Chinese construction workers dig tunnels in a hill for Tencent to build a data center in Guiyang city, southwest China's Guizhou province, 7 March 2018. Chinese Internet giant Tencent Holdings Ltd is building its biggest data center in southwest China's Guizhou province, according to its chairman Pony Ma Huateng, as the firm continues to mine vast amounts of data to bolster a number of businesses including its own. The construction project is currently underway in the mountainous area of the hinterland. It is only a few months before servers will be installed, Ma told a media briefing in Beijing over the weekend. "The temperature and humidity level (in Guizhou) are highly suitable for data storage. I hope to place here the most valuable and important data, such as that of the industrial cloud, " he said. Guizhou is shaping up to become China's big data valley. Apple Inc announced plans in 2017 to open its first China-based database in the province.
