AI as the growth driver of the cloud
Alibaba pursues the goal of transforming its cloud division through generative AI and advanced models such as Qwen. The powerful models are integrated into the Alibaba cloud platform via APIs and drive growth in the cloud business with double-digit growth. The integration of AI should both automate processes and enable personalized customer experiences, as the specialist magazine IT BoltWise explains.
Billion -dollar investments for technological independence
Alibaba has announced that it will invest around $ 53 billion (around 380 billion yuan) in AI and cloud technologies in the next three years. The investment volume clearly exceeds the technological expenditure of the last decade and is intended to ensure long -term competitiveness. Even if the share fluctuates at short notice, the measure is a clear course in the direction of technological independence. “In view of the rapidly growing demand for AI in all industries, we want to further expand our AI infrastructure and our cloud capacities,” explained Selina Yuan, President of International Business, on the Alibaba Cloud Global Innovation Summit in Paris.
New data centers in Asia and Latin America
As part of its global infrastructure strategy, the Alibaba Group builds new data centers in Mexico, Malaysia, in the Philippines, in Thailand and South Korea. In Southeast Asia, the demand for cloud and AI services is growing rapidly. A third data center in Malaysia was recently opened, while a second in the Philippines is to be built until October 2025. A second center in Seoul will also be opened in South Korea by mid -2025 to strengthen the regional presence.
