Huawei and DeepSeek: New Breakthrough and New Ecology of AI Server

In today's era of rapid digital and intelligent development, artificial intelligence technology is constantly innovating, and various technology companies and institutions are increasing their investment in the field of AI, striving to occupy a place in this cutting-edge field. Huawei, as an important force in the global technology field, has recently attracted widespread attention again. Its cooperation with DeepSeek has undergone a significant upgrade, especially the update of Huawei Cloud ModelArts Studio (MaaS) platform and the first local deployment of DeepSeek based on Huawei's upgraded AI computing power in Guangxi universities, which demonstrate Huawei's profound technological accumulation and powerful ecological construction capabilities in the AI field.
DeepSeek has rapidly emerged in the field of AI since the beginning of this year, standing out with its unique algorithm optimization strategy. Unlike traditional large models that heavily rely on massive high-end computing power, DeepSeek significantly reduces hardware requirements and can achieve efficient operation in limited computing environments. This innovative model has brought new development opportunities to many industries, including cloud service providers, telecommunications operators, automobile manufacturers, and more. On the one hand, it reduces the cost of large models, allowing more enterprises to have the opportunity to engage in the application and research and development of large models; On the other hand, it has further stimulated the market's new demand for large models and promoted the widespread application of AI technology in more fields.
Huawei Cloud also plays a crucial role in the development of DeepSeek. Huawei Cloud ModelArts Studio (MaaS), as a platform providing Model as a Service, has recently received a major update. This update has added support for DeepSeek R1, which is compatible with Ascend DeepSeek - V3。 Not only that, but a comprehensive upgrade has also been made to the model's capabilities and deployment usage. Specifically, increasing the sequence length to 32K to enhance processing capability is of great significance for handling complex tasks and massive amounts of data; Introducing the latest Reasoning Content interface to make the model more precise and efficient in reasoning and understanding; The supporting enterprise level optimization plan and Prompt Engineering techniques have further improved the performance and stability of the model; At the same time, the cost of independent deployment has been halved, which will undoubtedly promote the rapid expansion of business and enable more enterprises to enjoy advanced AI technology at a lower cost.
In addition to these technological upgrades, the Huawei Cloud MaaS platform also provides a lot of support for developers. The platform provides 2 million tokens for developers to use for free, which is highly attractive to developers. It can help developers quickly validate and implement innovative applications, greatly reducing development costs and barriers to entry. In addition, it also supports one click deployment of dedicated instances, unlocking production level performance and stability, allowing developers to focus more on business innovation.
In addition to the update of Huawei Cloud MaaS platform, the launch and internal testing of DeepSeek, the first locally deployed AI computing power based on Huawei Ascend in Guangxi universities, at Wuzhou College has also attracted widespread attention. Wuzhou University responds to the national cyberspace security strategy and supports the localization of innovation and entrepreneurship. With the assistance of Huawei engineers, the Smart Campus Special Class successfully deployed DeepSeek R1 (70B) with the newly purchased Huawei Atlas 800 AI server, achieving full stack localization deployment.
In terms of data security, this deployment is of great significance. All user data is stored locally only and will not be used for any model optimization or third-party sharing, strictly safeguarding scientific research confidentiality and personal privacy, building a secure defense line for academic exploration, and effectively meeting the data compliance requirements of relevant laws and regulations for educational institutions.
Moreover, the application of DeepSeek based on Ascend AI deployment on campus also has multiple advantages. Firstly, it has strong computing power support, relying on Huawei Ascend's computing power and the school enterprise cooperation industry university research platform, which can ensure the stable and efficient operation of DeepSeek. Secondly, highly customized services can be provided, allowing teachers and researchers to establish private knowledge bases based on their professional fields and achieve precise adaptation of algorithm models. Thirdly, DeepSeek has rich application scenarios and supports tasks in multiple fields such as natural language processing, computer vision, speech recognition, etc. It can play an important role in teaching, learning, scientific research, and other areas. For example, assisting in the construction of intelligent teaching assistance systems in teaching, and applying them in various scientific research scenarios such as image recognition and text generation.
The upgraded collaboration between Huawei and DeepSeek, as well as the localized deployment of DeepSeek in universities, has brought new opportunities for the development of the AI industry. From the perspective of enterprises, it reduces the threshold and cost of applying large models, providing more convenient and efficient AI solutions for enterprises. For educational institutions, it provides strong support for cultivating more talents with AI technology application capabilities, while also promoting the digital transformation of the education industry. For the entire industry ecosystem, the continuous upgrading of Huawei Cloud MaaS platform and the widespread application of DeepSeek have enriched the AI industry ecosystem and stimulated the emergence and development of more innovative applications.
In the future, we have reason to believe that Huawei and DeepSeek will continue to deepen their cooperation and make continuous efforts in technology research and development, ecological construction, and other aspects. The Huawei Cloud MaaS platform is expected to receive more updates and upgrades, providing developers with richer and more powerful features and services. DeepSeek will also be applied in more fields and scenarios, contributing more wisdom and strength to solving practical problems and promoting industry progress.
From a macro perspective, this series of developments is also a reflection of China's continuous progress in the field of artificial intelligence. In today's increasingly fierce global AI competition, Chinese technology companies and institutions have continuously improved their AI technology level and application capabilities through independent innovation and win-win cooperation, taking solid steps towards achieving the goal of becoming a technological powerhouse.
In short, the cooperation between Huawei and DeepSeek is an important event in the field of AI. The upgrade of Huawei's cloud MaaS platform and the localized deployment of DeepSeek in universities have brought new vitality and opportunities to the development of the AI industry. We look forward to these two technological forces continuing to create more brilliance in the future and making greater contributions to promoting the development and application of AI technology.
