In-depth implementation of the “Eastern Data and Western Calculation” project to promote the integrated allocation and operation of various types of regional computing resources

The Central Economic Work Conference emphasized “developing the digital economy.” At present, the application of new generation information technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, mobile Internet, and cloud computing has become popular. The rapid development of the digital economy, its wide range of radiation, and its profound influence are profoundly changing the development process of the economy and society. As a concentrated expression of data processing capabilities, computing power has subsequently become an important productivity.

The National Development and Reform Commission, the National Data Administration and other departments recently jointly issued the “Implementation Opinions on Deeply Implementing the “Eastern Data and Western Computing” Project to Accelerate the Construction of a National Integrated Computing Power Network (hereinfollowing referred to as the “Opinions”). What is the National Integrated Computing Power Network? Who will build it and how will it be built? Our reporter interviewed the relevant person in charge of the National Data Administration.

Question: How to understand the National Integrated Computing Power Network?

Answer: The National Integrated Computing Power Network is a digital infrastructure that uses information network technology as a carrier to promote high proportion and large-scale integrated dispatching and operation of various computing power resources across the country. It has four typical characteristics.

One is intensification. Promote the large-scale construction and intensive development of various computing power resources such as general computing power, intelligent computing power, and super computing power in national hub nodes, and provide a “reservoir” for the national computing power infrastructure.

The second is integration. Create a national integrated computing power dispatching platform system, connect regional, provincial, and municipal level computing power dispatching platforms to promote efficient dispatching of computing power resources across regions and industries.

The third is synergy. Establish a collaborative promotion mechanism with government guidance, market-oriented operation, and participation of the whole society, strengthen model innovation, promote the grid-connected dispatch of various computing resources, promote the coordinated development of computing power and electricity, and actively develop green computing power.

The fourth is valuing. Actively promote the integration of data and computing, and activate the value of data elements and empower the high-quality development of the digital economy through the transmission, processing, and utilization of data resources, data products, and model algorithms.

Question: Who will build the national integrated computing network and how to build it?

Answer: Relying on the coordination mechanism for promoting new infrastructure construction, the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Data Administration, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, together with the Central Cyberspace Administration and the National Energy Administration, have strengthened the overall planning and promotion of the “Eastern Digital and Western Calculation” project and coordinated to solve the construction process We will coordinate the use of government forces and market mechanisms to build a national integrated computing power network system, and timely study and expand the scope of the national hub node starting area.

The “Opinions” propose a series of key tasks, including the integrated layout of general computing power, intelligent computing power, and super computing power, the integrated coordination of computing power in the east, middle and west, and the integrated application of computing power, data, and algorithms to promote computing power. There are five co-ordinators, including the integration of green power and the integrated promotion of computing power development and security.

The “Opinions” make it clear that the rigid constraints of the “Eastern Counting and Western Counting” planning layout will be strengthened to further promote the aggregation of various new computing power to national hub nodes; the “pairing” method will be used to promote the establishment of cross-regional establishments between western national hub nodes and eastern and central cities. The computing power resource scheduling mechanism promotes the formation of large-scale computing power scheduling between the east and the west; it focuses on relying on the national hub node computing power resources, applies innovative algorithms and key technologies, and deepens industry data and computing power coordination; establishes and improves the computing power and power coordination mechanism, Support national hub node areas to use new power system models such as “source grid load storage” to explore distributed new energy to participate in green electricity transactions; comprehensively strengthen the security protection capabilities of national hub nodes, build network and data attack and defense exercise ranges, and computing power network security applications Technology testing ground to build full life cycle safety management and control measures at national hub nodes.

Question: The “Opinions” propose to realize the coordinated advancement of “digitization from the east and calculation from the east”, “digitization from the west and calculation from the west” and “digitization from the east and calculation from the east”. How to understand the relationship between the three?

Answer: “Number from the east and calculate from the east” and “Number from the west and calculate from the west” are the supplement and improvement of “number from the east and calculate from the west”. Due to limitations such as network latency, not all computing power service scenarios are suitable for “Eastern and Western calculations”. The three types of scenarios together constitute a computing power service system oriented to actual business scenarios.

For example, for high-latency business scenarios such as artificial intelligence model training and inference, machine learning, video rendering, offline analysis, storage backup, etc., through the method of “digitizing from the east and calculating from the west”, we can realize the migration of business from the east to the areas with rich scenery and hydropower in the west, and realize the east-west Coordinated development. Low-latency business scenarios such as autonomous driving and securities trading can implement nearby computing through “digital data from the east” and “digital from the west to the west” to achieve intensive utilization of computing power resources in the region and improve the efficiency of computing power usage.

Question: The “Opinions” proposed “computing power synergy” for the first time. How to understand this concept?

Answer: my country’s digital economy is in a period of rapid development, and computing power and electricity are forming a new trend of mutual support and coordinated development. On the one hand, the efficient operation of data centers requires a large amount of power support. On the other hand, the smooth and efficient operation of the power system is also inseparable from the support of computing power.

Coordinating the coordinated layout of computing power and electricity will help promote the consumption of wind, solar and green electricity and the zero-carbon development of data centers, and accelerate the realization of the “double carbon” goal. The “Opinions” innovate the computing power power coordination mechanism, including supporting the use of new power system models such as “source grid load storage” in national hub node areas, exploring the participation of distributed new energy in green electricity transactions, and encouraging data centers to explore mutual recognition and settlement of carbon sinks. .
