Siemens China and Amazon Cloud Technology sign strategic cooperation agreement

Senior executives from Siemens China and Amazon Cloud Technology met at Siemens China's Beijing headquarters. The two parties announced the signing of a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly establish a "joint innovation team." Based on Amazon Cloud Technology's leading technologies and services in the field of generative AI, combined with Siemens' deep accumulation and experience in the industrial field, the joint innovation team will in-depth explore cloud computing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data and other cutting-edge technologies and manufacturing industries Further integrate and accelerate the innovative application of generative AI technology in the manufacturing industry. Siemens China Vice President Yang Bin and Amazon Cloud Technology China Industry Cluster General Manager Tian Feng attended and signed a strategic cooperation agreement.

Based on the strategic cooperation agreement, the two parties will focus on exploring and building an efficient and reliable enterprise-level big data platform, and carry out in-depth cooperation in the fields of artificial intelligence platform construction, advanced algorithm research and development, enterprise-level PaaS platform standardization and application modernization, using big data and artificial intelligence Intelligent technology improves the efficiency of internal operations of enterprises, accelerates product iterative development, promotes the integration of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT), and continues to inject new momentum into the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. At the same time, both parties will continue to explore potential application scenarios of generative AI in the manufacturing industry, such as using generative AI to enhance product design innovation capabilities, optimize production and manufacturing processes, improve customer experience, etc., to help manufacturing companies seize new heights in industry development.

Siemens AG (hereinafter referred to as "Siemens") is a leading global technology company focusing on industry, infrastructure, transportation and medical fields. From more efficient and energy-saving factories, more resilient supply chains, smarter buildings and power grids, to cleaner and more comfortable transportation and advanced medical systems, Siemens is committed to making technology useful and creating value for customers. Since 2017, Siemens China has cooperated with Amazon Cloud Technology. From enterprise-level support to help migrate SAP systems to the cloud, to the deployment of integrated simulation computing cloud service platforms, the implementation of cloud-edge collaboration solutions, and the application of the latest generative AI technology, Siemens China and Amazon Cloud Technology have always maintained close cooperation and actively created Innovative digital solutions continuously improve the efficiency and intelligence level of manufacturing operations, and help Siemens and its corporate customers achieve transformation, reshaping and business innovation.

Siemens China and Amazon Cloud Technology have launched cloud-edge collaboration, using Amazon Cloud Technology's artificial intelligence and machine learning service Amazon SageMaker, data analysis service Amazon Elastic MapReduce (Amazon EMR), Internet of Things service IoT and storage service Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3 ) and other cloud services, as well as Siemens’ industrial edge solutions, jointly help manufacturing customers improve the digitalization and intelligence of their factories. Based on the cloud-edge collaboration solution, Siemens Automation Chengdu Factory successfully built an automatic sorting system for industrial waste, significantly increasing the sorting accuracy from 70% to more than 97%, and the classification accuracy of hazardous waste from 90% to nearly 100%. .

Currently, generative AI technology is reshaping the way people work, and more and more companies are accelerating the integration of generative AI technology with their own businesses. With the help of Amazon Cloud Technology, Siemens China has built an intelligent knowledge base and intelligent conversational robot "Xiaoyu" based on its own model. "Xiaoyu" integrates Siemens' unique internal knowledge system, such as Siemens' various products and solutions, internal processes, etc., and can automatically locate content and extract knowledge. When employees have questions and need answers, they can ask "Xiaoyu" directly. "Xiaoyu" intelligently extracts knowledge and answers directly, instead of a large number of relevant or irrelevant search results in traditional search methods, and employees still need to waste time and effort to find the corresponding answers. s answer. This greatly improves the efficiency of employees' access to work information. In just three months, Siemens China completed the development and deployment of the entire system. In the first week of launch, more than 4,000 internal users used it and more than 12,000 questions were answered.

Looking to the future, the signing of this strategic cooperation marks that the cooperation between the two parties will enter a new stage with a deeper level and wider scope. Yang Bin, Vice President of Siemens China, said: "Siemens China and Amazon Cloud Technology have maintained close and in-depth cooperation over the years, covering many fields such as industrial software, factory intelligence, and product intelligence. Through the signing of this strategic cooperation agreement, Siemens China looks forward to continuing its in-depth cooperation with Amazon Cloud Technology. Based on the leading technology and advantages of Amazon Cloud Technology, we will fully seize the development opportunities of generative AI, accelerate the application and innovation of cutting-edge technologies such as generative AI in the manufacturing industry, and empower Siemens China in all aspects. High-quality development with the manufacturing companies we serve."

"Siemens is a technology company with a global vision and forward-looking attitude, and has extremely rich practical experience in industrial manufacturing and digital transformation." Tian Feng, general manager of Amazon Cloud Technology China Industry Cluster, said, "We are very honored to sign a strategic agreement with Siemens China The cooperation agreement represents that the cooperation between the two parties has entered a new stage of development. In the future, we will continue to promote the in-depth integration of 'artificial intelligence +' and the manufacturing industry, jointly explore more generative AI innovative application scenarios, and help promote the manufacturing industry. Continuously upgrade innovation and intelligent development."
