Record-Breaking Performance: GBase Aces CAICT Database Benchmark with Historic Results
On June 24, 2021, the 2021 Big Data Industry Summit was held in Beijing. General Data Technology Co., Ltd. (GBase) successfully passed the 'Large-Scale Specialized Benchmark for Distributed Analytical Database Performance' and the 'Large-Scale Specialized Benchmark for Distributed Analytical Database Foundational Capabilities,' fully demonstrating its profound technical strength and superior product performance.
GBase's core product, GBase 8a, recently passed CAICT's foundational capability benchmark and massive-scale specialized benchmark with a 4,096-node cluster (for details, see >>> "GBase 8a MPP Cluster Passes CAICT Foundational Capability Benchmark with 4,096 Nodes"). This 4,096-node deployment is the world's largest distributed analytical database cluster, a highly representative and competitive figure on the international stage, powerfully proving that China's homegrown infrastructure software has evolved from merely usable to truly effective.
Hosted by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT), the conference focused on next-generation IT innovations and data technology advancements, exploring implementation models for secure data circulation. The Big Data Industry Summit has been held for five consecutive years, establishing itself as an authoritative, high-level platform supporting the national big data strategy and serving as a comprehensive showcase for industry achievements.
