Qinzhou Huawei Cloud Town, China's first 5G Huawei digital town, was launched by Chinese tech giant Huawei in Qinzhou, Southwest China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region on May 7, marking that a big data industrial cluster has taken shape in the city.
Boasting unique advantages in its location, transportation services, platforms, industries, and pathways, Qinzhou was selected to be among one of the pilot areas of China's national smart cities, accelerating the development of its big data industry.
Qinzhou Huawei Cloud Town is now home to a number of big data projects, including an education cloud, a medical imaging cloud, and the China-ASEAN Port Logistics Information Center. It has attracted many relevant enterprises in its efforts to establish an industrial ecosphere centering on big data services for government, enterprises, and mobile apps.
To date, a "one cloud, two bases, and two centers" platform architecture has been formed in the town, and more than 50 enterprises are expected to settle in it by 2020.
As a node city along the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor, Qinzhou has focused on the development of its big data industry with the policy support of the central and regional government, as well as the technical guidance provided by Huawei, in order to set up an innovative and ecological industrial chain of the digital economy, according to Wang Xiongchang, member of the Standing Committee of the CPC Qinzhou Municipal Committee.
Qinzhou is expected to promote the big data-driven development strategy to accelerate the optimization and upgrading of the city's industrial structure, injecting impetus into the construction of the China-ASEAN Information Harbor, Wang added.
Xia Jun, vice president of Huawei's Digital Government Business Unit, said that Huawei will cooperate with the Qinzhou government to speed up the development of the China-ASEAN (Qinzhou) Huawei Cloud Computing and Big Data Center, offering one-stop infrastructural services for Qinzhou Huawei Cloud Town.
