Viettel operates a supercomputer system, processing 20 million billion calculations per second

Viettel’s high-performance computing system reaches 20 PetaFlops (20 million billion calculations/second). The supercomputer has just been invested by Viettel using technology similar to supercomputers in the Top 500 in the world and is one of the few supercomputers with the largest processing capacity in Vietnam today.
Military Industry and Telecoms Group (Viettel) said that recently, Viettel Cyber ​​Center (a member of Viettel Group) has officially operated a high-performance computing system at the data center. Viettel, is also the largest data center of Vietnam today.

This is a turning point that helps Viettel improve its computing capacity to build and operate more complex artificial intelligence (AI) models in a short time, when the demand for computation increases sharply in both quantity and scale. The investment Viettel system has the leading computing performance in Vietnam, reaching 20 PetaFlops (20 million billion calculations/second), helping to reduce machine learning training time by dozens of times. As a result, Viettel Cyber ​​Center can train many models at the same time, with high complexity. The system also trains for continuous model improvement, shortening the time it takes to improve the quality of AI models. The supercomputer invested by Viettel uses computational acceleration technologies, switching devices and synchronous software, similar to the technology of supercomputers in the Top 500 in the world. Putting the system into operation marks a new development step for Viettel in realizing the Decision on promulgating the national strategy on AI research, development and application by 2030, issued by the Prime Minister in January. -2021. Accordingly, by 2030, Vietnam will become a center of innovation, development of AI solutions and applications in the ASEAN region and around the world. Part of a supercomputer – High-performance computing system at Viettel Data Center As the national security and defense enterprise, possessing the largest telecommunications and information technology infrastructure in the country, Viettel aims to play a key role in AI application in the military and defense sectors, as well as other areas of security data safety, network safety and security; urban management, social management and public administration and other areas of social life. Mr. Nguyen Dinh Chien – Deputy General Director of Viettel Group said: “Viettel is determined to invest in AI, which is an important field to carry out its pioneering and key mission of creating a digital society. This investment will allow Viettel to unleash its creativity, attract leading AI experts, ready to take on the country’s big tasks in AI.” Anish Pandey, Regional Director for ASEAN region at NVIDIA (World No. 1 AI Computing Company), said: The high-performance computing system will allow Viettel to create new revenue opportunities and be a company. global pioneer in the use of AI solutions.
