The China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, together with a compute industry consortium, has launched a Compute Superbank Ecosystem Co-construction Plan using China’s compute platform to develop two market-facing service models: a "compute supermarket" and a "compute bank". The compute supermarket will offer flexible billing (card-hour, core-hour and token) to enable SMEs to procure compute on a pay-as-you-go basis and lower upfront investment. The compute bank will establish a simulated deposit–billing–withdrawal–credit operational mechanism to let SMEs deposit idle compute for cross-region, cross-cycle scheduling and flexible withdrawal; it will research tiered settlement by compute contribution and explore a compute credit-scoring system.(金十数据)
