The Shenzhen competition was guided by the Shenzhen Municipal Industry and Information Technology Bureau and the People's Government of Nanshan District, Shenzhen, and co-organized by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., the Shenzhen Financial IT Application Innovation (Xinchuang) Base, Kunpeng Industry Origin Innovation Center (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., PowerLeader Computer System Co., Ltd., UnionTech OS Software Technology Co., Ltd., Kylin Software Co., Ltd., the Shenzhen Software Industry Association, and the Nanshan District Financial Industry Association. A panel of 12 Kunpeng technical experts, industry experts, and market value experts comprehensively evaluated the entries of 123 Kunpeng developer teams, selecting 16 outstanding winning entries, including the entry from GBase, to advance directly to the national semi-finals of the Kunpeng Application Innovation Contest.
GBase's Multi-Model, Multi-State Distributed Database Solution Based on openGauss
Addressing the extreme performance demands of high concurrency, high throughput, and special scenarios in industries such as Internet and finance, GBase launched its distributed database product GBase 8c built on the Kunpeng platform. It has developed a multi-model, multi-state distributed database based on openGauss 3.0, which is also the industry's first distributed database product based on openGauss.
Technical Features
GBase 8c supports multiple storage modes including row-based, column-based, and in-memory, as well as various deployment forms such as standalone, primary-backup, and distributed. It features high performance, high availability, elastic scalability, and strong security. It can be deployed on physical machines, virtual machines, containers, private clouds, and public clouds, providing secure, stable, and reliable data storage and management services for core systems in critical industries, Internet business systems, and government/enterprise business systems.
Multi-Model, Multi-State: Supports row-based, column-based, and in-memory storage modes; supports standalone, primary-backup, and distributed deployment forms. Multiple product forms allow on-demand configuration, flexible and controllable resource investment, and reduced total cost of ownership.
Extreme Performance: Multi-version concurrency control technology; distributed elastic scaling ratio > 0.9; NUMA-aware architecture supports high performance.
Extreme Availability: No single point of failure globally, with 99.999% high availability. Effectively eliminates the risk of system unavailability caused by single-point failures.
Extreme Elasticity: Supports online scaling up and down; linear improvement in compute and storage capacity.
Extreme Security: Supports Chinese national cryptographic algorithms and complies with national information security standards; supports access control, encryption authentication, database auditing, dynamic data masking, and other security features.
Application Cases
GBase 8c has been successfully deployed in multiple projects, including the health code project, a city commercial bank's online lending platform, and an identity authentication platform. It is compatible with most of China's domestic ecosystem, provides a complete solution, fully meets requirements for functionality, PL/SQL management, high availability, security, scalability, O&M management, and monitorability, and delivers superior performance. Moreover, GBase 8c ensures data security and complete technological independence and controllability across the platform.
Looking ahead, GBase will continue to focus on database exploration and innovation, collaborate with upstream and downstream ecosystem partners, actively contribute to open-source ecosystems such as Kunpeng, promote industry-academia-research integration, and drive the long-term prosperity of China's technology ecosystem.
