Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent data center management and control technology, specifically to an integrated modular data center control system that addresses the computing power requirements of large models, integrates management and control, and features hardware-based protection. It is applicable to scenarios such as dedicated data centers for large model training and inference, high-density computing power data centers, and intelligent integrated data centers. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of large-scale artificial intelligence technology, large-scale model training and inference place extremely high demands on the computing power support, energy consumption control, heat dissipation efficiency, and operational stability of data centers. Traditional distributed data centers and ordinary modular data centers are no longer adequate to meet these specific needs. Existing integrated modular data center control systems generally suffer from the following core technical deficiencies: 1. The data center management logic relies entirely on upper-layer software. Core processes such as power supply regulation, heat dissipation scheduling, security protection, and computing power allocation are easily tampered with, bypassed, or interrupted by program failures, which cannot meet the stability and security requirements of large models running continuously under high load for a long time. 2. The various functional modules of the computer room (power supply, heat dissipation, computing power, security, and monitoring) are managed independently and separately. The coordination and scheduling between modules rely on software communication, resulting in high response latency. This makes it impossible to adapt to the rapid adjustment needs of large-scale model computing power dynamic fluctuations, and the overall energy consumption utilization rate is low. 3. The lack of a hardware-level fixed control mechanism means that core control parameters and operating procedures can be arbitrarily modified through software. There is no mandatory protection path, which can easily lead to problems such as illegal operation, data leakage, and system crashes. The security guarantee capability for large-scale computing power operation is insufficient. 4. Modular expansion lacks flexibility. When adjusting the size of the data center or adding computing power modules, the software management program needs to be reconfigured, the adaptation process is cumbersome, and it cannot quickly adapt to the elastic expansion needs of large-scale computing power clusters. 5. The data center management system and the external management host are not physically isolated. The external host can directly interfere with the core management process, posing a security risk of external attacks and illegal manipulation, making it difficult to guarantee the independent and stable operation of the large model data center. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Purpose of the invention To address the shortcomings of existing technologies in adapting to dedicated large-scale computing rooms, this invention provides an integrated modular data center control system. This system achieves hardware-based solidification of data center management processes, integrated collaborative scheduling of all modules, and end-to-end hardware-level security protection. It also meets the high stability, high security, high scalability, and low energy consumption requirements of large-scale computing power data centers, fundamentally solving the problems of software-dependent management, poor module collaboration, and weak security protection. Technical solution

[0004] An integrated modular data center control system is characterized in that the system is an integrated control system that deeply integrates the entire data center management process with hardware circuits, including an integrated control base unit and several physically independent functional modular units. The integrated control base unit and the functional modular units are connected by detachable modular electrical connections to form an integrated data center management structure with a single module or a multi-module cluster. The integrated control base unit has a built-in underlying solid logic integrated circuit. The underlying solid logic integrated circuit is an integrated circuit chip that cannot be modified by the user after leaving the factory. Its internal physical connection relationship of hardware gate circuits constructs a fixed execution path that corresponds one-to-one with the full process control steps of the large model computer room. The execution rules, timing path and scheduling logic of the fixed execution path are uniquely determined by the physical connection relationship of the gate circuits. It is a hardware path that can be bypassed by software intervention, modification and bypass. The integrated control base unit is equipped with standardized modular interfaces that correspond one-to-one with the functional modular units. The electrical specifications, communication protocols, and scheduling instructions of the standardized modular interfaces are permanently locked by the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit at the factory. Once locked, they cannot be changed by user-operable software or hardware. The underlying solidified logic integrated circuit integrates a hardware integrated protection and scheduling circuit. This hardware integrated protection and scheduling circuit is connected in series between all standardized modular interfaces and fixed execution paths. It is the only necessary hardware path for data transmission, instruction interaction, and collaborative scheduling between all functional modular units and fixed execution paths, and between functional modular units throughout the entire system operation cycle. It realizes modular control, power supply and heat dissipation collaborative scheduling, access control, and full-process security protection that are synchronized with the hardware level of the fixed execution path.

[0005] Furthermore, the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit adopts any one of the following: a non-reprogrammable application-specific integrated circuit chip, a field-programmable gate array chip with one-time fuse lockout, or a mask-based solidified chip. After the chip leaves the factory, the physical connection relationship of its internal hardware gate circuits cannot be changed.

[0006] Furthermore, the integrated hardware protection and scheduling circuit integrates at least one of the following: modular interface control circuit, multi-channel power supply regulation circuit, intelligent heat dissipation scheduling circuit, hardware permission isolation matrix, and cluster computing power coordination circuit; the multi-channel power supply regulation circuit dynamically adjusts the power supply of each functional modular unit according to the large model computing power load, and the intelligent heat dissipation scheduling circuit synchronously matches the heat dissipation intensity, thereby realizing integrated and coordinated management of energy consumption and heat dissipation.

[0007] Furthermore, the hardware permission isolation matrix performs independent hardware-level permission control on each access functional modular unit. Each functional modular unit only has the corresponding business execution permission and cannot access or modify the fixed execution path in the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of standardized modular interfaces can be configured according to the size of the data center and computing power requirements, adapting to the integrated management and control needs of small-capacity single-module data centers, medium-capacity multi-module cluster data centers, and large-capacity high-density computing power data centers.

[0009] Furthermore, the functional modular unit includes any one or more combinations of a large model computing power support module, an intelligent power supply module, an efficient heat dissipation module, an environmental monitoring module, a security management module, and a storage expansion module. Each functional modular unit follows a unified standardized modular interface specification, and can be connected to the system without debugging after connection to achieve hardware-level integrated collaboration.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixed execution path within the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit is adapted to both single-module independent operation mode and multi-module cluster collaborative operation mode. In the multi-module cluster mode, it automatically completes the entire process of synchronous control of computing power allocation, power supply scheduling, and heat dissipation coordination without the need for software intervention.

[0011] Furthermore, the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit has a built-in hardware-level anti-tampering circuit breaker mechanism. When it detects illegal modification of the fixed execution path, bypassing the only necessary hardware path, or unauthorized operation, it automatically triggers the hardware-level isolation lock of the corresponding functional modular unit to ensure the overall operation security of the computer room.

[0012] Furthermore, the integrated control base unit has independent non-same-source power domain and clock domain, which are physically and electrically isolated from the power and clock of the external management host system. The external management host cannot interfere with the operation of the fixed execution path in the underlying solidified logic integrated circuit.

[0013] Furthermore, the system supports hot-swappable modular unit replacement and expansion. During the plugging and unplugging process, the hardware integrated protection and scheduling circuit synchronously triggers surge suppression and current stabilization operations to ensure the stable operation of the computer room system without downtime. Beneficial effects

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following substantial features and significant technological advancements: 1. It pioneered a hardware-fixed architecture for the entire process of large-scale model data center management and control. It transforms core management and control processes such as power supply, heat dissipation, computing power scheduling, and security protection into fixed execution paths with physical connections of hardware gate circuits. The management and control logic is uniquely determined by the hardware structure, completely eliminating dependence on upper-layer software. It eliminates the risk of data center downtime caused by software tampering, bypassing, and program failures from the root, and perfectly adapts to the long-term continuous high-load operation requirements of large models. 2. Achieve integrated hardware-level collaboration among all functional modules in the data center, completing instruction interaction and scheduling between modules through a single, essential hardware path. This results in fast response speed and high collaboration accuracy. Power supply and heat dissipation can be quickly adjusted according to dynamic fluctuations in the computing power of large models, significantly improving energy efficiency and solving the problems of decentralized management and high response latency in existing data center modules. 3. It adopts hardware-level permission isolation and anti-tampering mechanism, and the core control process is permanently locked at the factory, with no user-modifiable path. Combined with hardware anti-tampering circuit breaker mechanism, it comprehensively protects the operation security of large model computer room and eliminates the risk of illegal operation and external attack. 4. Modular expansion and replacement are convenient and flexible. Each functional unit follows a unified interface specification. Once connected, it can automatically adapt to the hardware's fixed control logic without reconfiguring the software. It can quickly realize the elastic expansion of the data center scale and computing power, and adapt to the iterative upgrade needs of large-scale computing power clusters. 5. The control base and the external management host are physically and electrically isolated, preventing external systems from interfering with the core control process. This further enhances the independence and anti-interference capabilities of the data center operation. The overall stability, security, and adaptability are far superior to existing ordinary modular data center control systems, fully meeting the core usage requirements of large-scale dedicated data centers. Detailed Implementation

[0015] This specific implementation provides an integrated modular data center control system for large model training, and the specific implementation details are as follows: The system includes an integrated control base unit and eight physically independent functional modular units, namely two large model computing power support modules, two intelligent power supply modules, two high-efficiency heat dissipation modules, one environmental monitoring module, and one security control module. Each functional modular unit and the base unit are detachably electrically connected through standardized modular interfaces, supporting hot-swappable replacement and expansion.

[0016] The integrated control base unit has a built-in low-level solid logic integrated circuit. In this embodiment, a field-programmable gate array chip with one-time fuse lockout is used. After the chip leaves the factory, the physical connection relationship of the internal hardware gate circuit cannot be changed. Through the physical connection of the gate circuit, a fixed execution path is constructed that corresponds one-to-one with the entire process of power supply control, heat dissipation scheduling, computing power allocation and security protection of the large model computer room. The control rules and timing are completely determined by the hardware and there is no software intervention channel.

[0017] The base unit is equipped with eight standardized modular interfaces. The electrical specifications and communication protocols of the interfaces are permanently locked by the underlying solid logic integrated circuit at the factory, and users cannot modify them through any conventional means. The base has independent non-same-source power domains and clock domains, which are completely physically and electrically isolated from the external management host. The external host can only view the operating status and cannot interfere with the core control process.

[0018] The underlying fixed logic integrated circuit integrates a hardware-integrated protection and scheduling circuit, serving as the sole necessary hardware path for interaction between various functional modules and fixed execution paths. This simultaneously enables modular interface management, multi-channel power supply regulation, intelligent heat dissipation scheduling, and hardware access control isolation. During high-load operation of large models, the multi-channel power supply regulation circuit continuously increases the power supply to the computing modules, while the intelligent heat dissipation scheduling circuit synchronously matches the corresponding heat dissipation intensity. Under low load, it automatically reduces energy consumption, achieving integrated collaborative management. The hardware access control matrix restricts each module to executing only its corresponding business logic, preventing it from accessing the core fixed control logic.

[0019] The system incorporates a hardware-level anti-tampering circuit breaker mechanism, which monitors and controls the operation status of pathways and modules in real time. Once unauthorized modification, bypassing, or unauthorized operation is detected, the corresponding module is immediately isolated to ensure the overall security of the data center. When multiple modules are running in a cluster, the fixed execution pathway automatically completes computing power allocation, timing synchronization, and collaborative scheduling without software intervention. When modules are plugged in or replaced, the circuit synchronously triggers voltage regulation protection, ensuring uninterrupted operation of the data center throughout the entire process.

[0020] The hardware circuits and connection methods not described in detail in this embodiment are all conventional technical means well known to those skilled in the art. Those skilled in the art can completely reproduce this technical solution without creative effort by following the contents of the specification.
