Full speed ahead on expanding domestic demand: Steering up China’s economy

Published

on

BEIJING, March 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A news report by China.org.cn on China’s economy:

 

At the annual “two sessions” in 2023, the “Report on the Work of the Government” was delivered, in which “expanding domestic demand” is placed at the top of this year’s government work agenda. Expanding domestic demand is indeed the key to propelling China’s economy to look up, while it’s also meaningful for stabilizing global economic growth.

If we look back on 2022, the COVID-19 pandemic cast a pall over the domestic demand in China, especially its consumption demand. According to China’s National Bureau of Statistics, domestic demand contributed a mere 1 percentage point to China’s GDP growth in 2022, while the number was around 4 in the several years leading up to the pandemic. The sluggish growth of consumption has become a key constraining factor in China’s domestic demand expansion as well as its economic growth.

As the influence of the pandemic wanes, however, China’s consumption has resumed recovery. During the Spring Festival, hotels in popular tourist destinations were almost booked out, and restaurants all over China also saw a great increase in customers. All these phenomena have given people confidence for China’s consumption to regain its momentum.

Besides, the “Report on the Work of the Government” also mentioned China’s incentive policies for new forms and new models of consumer spending, including reducing vehicle purchase tax, which has proven effective in spurring the purchase of vehicles. The government took measures to incentivize the selling of green and smart appliances, and green building materials in rural areas. These measures will continue to showcase effect, for rural residents now enjoy a window in upgrading their home appliances all-round.

Meanwhile, the Chinese government has been encouraging investment in recent years, with a particular focus on investment in facilities that will further stimulate consumption. For example, by encouraging the revamp and upgrade of piping systems in cities as well as the further provision of water supply and plumbing systems in rural areas, residents are then expected to generate greater consumption of a higher quality in water-use related areas; by encouraging the construction of broader road infrastructure in rural areas, vehicle consumption as well as logistical efficiency in rural areas are expected to improve; by encouraging telecom service carriers to accelerate network building in rural areas, rural residents are more likely to make purchases via e-commerce platforms. In this year’s “Report on the Work of the Government”, there are also plans to continue relevant projects, in a bid to further marry rising investments with spurring consumption.

As the world’s second largest economy, China’s accelerating economic growth itself is contributing to the global growth. China’s burgeoning investment and consumption will for sure augment the demand for goods and services from other economies, which means a larger import volume, therefore helping other economies to achieve growth steadily. What’s more, with Chinese tourists returning to global tourism, their consumption in the destination markets will also pick up.

In a nutshell, China is stepping up efforts to expand domestic demand, prioritizing the revitalization and increase of consumption. This will not only help improve China’s economy, but also continuously inject powerful impetus into the global economy.

Arcfra Releases AKE 1.6 to Enhance Production Kubernetes Operations and Network Management

Published

By

SINGAPORE, June 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Arcfra announces the release of Arcfra Kubernetes Engine (AKE) version 1.6, the latest version of its production-grade container management and service platform.

This release improves Kubernetes operational efficiency and strengthens production network management. AKE 1.6 introduces form-based visual management for Kubernetes resources, enabling users to deploy and manage applications without writing complex YAML files. It also supports separation of workload cluster management networks from service networks and multiple network interfaces for Pods, helping enterprises address security isolation, compliance, and high-performance networking requirements.

Form-Based Visual Management for Kubernetes Resources

AKE 1.6 introduces form-based deployment and management for Kubernetes resources, allowing users to complete common application operations through the UI instead of manually writing and maintaining YAML files.

This capability brings infrastructure, Kubernetes clusters, and business applications into a unified visual management experience. Users can view related resources in a single interface, access frequent operations more directly, and reduce the complexity of managing containerized applications.

Separated Management and Service Networks for Workload Clusters

To prevent management traffic and service traffic from affecting each other, AKE 1.6 supports separating the management network from the service network for workload clusters.

In this architecture, management traffic and business service traffic are isolated into separate network planes. The container service network cannot directly route to control plane components such as the Kubernetes apiserver. Even if a container is compromised, control plane operations remain isolated, improving platform security and helping enterprises meet network isolation and compliance requirements.

Multiple Pod NICs for High-Performance and Isolated Network Access

AKE 1.6 also introduces support for configuring multiple network interfaces for Pods. This capability supports scenarios where applications need access to multiple network planes for security isolation, direct connectivity, or higher network performance.

Compared with Overlay networking, direct flat network access can reduce network overhead and deliver higher throughput and lower latency, with an approximately 20% performance improvement in applicable scenarios.

AKE: Proven in Production

AKE powers mission-critical systems for enterprises in finance, healthcare, manufacturing, e-commerce, and other sectors, including ConnectWave and Foxconn.
