The product portfolio spans four technology areas: HPC (CPAS atmospheric simulation, OPER air quality management, CHESS scheduler, CPE v3 middleware, CPFS parallel file system), AI and Analytics (PRISMA NLP engine with modules for knowledge management, customer opinion mining, crisis intelligence, and BFSI social listening, plus retail, traffic, and inventory analytics), Cloud (CCMP-EaaS HPC cloud, Fengqi Asia public cloud, CDN services), and Big Data Infrastructure (CTBP). The platform architecture emphasizes heterogeneous computing power management, with dual Slurm+Kubernetes scheduling and dual native certification on Huawei Ascend and Kunpeng architectures. Revenue mechanics combine subscription and recurring fees for HPC and AI platforms, usage-based pricing for cloud services, and professional services for cluster design, implementation, training, and maintenance.

The go-to-market is a direct enterprise sales motion supported by field offices, industry events (LEAP EAST, IE Expo, InnoEX), and an official WeChat account. The company maintains strategic technology alliances with Huawei, Intel (Lustre reseller), IBM (Platform Computing), Fujitsu (Exabyte File System), Google Cloud, AWS, Alibaba Cloud, Akamai, Dell, DDN, Altair, and Riverbed, and has integrated its EaaS platform with the OpenClaw AI framework. Certifications include ISO 27001:2022 and inclusion in the CAICT AIIA Research Intelligence Supplier Directory. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.
