数字经济通过推动生产技术变革、重构产业模式和提高产业链现代化水平促进各产业协同发展，为实现由传统经济向多元经济发展提供了现实可能，发展数字经济是党和国家着眼于经济发展变化新形势作出的重要战略部署。在此背景下，新疆经济高质量发展进程中仍存在基础设施落后、产业结构不均衡、数字产业技术滞后以及复合型人才短缺等问题，亟待从加强政策支持和基础设施建设、构建产业转型升级系统、加快数字产业研发、打破学科壁垒和加强人才引进等角度全面发力，使数字经济为实现新疆经济高质量发展作出贡献。因此，本文以新疆“八大产业集群”建设为切入点，将数字经济与新疆经济高质量发展相结合，进一步研究数字经济对于新疆经济高质量发展的重要作用，分析数字经济背景下新疆“八大产业集群”建设的困境，进一步探析新疆经济高质量发展的具体路径。

The digital economy promotes the coordinated development of various industries by promoting the transformation of production technology, restructuring the industrial model and upgrading the modernization level of the industrial chain, which provides realistic possibilities for the development of the traditional economy to the diversified economy. The development of the digital economy is an important strategic deployment made by the Party and the state to focus on the new situation of economic development and change. In this context, in the process of high-quality economic development in Xinjiang, there are still problems such as backward infrastructure, unbalanced industrial structure, lagging digital industry technology, and shortage of interdisciplinary talents. It is urgent to strengthen policy support and infrastructure construction, build industrial transformation and upgrading system, accelerate digital industry research and development, break disciplinary barriers, and strengthen talent introduction. Make the digital economy contribute to the high-quality economic development of Xinjiang. Therefore, this paper takes the construction of "eight industrial clusters" in Xinjiang as the entry point, combines digital economy with high-quality economic development in Xinjiang, further studies the important role of digital economy in high-quality economic development in Xinjiang, analyzes the difficulties in the construction of "eight industrial clusters" in Xinjiang under the background of digital economy, and further explores the specific path of high-quality economic development in Xinjiang.
