Gou Ping, Vice Chairman of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, Guo Ningning, Member of the Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Fuzhou Municipal Party Committee, Jiang Erxiong, Vice Governor of Fujian Province, Shen Zhulin, Deputy Director of the National Bureau of Statistics, and guests such as Academician Zheng Weimin and Wu Shizhong from the Chinese Academy of Engineering attended the high-level forum of the Cloud Ecology Conference. Ke Ruiwen, Chairman of China Telecom, and Liang Baojun, General Manager, attended the meeting.
In his speech, Ke Ruiwen stated that the completion of the "Xirang," "Yunxiao," and "Huiju" platforms within the framework of the National Cloud signifies that Tianyi Cloud has crossed the turning point towards intelligent cloud development, entering a new stage of growth. The development of the National Cloud has paved a path that aligns with its own characteristics. China Telecom will continue to drive technological innovation based on cloud-network integration and digital infrastructure, advocating for self-reliance in technology. Additionally, they will collaborate with partners to explore and engage in open cooperation in cutting-edge technologies such as networking, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence big models.
China Telecom's Deputy General Manager Tang Ke announced the launch of the Intelligent Computing Cloud Capability System. China Telecom is accelerating the development of artificial intelligence by enhancing, optimizing, and upgrading its existing capability system, focusing on the three key elements of AI computing power, algorithms, and data. This system, consisting of computing infrastructure, intelligent computing platform capabilities, Star Atlas large model capabilities, and data element capabilities, features a comprehensive layout covering AI computing power, algorithms, and data, as well as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS platforms. It is characterized by independent research and development, including core software, large model bases, and domestic hardware adaptation, and comprehensive openness and cooperation in research and development, open source, application scenarios, data elements, and sales channels to achieve resource sharing with partners.
China Telecom will continuously empower its system with new capabilities as technology advances: firstly, in terms of intelligent computing platform capabilities, through the upgrading of platforms such as "Xirang," "Yunxiao," and "Huiju," it will enhance computing power scheduling, cluster acceleration, and multi-model service capabilities, providing autonomous and controllable intelligent computing services to meet the needs of large-scale model training and inference. Secondly, in the area of Star Big Model capabilities, based on the iteration of technologies such as "General Big Models, Industry Big Models, and Vertical Application Big Models," it will continuously improve big model capabilities, enhancing the cognitive level and inference performance of language, vision, and multimodal big models. Thirdly, in terms of data element capabilities, through the upgrading of platforms like "Xinghai," "Lingze," and "Yinhe," it will continuously enhance the governance, circulation, and application innovation capabilities of enterprise internal data, government public data, cross-border data, and other data elements, ensuring comprehensive security and reliability.
Aggregating ecosystems to expand industrial cooperation and enrich outcomes to promote mutual benefit and win-win results.
China Telecom actively implements the work requirements for central state-owned enterprises to participate in the construction of the national cloud system, supporting the first state-owned asset supervision cloud service. At this conference, the launch ceremony of the central node of the state-owned asset supervision cloud and the start of the state-owned asset central enterprise intelligent computing cloud scheduling management platform were held. The central node of the state-owned asset supervision cloud, relying on China Telecom's Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Intelligent Computing Center, radiates nationwide, supporting the comprehensive cloudification and intelligent upgrading of various asset supervision application systems, further integrating regulatory business data to help real-time and precise supervision. The state-owned asset central enterprise intelligent computing cloud scheduling management platform, rooted in the Tianyi Cloud Xirang, supports the unified access of various heterogeneous computing powers such as general computing, intelligent computing, and supercomputing. It possesses unified computing power management and scheduling capabilities across service providers, regions, and architectures, realizing a unified network of state-owned asset central enterprise computing power, promoting a better experience and optimal cost matching for state-owned asset central enterprise operations.
At the conference, China Telecom also signed a comprehensive cooperation agreement with China Machinery Industry Group and an intention letter for joint innovation in the coal industry with State Energy Investment Group. They aim to explore more application scenarios and business models together to promote the digital transformation and intelligent upgrade of industries.
The conference showcased a dazzling array of technological innovations, outlining the smart vision of Digital China.
During the event, the Telecom Ecological Experience Hall, as an important part of the 7th Digital China Construction Achievements Exhibition, was concurrently exhibited. The entire venue covers an area of over 5000 square meters and features more than 18 well-known domestic companies in the field of cloud computing.
The Telecommunications Eco-Experience Hall showcases China Telecom's latest technological innovations and best application practices. In the field of big data, exhibits include products such as the Data Asset Management Platform, Full-Stack Data Element Ecological Map, as well as the practical achievements in data element capacity building in Hainan, Anqing, and Wenzhou. In the quantum/security domain, displays feature the "Red Shield" security system, "Tianyan" quantum computing cloud platform, quantum encryption, micro-security large models, trusted communication, and other security service capabilities to meet data security needs across various industry scenarios, establishing an end-to-end security protection system to fortify security defenses for various sectors. Additionally, showcased are China Telecom's public-facing products like direct satellite connections for mobile phones, digital life, and AI terminals, empowering economic and social development effectively.
Concurrently, sub-forums including Smart Cloud, Central Enterprise Smart Cloud, Data Elements, Quantum Information, Government AI+, Industry AI+, Visual Internet of Things, and Security are held to provide a dialogue and exchange platform for government, industry, academia, research, and application sectors, sharing cutting-edge perspectives, exchanging practical experiences, and jointly seeking new momentum and pathways for high-quality development.
