[Policy] Zhejiang Province Accelerates the Construction of a New Computing Power Center in the Yangtze River Delta|Idcnova-Media|the gateway to China data center market

The press conference of the "Zhejiang Province Digital Economy Development White Paper (2022)" (hereinafter referred to as the "White Paper") held in Hangzhou on the 3rd August that Zhejiang will speed up the construction of a new computing power center in the Yangtze River Delta and jointly promote the construction of national computing power node in the Yangtze River Delta. It will explore and develop the collaborative innovation application and service platform construction of "East Data and West Computing".

According to the "White Paper", last year Zhejiang accelerated the construction of computing power infrastructure and actively optimized the layout of data centers. By the end of 2021, the province has built a total of 202 data centers of various types, of which 20 large-scale and above-scale data centers have been built and 15 are under construction, ranking among the top in China in terms of quantity and scale.

In February of this year, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments officially approved the establishment of a national hub node for the national integrated computing power network in the Yangtze River Delta region, requiring to establish a data center cluster in the Yangtze River Delta ecological and green integrated development demonstration area, and optimizing computing power layout based on this, It will actively undertake the real-time computing power needs of central cities in the Yangtze River Delta, and build a development pattern of "integrated coordination and radiating the whole region" of computing resources in the Yangtze River Delta region.

JIN Juping, a second-level inspector of the Zhejiang Provincial Development and Reform Commission, said at the press conference that, focusing on the national hub node of the national integrated computing power network, the province will promote the energy efficiency improvement of data centers in an orderly manner, accelerate the construction of the Yangtze River Delta hub node, and explore and promote new computing power. Specific work has been carried out in terms of network construction, optimization of the data center evaluation and management mechanism, and promotion of "strengthening the chain and supplementing the chain" in the data center industry.

For example, in the construction of hub nodes in the Yangtze River Delta, Zhejiang will build new large-scale and above data centers within the cluster, actively explore the construction of "East Data and Western Computing" collaborative innovation applications and service platforms, and prioritize cost and non-real-time computing. The offline business of the company is transferred to the western hub node, which promotes the complementary and coordinated development of computing power between the east and the west.

JIN Juping said that at the same time, Zhejiang will explore and promote the construction of a new computing power network, promote the upgrade of data centers from storage to computing, and evolve from a "cloud + terminal" centralized architecture to a "cloud + edge + terminal" distributed architecture, and Actively develop cloud data centers, promote the application of key technologies such as virtualization, elastic computing, and mass data storage, and improve rack utilization.

In addition, the province will also encourage leading enterprises to speed up the research and development of safety technology and products, build a data center security system, and take the data center construction as an opportunity to attract a group of leading enterprises with strong capability in the digital economy industry to support a group of data centers. It will support the manufacturing enterprises in the fields of power supply equipment, air conditioning equipment, and liquid cooling, and cultivate a group of local data center and cloud service providers, security protection providers, and information system integrators.
