The Guangdong Cloud Computing Center was established by the Nanhai Science and Technology Bureau in Foshan under the Chinese government's policy of promoting industrialization through advanced information technology. The center is located in Guangdong's financial services and high-tech zone, providing services to companies in local industries such as automobiles, furniture, and ceramics.
