en.Wedoany.com Reported - The China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), in collaboration with the Computing Power Industry Development Alliance, launched the "Computing Power Super Silver Ecosystem Co-building Plan" on July 8. This plan aims to implement the requirements of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's "Notice on Carrying Out Special Actions to Empower Small and Medium-sized Enterprises with Inclusive Computing Power," with the goal of improving the accessibility and ease of use of computing power while reducing computing costs for SMEs. The plan will leverage the China Computing Power Platform to explore two innovative service models: "Computing Power Supermarket" and "Computing Power Bank."
The plan focuses on three core objectives. First, by establishing standards, it will develop operational norms and industry standards for the "Computing Power Supermarket" and "Computing Power Bank" models, providing a replicable practical blueprint for the construction of a national integrated computing power network. Second, it aims to build mechanisms, exploring locally distinctive yet shareable, replicable, and scalable operational mechanisms for computing power supermarkets and deposit-loan rules for computing power banks, thereby establishing a foundational institutional framework for the market-based allocation of computing resources. Finally, it seeks to promote inclusivity by implementing a service model of "on-demand access, cross-period scheduling, and credit support," lowering the barrier to computing power usage for SMEs through flexible billing, credit scoring, and pay-after-use mechanisms.
Under the "Computing Power Supermarket" model, the plan will build upon or utilize existing computing platforms to facilitate the commoditized display, standardized pricing, online trading, and automated delivery of certified "computing-model-data-application" resources. The platform will adopt flexible billing methods such as per "card-hour," "core-hour," and Token-based pricing, supporting SMEs in on-demand procurement and pay-as-you-go usage to reduce upfront investment thresholds. Additionally, it will explore mechanisms for classifying and grading computing products, quality assessment, and user reviews to enhance transparency in supply-demand matching and transaction efficiency.
The "Computing Power Bank" will establish a simulated operational mechanism for "deposit-billing-withdrawal-credit" of computing resources, encouraging SMEs to deposit idle computing power and enabling flexible withdrawal through cross-regional and cross-period scheduling. This mechanism will also study value distribution models based on tiered settlement according to computing contribution levels and explore the construction of a computing power credit scoring system, offering pay-after-use computing services to enterprises with higher credit scores.
In his speech on the same day, Luan Xiaowei, Vice President of China Telecom, stated that artificial intelligence is increasingly penetrating industries such as manufacturing, government services, and finance, comprehensively entering various sectors and households, and accelerating the reshaping of the industrial landscape. China Telecom will actively embrace this comprehensive and historic transformation, continuously improving the integrated system of computing power, platforms, data, large models, and intelligent agents, and driving the transformation of enterprise operations from traditional traffic-based management to Token-based operations.
