Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1092 of 1153 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 40 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

Figures are as last publicly reported for the configuration described below, not a live measurement. Where a system was upgraded in place, the post-upgrade configuration is shown and the earlier one appears in the timeline.
What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.
| Role | Part | Supplier at build | Quantity | Confidence | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Integrator | - Jointly built by Chongqing authorities, Huawei and China Software International on Ascend technology | Huawei | - | Reported | ithome.com |

The read
Public AI computing platform in the Xiyong Microelectronics Park of Western Science City, Chongqing, built by the Chongqing Economic and Information Technology Commission, Liangjiang New Area, Huawei and China Software International. First phase is 400 P on Huawei Ascend processors (IT Home). Trial operation began in April 2023 with 98 percent utilisation and 50-plus customers, and the centre was formally inaugurated on 5 September 2023 (China Daily). Chongqing Smart Computing Technology is the sole operating entity. The 'P' figure is a low-precision AI unit; Huawei's Ascend site lists the same 400 P first phase. Power and chip count are not stated.

Source check
We fetched this system's own citations and recorded whether each page actually mentions it. This is a corroboration signal, not a fact check, and it is published so you can see how well the sourcing holds up rather than take it on trust.
Every source cited on this page was readable, and none of them mentions this system. They are cited at page granularity, normally because no stable deep link could be found. That is a real weakness in this row and it is why the system carries a confidence tier below verified. See how this check works.
