National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou, High performance computing center in Guangzhou, China.

The National Supercomputing Center in Guangzhou is a research facility located at Sun Yat-sen University that provides advanced computing power for scientific research. The center handles complex problems in areas such as materials science, climate modeling, and biotechnology across multiple disciplines.

The center was established in 2014 through a partnership between Sun Yat-sen University and the National University of Defence Technology. This collaboration arose from China's effort to strengthen its research infrastructure in high-performance computing.

The center's name is tied to Guangzhou, where it occupies 42,332 square metres on the East Campus of Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center. Its Jiangmen branch, opened on 20 December 2023 in Tangxia Town, Pengjiang District, brings Tianhe-2 into Jiangmen and pairs computing resources with artificial intelligence and big-data work.

The facility is located on the Sun Yat-sen University campus and is accessible by public transportation. Visitors should expect that access to certain areas may be limited and requires advance planning.

Tianhe-2, the center's main system, was the world's fastest supercomputer from its 2013 debut until June 2016, when it was overtaken. The center occupies 42,332 square metres on Sun Yat-sen University's East Campus on Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center island, and a Jiangmen branch in Pengjiang District opened on 20 December 2023.
