MINISFORUM Showcases Full-Scenario Edge AI Solutions at the 2026 "Internet Light" Expo

On November 2, the 2026 "Light of the Internet" Expo, an important part of the World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit, opened in Wuzhen, Zhejiang. With the theme "Intelligent Connectivity, Intelligent Vision of the Future," this year's expo attracted 671 companies from 54 countries and regions to exhibit, showcasing and releasing more than 1,000 new technologies and new products. Domestic high-performance mini PC manufacturer MINISFORUM appeared with local AI hardware solutions, demonstrating the practical value of AI hardware in local model deployment, data processing, and scenario applications.

Under the theme "Local AI Starts Here," MINISFORUM brought products including AI workstations, edge workstations, and AI NAS, presenting a product portfolio spanning model operation, on-site business processing, and data storage; products such as the AI X1 Pro, M2 Pro, MS-03, all-flash S5, and T5 Max were also exhibited, covering more forms and uses.

At the center of the booth, a four-machine cluster composed of four MS-S1 MAX AI workstations became the focus. Another meaning of "Local AI Starts Here" is to let the scale of local AI grow together with the business: a single MS-S1 MAX supports up to 128GB of unified memory and can allocate 96GB as VRAM, enough to run models with tens of billions of parameters on an intranet; and when enterprises need to run larger models and build a more complete internal knowledge base, four machines pool memory and computing power through clustering, further expanding local AI capacity without moving data to the cloud—the multi-machine cluster approach is precisely for running larger models. Starting from one machine and scaling on demand to four machines or more, the boundary of local AI is no longer the upper limit of a single piece of hardware, but the room for business growth.

The local AI NAS N5 MAX offers storage expansion of up to 200TB, capable of centrally storing business materials and, combined with local AI, building a local knowledge base and performing semantic search, so that materials not only "can be stored," but also "can be activated," and can be "found" more intelligently.

In front of the booth, the head of a team working on private knowledge bases stopped for a long time in front of the four-machine cluster, and his first question was very direct: "Our customers are most worried about data going to the cloud and privacy leaks. With your solution, does the data actually leave the intranet?" After receiving the answer "fully local, never leaving the intranet," he followed up with a question about the cluster's expansion cost before leaving with the materials.

This year's expo will run until November 5. Visitors are welcome to go to Booth A3-1318 to experience the products and inquire about the "Lighthouse Program" experience machine recruitment. In the future, MINISFORUM will continue to improve local AI and edge computing products, making it easier for AI to enter enterprises' daily business.
