Deepen AI applications and embrace independent innovation—Weixin Cloud 3.0 is upgraded again

On October 18, Winning World 2023, a national academic exchange event hosted by Winning Health and focusing on the digital transformation of the medical field, concluded successfully. The theme of this conference is "Where the Next Begins, Intelligent Advancement, Rapid Progress and Resilient Growth" to explore how the medical industry should make good use of AI under technological changes to create medical care that can "perceive", "think" and "interact" intelligently. New future.

As a strategic partner of Weining Health, Sangfor Medical Division General Manager Yuan Lin was invited to attend the meeting and delivered a speech on the theme of "A New Generation of Weining Cloud for AI - Creating an Independent and Controllable Cloud Infrastructure" Speech, officially launched the open and integrated digital health platform jointly created by Sangfor and Weining Health - Weining Cloud version 3.0.

The cooperation between Sangfor and Weining Health began in 2018. The joint solution between the two parties, Weining Cloud, was officially released in 2019. Through the continuous update and iteration of emerging technologies, as well as the continuous collision and integration of both parties, Weining Cloud has now been iterated Updated to the third version.

Yuan Lin believes that the disruptive application of AI technology and the hospital's own business development needs will inevitably make hospitals start to consider the construction of AI computing power and resource pools, full-stack information innovation upgrades, and the construction of big data platforms. At the same time, complex Management and operation and maintenance also bring demands for service-oriented and asset-light services.

For medical informatization, in addition to business stability and security, demands such as data services, independent controllability, unified management, and improved production efficiency also require new IT architectures to assume a higher mission. Weixin Cloud 3.0 is also based on the new AI technology and medical business needs, focusing on the construction of three major characteristics and capabilities to create an independent and controllable cloud infrastructure for medical users.

First, a high-performance high-performance computing platform for AIGC has been built. Through the cooperation between Sangfor and Weining, the AI ​​application effect has been greatly improved, the overall cost has been reduced, and the cost of data privacy has been guaranteed.

Second, Weixin Cloud 3.0 and WiNEX and other application software are deeply adapted to achieve a basically consistent experience of Xinchuang and non-Xinchuang business functions in terms of overall application effect and stability and reliability.

Third, Weixin Cloud 3.0 is optimized and designed around Weining Health’s new generation software WiNEX and SaaS services, creating an O2O online and offline integrated solution.

For AI, create a low-cost, high-performance cloud platform

The AI-oriented capabilities built by Weixin Cloud 3.0 not only simply build AI computing resources in clusters and data centers, but also build AIGC high-performance solution scenarios, creating advantages such as not compromising performance and significantly reducing inference costs.

1. The cost of large model training is 60% lower than that of conventional optimization: The best training time configuration is accumulated during the development process of the test drive large model, packaged into a scaffold, and provided to users in the form of tool kits or UIs, so that users do not need to pay attention to technology By focusing on details, you can efficiently streamline the fine-tuning process of large models and reduce training costs by 60%.

2. Large model inference does not lose model performance, and the cost is reduced by 75%: Provides an automated mechanism for model compression and closed-loop alignment, reducing model memory consumption and reducing the cost of inference without losing accuracy. At the same time, Sangfor provides a GPU overprovisioning and resource scheduling mechanism. By building a GPU resource pool, it realizes voluntary overprovisioning and time-sharing multiplexing of GPUs, so that comprehensive inference costs can be reduced by 75% compared to before optimization.

Based on hyper-convergence, create an infrastructure with advanced architecture and consistent dual stack

Yuan Lin introduced that Sangfor relies on hyper-converged technology to build a differentiated OS shielding layer, which strips away the correlation between the underlying OS kernel and the upper-layer functional code, improves the advancement of the overall cloud platform architecture, and makes up for the differences between Sangfor and non-Sangfor. Capability gaps at the hardware, operating system, and host OS layers in the Xinchuang environment.

In addition, in view of the business importance of Weining application software, Sangfor and Weining have repeatedly communicated and verified at the R&D level to set the businesses and corresponding computing resources that need to be protected, such as setting the priority of resource scheduling for important virtual machines. Prevent VCPU from being preempted, minimize the impact on the performance of key services, and ensure intelligent CPU scheduling of key services.

Ultimately ensure the unification of functions in Xinchuang and non-Xinchuang modes, and achieve "dual-mode alignment" in terms of effect, experience and performance - no compromise on functions, no compromise on quality, and no lock-in of hardware.

Based on WiNEX, create the next cloud for O2O online and offline

Weixin Cloud 3.0 has been comprehensively optimized and designed around Weining Health’s new generation software WiNEX and SaaS services. From the perspective of functional components, in addition to business flow visualization and database optimization functions, the most critical change of Weixin Cloud 3.0 is from the previous localized delivery to O2O online and offline integrated delivery, which can support cloud delivery and local delivery. , three modes of integrated delivery.

Weixin Cloud 3.0 can bring the real-time update service capabilities of the cloud to the local area and provide a full-stack information solution. Key businesses will be moved offline, and services and lightweight non-core businesses will be moved online. And through the linkage of software and hardware integrated cloud butler, Weixin Cloud 3.0 can provide comprehensive information monitoring and operation and maintenance capabilities.

After five years of in-depth cooperation, Weining Health and Sangfor have taken the lead in jointly building an advanced solution for overall medical informatization. Since the initial release of Weixin Cloud, Sangfor and Weining have jointly served more than 300 medical institutions in 100 cities.

With the continuous emergence of new technologies and the continuous changes in industry and business, we are increasingly convinced that the "combination of software and hardware" between the medical information ecology is to provide medical users with an overall "simplification of complexity" effective approach to the program. Sangfor will continue to be committed to supporting the digital development of hospitals and achieving smart medical care through first-class IT infrastructure.
