Data-Driven Smart Transportation Innovation Ecosystem: GBASE Attends the 9th China Smart Rail Transit Conference

From April 10-12, 2025, the 9th China Smart Rail Transit Conference, themed "**Starting Anew, Advancing with Quality**," was successfully held in Guangzhou. As a leading domestic database service provider in the rail transit sector, GBASE Technology was invited to attend, showcasing a full stack of independently controlled database products and sharing innovative practices of how the GBase database supports the digital transformation of transportation users at the "Digitalization and Integrated Communication Forum." This conference was co-hosted by the National Engineering Research Center for Urban Rail Transit System Safety and Operation Assurance and RT Rail Transit. More than 1,500 leaders and experts from research institutions, 40 city owners, 15 design institutes, and over 100 integrators & equipment manufacturers gathered to explore advanced smart solutions and successful application cases in the urban rail transit industry, discussing high-quality and sustainable development strategies. **GBASE Database Lays the Foundation for a New Ecosystem in Smart Transportation Digital Transformation and Data Security** At the concurrently held "Digitalization and Integrated Communication Forum," Wang Dingzhuo, Technical Director of the Energy and Transportation Department at GBASE, delivered a keynote speech titled "**GBASE Database Lays the Foundation for a New Ecosystem in Smart Transportation Digital Transformation and Data Security**." Wang Dingzhuo highlighted how the high-performance, highly reliable, secure, and easily extendable GBase database has become a solid foundation for users' digital transformation and data security construction in the smart transportation field. It provides integrated technical services in data computation, storage, and management, ensuring the stable operation of business systems and efficient analysis and processing of massive business data. In the rail transit sector, the GBase database has been applied to the AFC automatic fare collection systems, clearing centers, multi-line centers, internet ticketing systems, integrated surveillance systems, and operation command centers of multiple domestic lines. The launch of its embedded version has achieved lightweight and convenient deployment for onboard systems. Currently, the GBase database is deployed on over 70 lines across 27 cities in China, including Shenzhen, Chongqing, Xi'an, Chengdu, Zhengzhou, Hangzhou, Shenyang, and Jinan, providing efficient, convenient, and stable metro services to citizens. On the afternoon of April 11, a product launch event was held to showcase the latest achievements and technological advancements in the urban rail transit field. GBASE introduced three innovative products: the vector database GBase GCVD, the integrated GBase GCDW & HD data warehouse, and the GBase appliance. The vector database supports large model technology, allowing the construction of a proprietary knowledge base locally and achieving smart operations and maintenance through AI+DB. The integrated solution combines cloud-native data warehouse and data lake products to build a cloud-native big data system, promoting the integrated collaboration of data lakes and data warehouses. The database appliance enhances urban rail operational efficiency and cost optimization with a "ready-to-use" model. During the exhibition, GBASE showcased its fully independently developed GBase database products and scenario-specific solutions for the transportation sector. The widespread application and rich service experience of GBASE across various city metro lines captured the attention of attendees. As the urban rail transit industry in China undergoes a crucial phase of digital and intelligent upgrading, moving steadily towards enhanced management efficiency, increased operational reliability, and improved service quality, GBASE remains committed to deepening the independent research and development of core technologies. It aims to strengthen the integration and application of databases with cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, injecting "data" momentum into the high-quality development of the rail industry, ensuring safer, more convenient, and smarter travel.
