Joining Forces | GBASE and Inspur Commercial Systems Release GBase HyperSynth Database Appliance

On August 9th, the "YuanBrain China Tour" National Roadshow in Tianjin concluded successfully. During the event, GBASE and Inspur Power Systems jointly launched the GBase HyperSynth Database Appliance. Built on the shared-storage database cluster GBase 8s, this appliance integrates computing, networking, and storage into a unified system. Its "disaggregated storage and compute + shared storage" architecture delivers ultra-high data processing performance and over 99.999% "financial-core-grade" high availability. The integrated delivery model drastically simplifies database infrastructure deployment and O&M by embedding complex software-hardware integration and performance tuning directly into the system. It provides users with a plug-and-play database platform to accelerate time-to-value, empowering digital and intelligent transformation.

A Close Partnership to Build a Database Appliance

With the growing adoption and evolution of digital technologies like cloud computing, big data, and AI, user data volumes are skyrocketing. This places new demands on data storage and processing power while introducing fresh challenges for data privacy and security. As a result, deeply integrated software-hardware database appliances are increasingly favored for their advantages in performance optimization, flexible deployment, efficient scaling, and extreme simplicity in operations.

As a leading Chinese database provider, GBASE has partnered with Inspur Power Systems, a premier Chinese brand in mission-critical computing. By combining their respective strengths in critical computing infrastructure and core foundational software, the two companies have jointly developed the GBase HyperSynth Database Appliance. The goal is to deliver a solution-oriented database product with an advanced architecture that is highly convenient, ultra-reliable, high-performance, and easy to scale and maintain—all with high compatibility and security. This single architecture is designed to meet diverse database application scenarios, enabling enterprises to deeply mine data value and succeed in the era of business intelligence.

The GBase HyperSynth Database Appliance comes with pre-integrated hardware and software, both optimized for database management. The tight component integration results in higher data throughput and lower response latency. Its advanced unified platform architecture supports mixed deployment of heterogeneous and multi-version databases, with a built-in high availability solution that enables sub-second fault detection and automatic failover without third-party components. The whole-rack delivery model simplifies hardware integration work by over 80%, and with pre-validated and pre-tuned solutions, one-stop rapid delivery slashes deployment time by 65%, significantly accelerating business rollout. Furthermore, the GEM centralized management platform offers unified management and intelligent O&M capabilities, enhancing operational efficiency and collaboration while reducing costs.

Adopting a unified platform architecture of "disaggregated storage and compute + shared storage," the GBase HyperSynth delivers highly reliable, high-performance complex transaction processing and real-time data analytics. It supports rapid deployment and on-demand scaling, allowing users to flexibly and dynamically adjust the allocation of compute, storage, and other resources based on business needs. With 24/7 non-stop operation, it ensures the continuous and stable running of core business systems across industries. Its centralized O&M management platform is smarter and more efficient, enabling unified monitoring, configuration, and maintenance of multi-database environments.

Deep Optimization for Smarter, More Efficient Data Management

Cui Zhiwei, General Manager of GBASE's GBase 8s Product Division, stated that Inspur Power Systems' mission-critical servers are renowned in China for their unique design characteristics. The deep collaboration between GBASE and Inspur Power Systems to launch the GBase HyperSynth Database Appliance represents a groundbreaking attempt in their ecosystem partnership. This solution enables the GBase 8s database to deliver superior data processing capabilities and a better overall data experience for users.

Li Changwen, General Manager of Inspur Power Systems' Product Marketing Division, noted that as a leading Chinese database provider, GBASE has focused on the R&D and promotion of Chinese databases for two decades. Its portfolio, covering the full data management lifecycle and technology stack, has been adopted by tens of thousands of users across 33 provincial-level regions in China, in sectors including finance, telecom, government, energy, and transportation. Moreover, GBASE's database products are sold in 34 countries and regions, including the US, Brazil, and Mexico. The jointly developed, pre-integrated, and pre-validated end-to-end database appliance solution will further amplify the acceleration effect of industry-leading critical computing power on core foundational software, fully unlocking the potential of data as a production factor.

Through joint design and deep optimization, the GBase HyperSynth achieves highly efficient synergy between software and hardware, making data management smarter and more efficient. In the database performance TPC-C benchmark, the GBase HyperSynth demonstrated twice the performance of an x86 platform, a clear performance advantage. It supports both centralized deployment and shared-storage HA deployment, along with industry-leading high-availability cluster technologies such as SSC, HAC, RHAC, and ER. Various architectural combinations can build geo-redundant disaster recovery or active-active city-wide clusters, with sub-second fault detection and automatic failover delivering over 99.999% database availability.

In terms of security, the appliance has passed multiple standards and received relevant certifications, including Level 4 of China's Multi-Level Protection Scheme (MLPS). It provides features such as data confidentiality, access control, anti-attack measures, and user behavior tracking. It supports both data-at-rest and in-transit encryption, with multiple encryption methods including software and hardware security module-based encryption, and supports both international standard and Chinese state cryptographic algorithms. The platform adheres to the principle of separation of duties. Platform security is further guaranteed through multi-dimensional measures, including user permission control, a multi-copy protection mechanism, platform operation log auditing, a fully redundant design, automatic management node backups, multiple password policies, and a comprehensive alerting mechanism, providing solid protection for user data.
