The Birth of OpenPower: The Story Behind Envisioning the World's Largest Distributed Computing Network

In the early spring of 2020, as the world was buoyed by the rapid development of emerging technologies, a team of tech pioneers at Oasis Innovation Labs and VV GLOBAL Foundation were already envisioning the future tide. They deeply recognized that, in today’s era where artificial intelligence and big data increasingly become thematic, computing power is not only the driving force behind technological innovation but also a key element determining the future competitive landscape. Facing the massive demand of future technologies, they set a mission: to transcend the limitations of traditional computing power supply and plan the construction of a global, efficient, and flexible distributed computing network.
 

 
This mission-driven discussion and planning eventually gave birth to an ambitious project—the team decided to name this network "OpenPower". This name reflects its open nature and formidable computing power, symbolizing that the project will provide unlimited "power" and "energy" for global technological innovation and social progress. OpenPower aims to connect computing power resources around the world, optimizing the allocation and utilization of resources through a distributed approach, creating a new intelligent computing ecosystem.
 
This conception is not just a leap in technology but also a bold vision for the future world. OpenPower envisions a new world where computing power is ubiquitous, and artificial intelligence and big data applications seamlessly interconnect. Guided by this vision, whether for massive scientific research computations or meeting the needs of everyday intelligent applications, each data processing and analysis will become exceptionally efficient and cost-effective.
 

 
To realize this grand vision, the Oasis Innovation Labs and VV GLOBAL Foundation teams spent considerable time conducting in-depth market research, exploring potential technological paths, and beginning to attract top global tech talent. They analyzed the current state and trends of global computing power demand, studied the cutting edge of distributed computing technology, and explored how blockchain technology could be used to transparently and securely manage computing power transactions. Through these preliminary preparations, the team gradually built the project's foundational framework, laying a solid foundation for future technological development and global expansion.
 
In attracting top global talent, Oasis Innovation Labs and VV GLOBAL Foundation showcased their unique charm. Experts from the fields of computer science, blockchain, cloud computing, and more were attracted by OpenPower's grand vision and joined this innovative journey. These experts brought cutting-edge technical knowledge and rich practical experience, injecting new vitality and inspiration into the project's development.
 
Simultaneously, they began contacting global computing power suppliers, AI research institutions, and technology partners to discuss potential cooperation methods and possibilities. These early cooperation attempts provided rich resources and support for the construction of OpenPower's network and the development of its ecosystem. Through shared visions and cooperative exploration, the OpenPower project gradually moved from conception to practice, carrying the grand dream of pushing the distributed computing network globally and supporting the development of artificial intelligence and big data applications.
 

 
Behind all these efforts is a commitment to a profound belief: by building OpenPower, we can provide stronger, more flexible, and more efficient computing power support for the global development of artificial intelligence and big data, thereby advancing technological progress and societal development. The launch of OpenPower not only marks the beginning of a technical project but also heralds the onset of a new future world transformation.
