.
Fourthly, we foster an enabling application ecology. Support enterprises to further innovate technology models, improve service experience, and accelerate the cultivation of new industries, new industries and new models; lower the threshold of computing power usage, promote the integration of computing power in key areas such as finance, healthcare, industry, energy, education and transportation, and promote the empowerment of digital transformation in thousands of industries.
