As a domestically produced high-performance AI model, the DeepSeek model has the characteristics of strong reasoning ability, low training cost, support for multi-tasking and localized deployment. Its core technologies, such as chained thinking reasoning (COT) and multi-expert hybrid architecture (MOE), significantly improve the efficiency of logical analysis and complex problem processing. At the same time, through open source strategies and hardware adaptation optimization, it reduces the deployment threshold of educational institutions. In primary and secondary education, DeepSeek is widely used in intelligent lesson preparation, personalized learning, homework grading and classroom management, such as automatic generation of lesson plans, layered exercise design, real-time Q&A and learning situation analysis, helping teachers save time and accurately adapt to students' needs. With the decline in AI chip costs and policy promotion, DeepSeek is expected to further integrate functions such as virtual teaching assistants and interdisciplinary collaboration, become a standard feature of smart campuses, promote the universalization and intelligent transformation of education, and is expected to form large-scale applications soon, covering more primary and secondary schools . At present, the most controllable and cost-effective way for schools to use the DeepSeek model is to use the DeepSeek campus intelligent computing machine.
Since the Spring Festival, many well-known hardware manufacturers have launched DeepSeek all-in-one products, which are different from DeepSeek Campus Intelligent Computing All-in-One in terms of performance, cost, industry adaptability, etc. For primary and secondary schools, choosing DeepSeek Campus Intelligent Computing All-in-One is more in line with actual needs.


1. General DeepSeek all-in-one machine



1. Diversified hardware configuration:



-Computing power support: Generally, DeepSeek all-in-one machines use domestic Ascend chips or NVIDIA graphics cards, such as Huawei Ascend 8-card and 16-card solutions. A single machine is often equipped with 8-32 AI chips, with a memory capacity of hundreds of GB and a storage disk that supports TB-level data storage.



-Software ecosystem: Built-in self-developed inference acceleration engine, supports model training, inference and knowledge base management, and is compatible with multiple AI frameworks (such as PyTorch, TensorFlow).



2. Core functions and advantages:



-Full stack independent and controllable: using domestic chips and algorithms, complying with the information and innovation policy, and ensuring data security.



-High performance and flexibility: The measured inference performance reaches the world-class level, supporting flexible deployment of models from full-blooded version to distilled version, and adapting to complex scenarios such as finance, medical care, and government affairs.



-Data privacy protection: Localized deployment ensures that sensitive data does not leave the domain, meeting the high security requirements of industries such as military and medical.



3. Application scenarios and value:



-Industry application: It is widely used in financial anti-fraud, government affairs "one-stop service", energy resource scheduling, intelligent manufacturing and other fields, and achieves deep business integration through secondary development.



- Economic value: The price of a single machine ranges widely (from hundreds of thousands to several million yuan) , with central state-owned enterprises as the main customer group. The market size is expected to exceed 500 billion yuan in 2027.



However, the general DeepSeek all-in-one machine is not suitable for primary and secondary school campuses with limited budgets and vertical scenes.

3. Comparison between DeepSeek Campus Intelligent Computing Machine and General DeepSeek All-in - One Machine



1. Hardware specifications:



- The campus version is mainly low-end configuration, such as the 70B model equipped with dual NVIDIA 4090 48G GPU (128G memory), priced at 70,000-250,000 yuan ; while the general DeepSeek all-in-one machine (such as China Telecom's "Xiran") uses the Ascend 32 card solution, priced at millions of yuan .



-Computing power adaptation: The campus version focuses on lightweight AI tasks (such as text generation and image creation), while the general DeepSeek all-in-one machine is aimed at large-scale training and reasoning.



2. Scenario-specific:



-Campus Edition: Built-in educational resource library and teaching management functions (such as intelligent lesson preparation and homework grading), and supports API docking for educational applications.



-General version: covers a wider range of industries, such as personalized medical services and financial anti-fraud, and functional modules require secondary development.



3. Pricing and deployment model:



- The campus version provides buyout and monthly lease (one-year minimum) models to reduce the school's initial investment costs; the general version mostly adopts a buyout system, which is suitable for central state-owned enterprises with sufficient budgets.



4. Core advantages of DeepSeek campus intelligent computing machine in campus scenarios



1. Deep adaptation of educational scenarios:



The built-in educational resource library and teaching tool chain support the construction of a school-based knowledge base, optimizing the allocation of teaching resources and student situation analysis. For example, a certain school has achieved intelligent test-taking and automated student situation analysis through localized deployment.


2. Low cost and high cost performance:



The price is only 1/10 to 1/5 of that of a general all-in-one machine , and it supports a rental model, which is suitable for the budget constraints of educational institutions.


3. Out-of-the-box AI services:



It provides "one-click" intelligent question and answer, code generation, and document creation functions without the need for complex development. For example, a certain school 's "E Assistant" answers learning questions through dialogue.


4. Data security and localization:



Local deployment ensures that students' privacy data is not leaked, and at the same time supports seamless connection with campus management systems (such as academic affairs and logistics) to improve management efficiency.


5. Prediction of the development trend of campus intelligent computing machines



1. Technology popularization:



As the cost of domestic AI chips decreases (such as Moore's Threads and Muxi solution optimization), the hardware performance of the campus version will be further improved, and the price will further drop, covering more primary and secondary schools.


2. Deepening of functional scenarios:



In the future, it may be possible to integrate virtual teaching assistants, AI video analysis, and cross-disciplinary collaborative intelligent entities, for example, to expand the functions of digital humans in teaching.


3. Ecological expansion and standardization:



Combined with the open source ecosystem (such as the DeepSeek-R1 model), we will promote the formation of standardized AI application templates in the education industry and lower the development threshold.


4. Policy-driven popularization:



Driven by the "Artificial Intelligence Empowering Education" policy, the campus version may become the standard for smart campuses, and the size of the AI ​​market in the education field is expected to grow significantly in 2027.


Generally, DeepSeek all-in-one machines focus on high performance and industry versatility, while DeepSeek Campus Intelligent Computing All-in-One Machine accurately meets school needs through educational scene optimization, low cost and localized deployment. In the future, with technological iteration and policy support, DeepSeek Campus Intelligent Computing All-in-One Machine is expected to achieve breakthroughs in function deepening and market penetration, becoming a key infrastructure for the intelligent transformation of education.
