China AI Infrastructure
AI work that has to run inside China needs three things that are usually bought from three different vendors: GPU capacity, a place to run it, and compliant access to the models. We aggregate all three. NVIDIA H100, H200, A100, and L40S capacity from our partner pool, as single GPUs or multi-node clusters with RDMA interconnects. Colocation and Smart Hands to house, cable, and maintain it. And AI Gateway in front of the model layer, aggregating China's ecosystem — DeepSeek, Kimi, GLM, Doubao, Tongyi, Hunyuan — alongside the global leaders, behind one key with unified billing, rate limiting, and automatic failover. Compute, hosting, and model access from one partner, inside China's data residency rules.
Key benefits
- Aggregated GPU capacity — we find H100, H200, A100, and L40S when individual providers are sold out
- Single GPU or multi-node clusters with RDMA interconnects for distributed training
- Pre-configured ML stacks (CUDA, PyTorch, TensorFlow, vLLM, DeepSpeed) provisioned in 24-48 hours rather than weeks
- Colocation and Smart Hands for the same footprint, so racking, cabling, and RMAs stay with one partner
- Every major model behind one API key — China-native and global — with model-level discount structures and automatic failover
- Data residency handled: compute, storage, and model traffic stay inside the mainland
Who it's for
Teams training, fine-tuning, or serving models for the China market: AI product teams hedging across China-native and global models, enterprises with data that cannot leave the mainland, and research groups that need GPU capacity without multi-month lead times.
Our approach
We scope the workload first — training, fine-tuning, or inference — because that decides the GPU shape, the interconnect, and the hosting. Capacity is sourced across our provider pool and provisioned with the ML stack pre-installed, then placed in a facility that matches your power density and compliance requirements, with Smart Hands covering physical operations. On the model side we configure AI Gateway with the providers you choose, set routing and rate limits, and keep billing consolidated.

Cross-Border Cloud Connectivity
Connect your China infrastructure directly to AWS, Azure, and GCP across APAC, US, and Europe — at the bandwidth and price point that fits your workload. We offer the full spectrum: managed 50 Mbps-1 Gbps virtual connections through Megaport and Equinix Fabric for cost-sensitive or moderate-traffic environments, and dedicated 1-100 Gbps physical cross-connects for data-heavy production workloads. Standard cloud provider partners cannot legally establish these China-to-overseas links. We can — with full compliance documentation and multiple active enterprise customers running production today.
Learn moreChina Enterprise Private Line
End-to-end private connectivity between your China sites and the rest of the world, built from two circuit types that work together: DPLC for the domestic point-to-point legs between Chinese cities, and IEPL or MPLS for the cross-border leg. Both are Layer 2, so your own routing runs across the whole path, and both are uncontended, so latency, jitter, and packet loss stay stable through the evening peak instead of degrading with the public internet. We source from China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile, and alternative operators, then choose the combination that fits your route, bandwidth, and budget — and we hold the carrier relationships, so you sign one contract and escalate through one path.
Learn moreChina Network-as-a-Service
Build and operate your entire China network through a single managed service — no hardware procurement, no carrier negotiations, no local IT team required. We deploy and manage Virtual Edge appliances (your choice of FortiGate, VyOS, RouterOS, or Zscaler VSE) connected via our multi-carrier DIA and Private Connect circuits. We handle configuration, policy management, OS updates, and 24/7 monitoring. You get a fully managed China network with complete visibility — one partner, one invoice, one SLA.
Learn moreChina Application Reachability
Your application is hosted outside China and your Chinese users feel it — slow loads, timeouts, and unstable connections across the international border. We put a managed edge layer between your origin and those users: near-shore edge nodes that cache, terminate TLS, and carry traffic back to origin over optimized cross-border paths. Your domain needs no ICP filing and no mainland entity, and onboarding is a single CNAME record — no TXT verification, no nameserver migration. Your infrastructure does not move, your data stays where it already lives, and your team keeps one origin and one deployment pipeline.
