Leading the Charge in the AIGC Era: Chayora’s Innovative Approach to Data Center Design


Only the ones that are adaptable to change may survive the changing environment.


As the computing power provides fresh impetus for transformative changes across industries, the growth of AIGC (Artificial Intelligence-Generated Content) and large model applications are accelerating. In the “high computing power” era of data centers, success isn't just about stacking up computing resources. It’s also about embracing technological innovation and optimizing design, construction, and operations from multiple angles.


As the Chinese partner for global hyper-scale data center provider EdgeConneX, Chayora boasts over a decade of expertise in building and managing hyper-scale data centers in China. How does Chayora address industry demands and earn customer trust through technological advancements?


Breaking Through the “Computing Power Ceiling” for Large Models算力天花板”


As AIGC and large models take center stage, the role of computing power becomes crucial—but it also faces significant limitations.


In the era of large models, the data volume will increase with the increase in parameters, leading to higher demand for computing power. This escalating need for computing resources will determine how far the current AI revolution can advance. As the competition in the large model industry intensifies, the demand for computing power is growing exponentially. Therefore, it is imperative to solve the problem of computing power limitation.


The value of data center shall be reflected upon when it comes to the development of computing power. From a user’s perspective, they need to consider what factors shall be evaluated when selecting a sustainable data center partner. When choosing a data center service provider, naturally you want to look for one with expertise in data center operations and a track record in meeting business needs, including reliability, availability, security, performance, cost-effectiveness, credibility, support, scalability and compliance with regulations.

Advancing Energy-Efficient and Intelligent Data Centers


In the digital age, data centers face the challenge of evolving from merely “well-constructed” to “well-operated”. As the demand for computing power increases, data centers must focus on high-quality development to keep up. The two main areas of focus are high-density computing and green, low-carbon solutions.


Traditionally, data centers have relied on general computing resources. However, with the growing demand for high-performance computing, AI computing, and edge computing, there’s a shift towards supercomputing, intelligent computing, and edge data centers. This shift is driving a diversification in computing power requirements.


High-density computing, a key method for achieving efficiency in data centers, integrates a large number of processors and storage devices into compact spaces. This approach enhances computing and storage capabilities and is increasingly used in fields like large-scale image processing, data mining, and artificial intelligence. Chayora build-to-suit solution meet specific customer needs by considering data center space, power, and network resources. This approach optimizes resource utilization, providing flexible and expandable data center architecture. By thoroughly understanding each customer's business needs, Chayora tailors the planning of space, power, and network resources to ensure flexibility and room for growth.


Additionally, Chayora has its own unique understanding and thinking for promoting energy conservation and reducing consumption in data centers. As a leading infrastructure developer, Chayora is dedicated to creating a “carbon neutral” data center platform in China. With a strong focus on green energy and efficiency, Chayora is not only addressing energy conservation but also providing reliable solutions for top domestic Internet and online businesses to expand effectively.


Chayora employs innovative pre-cooling technology in its cooling systems, which extends natural cooling time and reduces the data center’s Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) design value to 1.19. The company is also exploring advanced solutions like liquid cooling and plans to implement pilot projects based on customer needs in future data center designs and constructions. In terms of construction, Chayora excels in delivering data centers quickly while maintaining a 100% customer retention rate. This highlights the company’s ability to balance green data center delivery, quality, and cost-effectiveness.
