Recently, the "Golden Tripod Award," a major award at the 2020 China International Financial Exhibition, was announced. As a leading Chinese database provider, GBase 8s, the transactional database management system from General Data Technology, leveraging years of technological innovation and proven commercial cases in the financial industry, gained unanimous recognition from the expert judges, stood out from numerous products, and won the "Outstanding Basic Software and Hardware Award for IT Application Innovation Products of the Year."

With 28 years of development, the China International Financial Exhibition has become an effective platform for showcasing China's financial development achievements, publicizing the results of financial reform, promoting innovation in the financial industry, and driving the deep integration of finance and technology. As one of the key activities of the exhibition, the "Golden Tripod Award" aims to recognize high-end, high-quality technologies, products, and outstanding service outcomes.

In recent years, driven by changes in the regulatory environment, the deepening of fintech applications, and Internet business innovation, the demand for data processing across various operations in the financial sector—including banking, insurance, and securities—has continued to grow, triggering a new wave of IT infrastructure construction. The financial industry is calling for data management systems that are highly secure, highly available, cross-platform, and deliver reliable performance.

The award-winning GBase 8s is a mature and stable, hundred-terabyte-scale, financial-grade secure transactional database independently developed by Tianjin General Data Technology Co., Ltd. (General Data Technology). It supports shared-storage clusters, two-site three-center deployment, and is fully compatible with mainstream Chinese chips, servers, operating systems, and other software/hardware. It features high security, high performance, high availability, transparent encryption, comprehensive management tools, and low total cost of ownership (TCO).

GBase 8s is suitable for OLTP application scenarios; for key, core business systems in industries such as finance and telecommunications; for information systems in industries with high information security requirements, including public security, government, and defense; and for operational and management information systems in large enterprises. It can replace foreign database products in more than 80% of use cases.

In core banking systems, it is used to store core data such as customers, deposits, loans, payments, funds, general ledger, and channel data, involving business data processing needs like internal accounting, payment and settlement, and central bank regulatory reporting. GBase 8s fully meets the requirements of data consistency, security, high performance, and high concurrency for these operations.

As a mature and stable secure transactional database, GBase 8s has already achieved large-scale deployment in core business systems across critical fields, including the People's Bank of China, Industrial Bank, Bank of Luzhou, Beijing Rural Commercial Bank, State Grid Corporation of China, 12306, the State Information Center, the Yalong River Hydropower Station, and a national defense department.

Since its establishment in 2004, General Data Technology has been dedicated to database software products and services, with over a decade of deep engagement in the financial industry. As one of the first Chinese database vendors to enter core financial systems, the company has grown alongside the digitalization of China's financial sector, serving hundreds of financial customers. Moving forward, General Data Technology will remain customer-centric, further strengthen its technology and R&D foundation, and strive to become the most trusted database product supplier for its users.
