Shangtang technology Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) Artificial Intelligence Computing Center, which has attracted much attention in the AI industry, recently announced its official launch.
In the era of digital economy, computing power has become the foundation of everything. Today, the "aircraft carrier" with Chinese AI computing power sets sail from the port, which also makes the mixed reform of state-owned enterprises enabled by science and technology more brilliant.
set sail from the port
On January 24, the lighting ceremony of Shangtang Artificial Intelligence Computing Center was successfully held in Lingang Industrial Zone, the core area of Dongfang core port, marking the official commissioning of Shangtang technology Artificial Intelligence Computing Center (AIDC) from now on.
It is reported that AIDC of Shangtang in Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) will become one of the largest artificial intelligence computing centers in Asia. On the same day, Shangtang AIDC was awarded the title of "Shanghai artificial intelligence integration enabling center" by Shanghai Economic and Information Technology Commission.
According to public data, in 2014, Professor Tang Xiaoou of the Chinese University of Hong Kong led the team to publish deep id series face recognition algorithms. In October of that year, Shangtang technology was officially born and positioned as an artificial intelligence software company focusing on computer vision technology and enabling all industries. Previously, when Shangtang technology landed in Hong Kong stocks, it was clear that its original underlying algorithm platform was the company's core competitive advantage.
If artificial intelligence is a bright gem at the top of the science and technology pyramid, then the strong and huge computing power is the solid foundation of the tower. As one of the "Ai four dragons", Shangtang technology needs to build a large number of artificial intelligence technologies in image processing on the basis of huge computing power.
"AIDC is an open, large-scale and low-carbon advanced computing infrastructure." The relevant person in charge told reporters that as an important part and physical bearing of the computing infrastructure layer in the "sense core Shangtang AI device", its designed peak computing power is as high as 3740 petaflops (tens of billions of floating-point operations per second), which will become one of the largest artificial intelligence computing centers in Asia at that time.
"high quality and low price" and "low carbon"
At present, as an important part of the new infrastructure, all kinds of data computing centers are springing up everywhere. However, "lack of industrial supporting facilities", "high operation cost" and "high energy consumption" have become urgent problems to be solved in many regional computing centers.

Shangtang's computing center has the advantage of "low price", and it is more competitive in commercialization.
According to the relevant person in charge, from the perspective of advantages, the first is the center's low computing power application cost and large-scale elastic computing power, which will greatly reduce the training cost of smart chips and large-scale model data. Secondly, the computing center also has the world's leading security performance to ensure multi-layer protection from storage to computing.
Most importantly, it is also a "low-carbon" computing center. It is understood that the center has taken a variety of energy optimization measures from the aspects of energy, technology and management. The average annual pue is optimized to 1.28. The closer this index is to 1, the less energy consumption and higher efficiency of non core equipment. Overall, the total power consumption of the center is about 10% lower than the average level of other data centers in China.
technology enabled mixed reform of state-owned enterprises
Recently, Shangtang technology has frequently interacted with Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) . On January 21, Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) announced that Pujiang company, the concerted action of Lingang asset management, the controlling shareholder of the company, transferred 1.33% of the company's shares to Ningbo Qianshi enterprise management partnership (limited partnership) through block trading.
The reporter noted that tianyancha data show that behind Ningbo Qianshi is the wholly-owned platform of artificial intelligence Unicorn Shangtang technology. According to the shareholders of the company in the first three quarters, Shangtang is likely to become the top ten shareholders of Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) through this transfer. This shareholding also fired the starting gun for the innovative development of mixed reform of Shanghai state-owned enterprises in 2022.
"High tech is a typical technology intensive, talent intensive and capital intensive industry." A market person pointed out that in this context, policy support is particularly important. "The strong combination of Shangtang technology and Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) can form an effective complementary role, and the effect of science and technology empowerment will be gradually reflected in the future."
Relevant data show that by 2030, China will reach the world leading level in AI theory, technology and application, and become the world's main AI innovation center. At that time, the scale of China's artificial intelligence core industry will exceed 1 trillion yuan, driving the scale of related industries to exceed 10 trillion yuan.
The huge ship cannot sail without the sea, and the port provides a place for Shangtang's computer center. As a new generation of super large-scale AI general infrastructure, in the future, the center will build an intelligent base for the digital transformation of AI in the fields of economy, life and governance, and accelerate the digital transformation of the whole industry of industry, scientific research and urban management.
According to the relevant person in charge of Shanghai Lingang Holdings Co.Ltd(600848) , at present, the New Lingang district has built an artificial intelligence industry base and an unmanned test base for sea, land and air. It has made full efforts in the introduction of benchmarking enterprises, the construction of functional platforms, the construction of application scenarios and other dimensions, forming a complete industrial chain of "algorithm chip application enabling", which has become the base for the industrial upgrading of artificial intelligence in Shanghai Production capacity improvement and technological leapfrogging are hot spots for development.
