Every time I visit China, I'm amazed by the rapid technological progress fueled by innovation. Here, both individuals and businesses are driven by a strong desire for change. With the introduction of new technologies, transformative changes are continuously breaking traditional boundaries. Last week, I attended the Baidu Cloud Summit (ABC Summit) and announced the establishment of the Baidu-Intel Artificial Intelligence Solution Center with Baidu Cloud. This partnership highlights our shared commitment to advancing innovation in Cloud Computing—commonly referred to as ABC, which stands for Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, and Cloud Computing. These three pillars form the foundation of Baidu's business transformation.
Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning:
Artificial intelligence is reshaping markets globally, influencing sectors such as finance, healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing. Intel is dedicated to making AI accessible to everyone. To achieve this, we partnered with Baidu Cloud to create an AI solution center. This collaboration combines our strengths in hardware and software to deliver Intel’s latest AI technologies and solutions in a simplified, scalable, and comprehensive way within the Baidu Cloud environment.
Simplified
In the early stages, there’s no cost involved. Customers can develop, test, and run AI applications on the Baidu-Intel AI cloud, which supports deep learning frameworks. Additionally, the AI architecture is easy to program and manage using standard Intel platforms.
Scalable
Users can start with a single application or proof of concept and scale up as needed to larger deployments.
Comprehensive
Baidu Cloud and Intel jointly offer a full set of tools and solutions that support every stage of the AI workflow—from problem definition, model design, to deployment in production.
The Baidu-Intel Industrial Intelligence Solution Center is expected to launch in the next quarter. In addition, Intel will continue to enhance its AI framework by leveraging its latest hardware and libraries. The Intel Xeon Scalable Processor Platform includes built-in deep learning enhancements through the Intel® Math Kernel Library (MKL-DNN) and Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512), significantly boosting neural network performance. This technical advantage will greatly optimize Baidu’s PaddlePaddle open-source deep learning framework, improving its overall performance.
Big Data:
For most companies, big data is the starting point for deeper insights. To empower AI, many organizations integrate deep learning into their existing infrastructure. In response, Intel developed and open-sourced BigDL, a distributed deep learning library for Apache Spark. With BigDL, users can write deep learning applications as standard Apache Spark programs that run on existing Spark or Hadoop clusters. Baidu Cloud will release a unified data analysis platform that integrates BigDL and Hadoop, enabling users to leverage neural network capabilities without the need to invest in separate frameworks.
Cloud Computing:
Today, enterprises across industries are moving their applications to the cloud to improve agility and scalability. As a result, cloud service providers face growing demands. They must optimize performance for various workloads, especially compute- and data-intensive ones. Intel has customized CPUs for Baidu, tailored to its specific workloads, enhancing performance and user experience. Baidu has adopted Intel’s latest Xeon Scalable processors and achieved significant energy efficiency improvements. With these technologies, Baidu is well-positioned to support industry users and help them succeed in today’s competitive business landscape.
Future business success depends on the ability to quickly process data and drive actionable insights. Intel and Baidu are working together to innovate and use big data to guide decision-making.
