Baidu PaddlePaddle AI Data Center Project

PaddlePaddle is Baidu’s artificial intelligence platform, built on more than 13 years of R&D and technological accumulation. As the first independently developed deep learning platform in China, it underpins Baidu’s large‑scale AI applications, including the “ERNIE Bot” foundation model.

To support rapidly growing model training and inference workloads, Baidu needed an AI data center infrastructure that could deliver high rack density, stable cooling, and lower operating costs, while remaining scalable and easy to manage.
