GBase 8c, the third-generation intelligent distributed database, named an "Innovation Achievement" at the 3rd China International Software Development Conference

From April 24 to 25, 2024, the 3rd China International Software Development Conference and the 40th anniversary of the China Software Industry Association were successfully held at the China National Convention Center in Beijing. The conference focused on fundamental software technologies, open-source software, and generative AI's transformative impact across industries, explored the profound influence of data elements and future industries, reviewed the 40-year evolution of China's software industry, and brought together dozens of academicians from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, experts, scholars, and over one hundred entrepreneurs to share insights, with more than 1,000 software enterprise representatives attending and exhibiting.

The conference adopted a "1+2+3+4+N" format, i.e., one opening ceremony & summit forum + two exhibitions + three themed meetings + N specialized forums. On the morning of April 24, an Innovation Achievement release was held concurrently, and GBase 8c, the new-generation intelligent distributed database, was named an "Innovation Achievement" of the 3rd China International Software Development Conference.

Zhu Hui, Pre-sales Manager at GBASE, delivered a keynote speech titled "Evolving Rapidly, Standing Out — GBase 8c: The Third-Generation Distributed Database" at the Innovation Achievement release session, detailing the latest achievements in GBase distributed database technology.

Zhu Hui elaborated: GBASE is among the first independent database product and service providers in China to pass the "Security and Reliability Assessment". With two decades of deep expertise in core database technologies, the company has built a product and solution portfolio covering the full data management lifecycle and the entire technology stack. GBase databases are deployed at scale in key sectors such as finance, telecommunications, government, energy, and transportation, with over 96,000 nodes deployed and managing more than 500 PB of data.

He added that China's distributed databases have evolved from first-generation sharding and distributed middleware architectures, to second-generation native distributed databases, and now to the third-generation intelligent distributed database — GBase 8c. GBase 8c is a multi-model, multi-modal third-generation intelligent distributed database. By integrating AI for intelligent optimization, intelligent O&M, and intelligent security, GBase 8c achieves database intelligence, delivering high performance, high availability, elastic scaling, and strong security. It supports multiple storage modes including row store, column store, and in-memory; diverse deployment topologies such as standalone, primary-standby, and distributed; and multiple compatibility modes such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. 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 applications to meet various scenarios.

Through the application of AI technology in the database product, GBase 8c significantly enhances user experience in intelligent optimization, O&M, and security. Moreover, GBase 8c's integration of centralized and distributed architectures, as well as the convergence of transaction processing and online analytical processing (HTAP), can significantly reduce the total cost of ownership.

The recognition of GBase 8c as an "Innovation Achievement" at the 3rd China International Software Development Conference is an authoritative endorsement from the China Software Industry Association of the technical strength and service level of GBase databases. Going forward, GBASE will continue to strengthen independent R&D of its databases, keep innovating core technologies, and, while contributing to the vigorous growth of China's software industry, drive high-quality digital transformation with improved efficiency and deeper enablement through data applications across industries.
