Flying Elephant Network NewsDuring the "2024 China Academy of Information and Communications Technology ICT In-depth Observation Report", Li Wei, deputy director of the Institute of Cloud Computing and Big Data of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, said in an interview with a reporter from Feixiang.com: "At present, the computing power interconnection system that the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology is studying and establishing has been continuously evolved and improved, and has basically realized the interconnection of cross-service providers, cross-architecture, and cross-region, so that computing power can truly become a service like hydropower, so that users can achieve "one-point access and full calculation". ”
The interconnection of computing power makes computing power as convenient and inclusive as hydropower
The scale of China's computing infrastructure continues to expand, ranking second in the world. However, computing resources are scattered, there are many computing power providers, showing fragmented characteristics, computing power user needs and market computing resources cannot be accurately matched, the supply side computing power resources are idle, and demand-side users "can't find" suitable resources, and the architecture is not suitable for use.
In response to these pain points, the interconnection of computing power combines the existing Internet capabilities, through the establishment of a set of unified resource codes for computing power and the formation of high-performance transmission protocol interfaces that are compatible with standards, to realize the standardized interconnection of computing power of different subjects, different architectures and different regions, and to solve the problem of "not being found" computing power, supplemented by computing technology upgrades such as orchestration and scheduling systems, computing frameworks, and elastic networks, and enhancement of network technology capabilities, so as to realize the efficient flow and interconnection of applications and data, and solve the problems of "slow transmission" and "poor use" of computing power.
According to Li Wei, the computing power interconnection system that the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology is currently studying and establishing has been continuously evolved and improved, and has basically realized the interconnection of cross-service providers, cross-architecture and cross-region, so that computing power will truly become a service like hydropower, so that users can achieve "one-point access and full calculation".
The construction of computing power interconnection takes the unified resource code of computing power as the starting point, and builds a multi-level computing power interconnection platform backbone system based on "one set of coding, one set of standards, and one set of open source implementation" to provide users with computing resources of the whole network. A set of encoding, based on DNS, proposes a unified coding rule for computing power, which provides a unified description for computing resources to be queried and conversationalA set of standards has established a series of standards for computing power interconnection capabilities, which standardize the application definition, computing power perception, transmission protocol, orchestration and scheduling, computing framework and other core capabilities of the computing power interconnection systemA set of open source implementations, initiating open source projects such as CNCOS, ODPU, OGPU, and OneRDMA, breaking through the key technical bottlenecks of computing power interconnection and interoperability in the direction of computing network cloud orchestration and scheduling, transmission protocol interfaces, and computing frameworks.
Today, the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology has jointly built a computing power interconnection platform with local management bureaus, telecom operators, cloud service providers and other computing power participants, which has verified the overall feasibility of computing power interconnection. At the same time, the construction of computing power interconnection platforms has been carried out in Beijing, Chongqing, Jiangsu and other places, and the platform has been connected to 14 computing service providers and has gone through the process of friendly user verification and trial commercialization.
Li Wei said that a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is reshaping the global economic structure, and computing power, as a new quality of productivity, is a solid foundation to support the development of the digital economy. The development of computing power has promoted the upgrading of technology, the innovation and development of applications, and the continuous growth of industrial scale. The interconnection of computing power will promote computing power to become as convenient and inclusive as hydropower, realize intelligent perception, real-time discovery, and on-demand access of computing resources, and directly empower end users in the form of services.
With the deep integration of IT and CT, the Internet of computing power will move towards thousands of industries
Li Wei said: "The Internet of computing power is the future form of computing power interconnection into a network, forming a large market of computing power standardization and servitization, as well as a logical network of computing power interconnection and flexible calling, and is a new type of infrastructure formed by the Internet to enhance the ability and upgrade the system for computing power application and scheduling needs." ”
In the future, with the deep integration of IT and CT, the computing power Internet will move towards thousands of industries, enabling a variety of "killer" computing power application services such as large models, cloud rendering, cloud, and audio codec, incubating new formats and models such as computing power scheduling service providers and regional industry computing power interconnection platform operators, opening up users, scheduling, and providing multi-party connections, and revitalizing the idle public computing resources in society.
In addition, in the key industrial ecological role, regional industry computing power interconnection platform operators provide computing power identification analysis, computing network parameter scheduling, identity authentication management, unified measurement and clearing and other services, computing power scheduling service providers connect user needs, access to the computing power interconnection platform, and provide users with the "last mile" of computing resource services, and computing power providers access the regional industry computing power interconnection platform to provide users with the "first kilometer" of computing resources.
