DPU is the next breakthrough of domestic chips?
In recent years, with the continuous development of big data and digital economy, data centers around the world are accelerating their implementation, and computing power is becoming the core productivity in the new era. The ever-increasing application scenarios and computing demands have also made the new technology concept DPU rise at an amazing speed and become the focus of the whole industry and even the whole society.
In September, after the United States issued restrictions on China's export of high-performance data center GPUs, the trend of accelerating the localization of core computing technologies became increasingly clear, which also boosted the market heat of domestic AI chips, DPUs and GPUs. In the capital market, Chinese related concept stocks rose in response, and news of successful financing of related enterprises emerged in endlessly. Domestic chip enterprises are taking advantage of the trend to develop rapidly.
On September 20, according to domestic media reports, China Keyuzu, a domestic DPU chip company, announced today that it had completed a round B financing of hundreds of millions of yuan, which was much larger than previous rounds. It is reported that this financing is mainly led by Financial Street Capital, followed by CCB Capital under CCB, and followed by Lingjun Investment, Halo Capital and Quanzong Capital, the old shareholders. Zhongkeyushu hopes to accelerate the iteration and industrial layout of self-developed DPU chips.
