ICBC's data center is housed in Shanghai.

IBM says that Active-Active's ability to have two different data centers possessing the same application and data simultaneously is what separated the platform from competitors as ICBC was going through its solution assessment. The commerical bank has also been working with the mainframe goliath for almost three decades. 

"ICBC was the first commercial bank to introduce IBM mainframe computer in Mainland China nearly 30 years ago, and since that time each new model of the IBM mainframe has played an important role in all of our IT operations," says Lin Xiaoxuan, ICBC's chief information officer. "The IBM mainframe has and will continue to help ensure the smooth and secure operations of our information systems."
