In order to promote cooperation between the two parties, Tu Yang, General Manager of Jinan Supercomputing Company, and his delegation recently visited the China Bester Group’s headquarters in Wuhan. The two parties conducted in-depth discussions and exchanges on cooperation related to the promotion of computing resources, the construction and integration of computing network, the construction of heterogeneous scheduling platforms, technology research and application, investment and financing and other aspects.

 

Communication on Cooperation at China Bester Group’s Headquarters in Wuhan.

 

Currently, China Bester Group is actively developing its computing power business. The construction of Hefei Intelligent Computing Center is in full swing. Qinghai Sanjiangyuan National Big Data Computing Power Platform will be available for commercial use soon. The Wudang Cloud Valley Computing Power Platform is also stepping up its deployment. As one of the first national supercomputing centers, Jinan Supercomputing Center is at the forefront of our country's computing power development. The integrated heterogeneous computing service platform based on the concept of the National Computing Power Network is currently in a leading position domestically.
