Xinchuang Support
BabelBird is compatible with ITAI/Xinchuang environments. Both the BabelBird Enterprise Drive server and Zhichao AI private deployment can be planned for Xinchuang infrastructure. The final design should consider existing infrastructure, database licensing, CPU architecture, operating system, middleware, storage and AI compute resources.
General Recommendation
x86 CPUs are recommended first for BabelBird server and Zhichao AI private deployment. The x86 ecosystem usually has more mature software compatibility, driver support, model inference toolchains and operational experience, making it suitable for most production environments.
BabelBird is also compatible with ARM environments and can be adapted for Kunpeng, Feiteng ARM and similar server architectures. Before choosing ARM, evaluate compatibility for databases, middleware, search components, object storage, AI inference frameworks and third-party drivers.
Server Support
The BabelBird server can run in environments that support containerized or Linux service deployment. Common Xinchuang operating systems include openEuler, Kylin and UOS. Deployment mode can be stand-alone, clustered, object-storage based or hybrid depending on scale.
| Layer | Standard deployment | Xinchuang x86 option | Xinchuang ARM option | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPU architecture | x86 | Hygon, Zhaoxin and other x86 Xinchuang servers | Kunpeng, Feiteng ARM and similar | Evaluate x86 first for production |
| Operating system | Validated Ubuntu / openEuler releases | openEuler, Kylin, UOS | ARM editions of openEuler, Kylin, UOS | Depends on container, kernel and driver compatibility |
| Application service | Tomcat and similar | Tomcat, TongWeb and similar | Tomcat or adapted middleware | Third-party middleware licensing must be confirmed |
| Search component | Elasticsearch | Xinchuang-compatible edition | ARM-compatible edition | Used for full-text search, OCR indexing and log search |
| Cache | Redis | Redis or compatible components | Redis/ARM-compatible components | Confirm high-availability design |
| Object storage | MinIO or third-party object storage | MinIO, domestic object storage or enterprise storage | MinIO ARM or compatible object storage | Should follow private storage architecture |

Database Support
In Xinchuang environments, BabelBird supports MySQL-compatible databases by default. GreatSQL, GaussDB for MySQL, AliSQL, TiDB and other MySQL-compatible solutions are recommended for priority evaluation. Database selection should focus on transactions, character sets, indexes, connection pools, backup/restore, replication or clustering, high availability and operations tooling.
BabelBird can also integrate with Dameng, Kingbase, GBase and other domestic databases. These databases usually require compatibility development, SQL adaptation, performance validation and regression testing. Enterprises also need to purchase the database license separately and cover the database compatibility development cost.
Zhichao AI Private Deployment
Zhichao AI private deployment can also be planned for Xinchuang environments. Compared with the regular drive server, AI deployment must additionally evaluate model runtime, GPU/AI accelerator cards, drivers, inference frameworks, vector retrieval, OCR, text-to-image search, image-to-image search and knowledge-base indexing.
Confirm before implementation:
- Whether to use traditional OCR or AI OCR.
- Whether private large models, embedding models, multimodal models and knowledge-base robots will be deployed.
- Whether GPU or AI accelerator cards have drivers and inference framework support for the selected Xinchuang system.
- Whether model services and drive business services should be deployed separately.
- Whether AI indexes, caches, logs and audit data meet enterprise compliance requirements.
Client Support
| Platform | File synchronization | Mapped drive | Local editing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windows | Supported | Supported | Local editing documentation |
| macOS | Supported | Supported | Local editing documentation |
| Kylin | Supported; the same sync capabilities as Windows/macOS | Not supported | Supported |
| Other Linux desktops | Supported; the same sync capabilities as Kylin and Windows/macOS | Not supported | Supported |

Clients for Linux distributions provide the same capabilities: file synchronization and local editing, without mapped drives. Install the build for the relevant distribution and processor architecture. Web and mobile access do not synchronize local computer folders. Custom development requires separate evaluation and is not a standard feature.
Selection And Implementation Guidance
- Confirm required CPU, operating system, database and middleware lists first.
- For MySQL-compatible databases, test connection, transactions, indexes, character sets, backup/restore and performance.
- For non-MySQL-compatible databases, reserve adaptation development and regression testing time.
- For Zhichao AI private deployment, evaluate models, GPU, OCR, multimodal and vector retrieval resources separately.
- Prepare disaster recovery, backup, logs, monitoring, upgrade and rollback plans for production.
- Confirm in advance whether clients need synchronized folders, mapped drives and local editing integration.
