iSoftStone: Strengthening the domestic AI computing power foundation, Huawei's Ascend matrix continues to expand
I'm LongbridgeAI, I can summarize articles.iSoftStone continues to intensify its AI full-stack layout, relying on its subsidiary iSoftStone Huafang to deeply cultivate the Ascend ecosystem, building a domestic closed loop and becoming a core force in the domestic computing power track. The company has released the super strong A860A5 server, equipped with the Atlas350 accelerator card, supporting large model training and inference. The total computing power of the Pingtan Intelligent Computing Center reaches 2300P, while the planned computing power of the Huailai Intelligent Computing Center is 30000P. The public computing power service platform in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has entered trial operation, with computing power utilization rate increased to over 70%
Recently, iSoftStone has been continuously increasing its investment in AI full-stack layout, relying on its subsidiary iSoftStone Huafang to deeply cultivate the Ascend ecosystem. With self-developed servers as the hardware core and a nationwide intelligent computing center network as the computing power support, it is building a domestic closed loop of "chip - server - intelligent computing platform - industry application." The growth momentum of its AI business continues to be released, becoming a core force in the domestic computing power track.
As a dual premium partner of Huawei's Kunpeng and Ascend, iSoftStone Huafang is deeply bound to the Ascend ecosystem, creating a full range of domestic AI server product matrix. In March 2026, iSoftStone Huafang, in collaboration with Huawei, launched the ultra-powerful A860A5 server, equipped with the Atlas350 acceleration card, supporting 10 Ascend acceleration cards in parallel, achieving "nuclear weapon-level" computing power output, suitable for large model training and inference scenarios. At the same time, the Huafang ultra-powerful A8600 server is being deployed on a large scale, equipped with the Ascend 950PR processor, supporting efficient operation of trillion-level large models, and has been implemented in intelligent computing centers in Huailai, Pingtan, and other locations.
In addition, the performance of iSoftStone Huafang's A800TA3 and A800IA3 super-node servers continues to be optimized, with inference speed improved by 35 times compared to traditional solutions, and deployment costs compressed to one-third. Full-stack adaptation of mainstream domestic large models such as DeepSeek-V4 has been completed, achieving deep compatibility of "hardware - framework - model." On the terminal side, the ultra-cool series liquid-cooled workstations and lobster all-in-one machines are iterating simultaneously, with single-machine computing power covering 30T-2240TFP16, meeting the lightweight AI needs of small and medium-sized enterprises.
As iSoftStone's computing power layout accelerates, it covers national computing power hub nodes in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Pingtan, and forms a core support point for the "East Data West Computing" initiative extending southeast. The total computing power of the Pingtan cross-strait integrated intelligent computing center reaches 2300P, fully connected to the national computing power scheduling network in March 2026, becoming one of the largest domestic heterogeneous computing power clusters along the southeast coast. The Huailai intelligent computing center plans for a computing power of 30,000P, with 3.3 billion yuan in private placement funds accelerating construction, focusing on serving leading AI enterprises in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei.
The public computing power service platform in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has entered the trial operation stage, achieving minute-level matching of computing power; the kilowatt-level computing power cluster in the Yangtze River Delta and the Wuxi East China intelligent computing node are being advanced simultaneously, accurately matching regional industrial computing power needs. As of the first quarter of 2026, the company has built and put into operation over 5000P of computing power, with computing power utilization rate exceeding 70%. The Tianyuan intelligent computing platform has achieved unified scheduling of kilowatt-level clusters, constructing a new operational model of "computing power grid."
Financial report data shows that iSoftStone's AI business continues to grow rapidly, with AI-related business revenue reaching 18.466 billion yuan in 2025, accounting for 52.6%; in the first quarter of 2026, AI revenue was 4.514 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 39%, with the proportion rising to 55.6%. AI has become the core growth engine. On the hardware side, iSoftStone Huafang has successively won major procurement projects from China Mobile, China Unicom, and others, with a cumulative winning amount exceeding 2.2 billion yuan, maintaining its position in the first tier of the domestic server market On the ecological level, the company has innovatively launched the "Computing Power Infrastructure + Rui Dong Token + OpenClaw Intelligent Body" operational system, collaborating with Qingwei Intelligent to build a "Ascend + RPU" multi-dimensional heterogeneous computing power foundation, covering all scenarios of cloud training, edge inference, and end-side applications. At the same time, it deeply adapts to domestic large models, promoting the large-scale implementation of AI solutions in industries such as finance, manufacturing, and government affairs, accelerating the deep integration of AI with the real economy.
iSoftStone stated that in the future, it will continue to deepen the "integrated software and hardware, full-stack intelligence" strategy, using Huawei Ascend servers as the computing power foundation, supported by the national intelligent computing network, focusing on three major directions: deepening computing power infrastructure, implementing industry models, and popularizing end-side terminals, continuously strengthening domestic AI full-stack capabilities, and contributing to the construction of a digital China, consolidating its leading position in the global AI industry competition
