China News Service, Jinan, July 30th (Liu Yuying and Sun Tingting) The 2022 China Computing Conference opened in Jinan on the 30th.
Zhang Yunming, Vice Minister of China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that the scale of China's computing power industry has grown rapidly, with an average growth rate of more than 30% in the past five years, ranking second in the world in terms of computing power.
Zhang Yunming said that computing power has become a new productivity after heat and electricity. For a period of time in the future, computing power will drive the development process of digital industrialization and enhance the innovation of new-generation information and communication technologies such as 5G, big data, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing. Activeness, play a leading role in radiation, and computing power will help the digital transformation and upgrading of the industry.
Zhang Yunming said that by the end of June 2022, the number of 5G base stations will reach 1.854 million, the number of 5G mobile phone users will exceed 450 million, all prefecture-level cities will be fully built into optical network cities, the number of gigabit fiber users will exceed 61 million, and construction will start. A number of "East and West" trunk optical cables.
The total scale of data center racks in use exceeds 5.9 million standard racks, the scale of servers is about 20 million, and the total scale of computing power exceeds 150 EFlops.
China's computing power industry chain continues to improve, and an internationally competitive computing power industry ecosystem including computing power facilities, computing power platforms, and computing power services has initially formed. A number of computing power platforms with demonstration effects, new data centers and Industrial bases have landed one after another.
According to the calculation of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, in 2021, the scale of the core computing power industry will exceed 1.5 trillion yuan (RMB, the same below), of which the cloud computing market will exceed 300 billion yuan.
At present, computing power is widely used in digital government, industrial Internet, smart medical care, distance education, financial technology, aerospace, cultural media and other fields.
Zhang Yunming said that in the next step, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will focus on four "high-quality", one is to consolidate the foundation of empowerment, guide the implementation of strategies, and high-quality layout; the second is to adhere to innovation-driven, and promote high-quality research and development of core technologies; The third is to enrich integrated applications , strengthen the high-quality supply of inclusive computing power; fourth, improve the low-carbon system and promote the green and high-quality development of computing power.
