Database × Chip | GBASE and Hygon Information Joint Solution

2023-04-24

Databases are the core software of information systems, managing underlying system resources while supporting upper-layer applications. Chips serve as the computing engine that powers databases, and CPU performance directly determines the upper limit of a data management system.

Hygon Information Technology, a leader in advanced microprocessors, is dedicated to the R&D, design, and sales of high-end general-purpose processors. Leveraging significant advantages in performance, ecosystem, and security, along with tailored product portfolios for different market segments, Hygon chips are fully compatible with mainstream international operating systems and application software. They have achieved large-scale deployment in critical industries such as telecommunications, finance, internet, education, and transportation. General Data Technology Co., Ltd. (GBASE), a leading Chinese database provider, has built a joint solution based on Hygon microprocessors. After rigorous testing, the key performance metrics have delivered impressive results, and the solution has been implemented in multiple projects, earning widespread customer recognition.

Full Product Compatibility

All GBase database products are now fully compatible and optimized with Hygon’s three core processor lines—the Hygon 3000, 5000, and 7000 series—delivering computing power support and enabling the “Store, Compute, Use” approach to data asset governance for key industries including finance, telecom, energy, transportation, and the internet.

Stable Performance Upgrades

GBase database products deployed on Hygon CPUs have delivered impressive results across multiple benchmarks. By combining GBase's multi-instance deployment with the multi-NUMA and multi-core strengths of Hygon processors, the solution fully harnesses CPU resources to achieve 100%–200% higher performance than traditional deployments. As memory capacity scales, system performance continues to improve. Today, the joint “GBase + Hygon” solution is in production for major projects at Agricultural Bank of China, China Mobile, and others. The full-stack architecture ensures both stability and performance, providing agile support and financial-grade high availability for massive workloads and unpredictable demand spikes.

Database & Chip: A Power Duo

Going forward, GBase and Hygon will deepen collaboration across both product and market dimensions. This includes optimizing database compiler parsing capabilities tailored to Hygon's multi-core CPU architecture, and continuously promoting joint solutions in key sectors such as finance and telecommunications. With GBase showcasing an exciting database future and Hygon illuminating the vast galaxy of chips, each will excel in its domain, jointly driving the prosperity of China's digital industry.
