Ship the Next: Agentic Cloud for AI Innovation | Alibaba Cloud | RAISE Summit 2026

Qwen 3.7 Flash: A 30-billion parameter open-source model released to support derivative work, fine-tuning, and easy inference.
Qwen 3.7 Max: The current flagship model optimized for agentic use cases (tool and function calling), coding, and multimodal input/output (visual and text).
Video Generation Suite:
- Video 2.7: Capable of reference-based video and video-to-video generation.
- Happy Horse 1.1: Recently released with improvements in motion coherence, character consistency, instruction following, and visual fidelity.
- Happy Oyster: A "world model" allowing users to input images to create navigable virtual worlds for avatars.
Open Source Commitment: Qwen remains the most downloaded open-source model globally; Alibaba commits to releasing updates and supporting the derivative ecosystem.

Model Aggregation: The new "Qwen Cloud" integrates over 80 commercial and open-source models (including GLM, DeepSeek, and Kimmy) under a consistent API.
Agent Skills: Agents can subscribe to cloud skills beyond models, accessing storage, compute, networking, databases, and big data engines.
Cost Control: Introduction of predictive billing to allow real-time monitoring and cost management across different model deployments.
Usage Metrics: Alibaba Cloud dedicated over 2 million vCPU cores to agents within a few weeks early in the year.
Analyst Projections: Forecasts suggest future organizations will operate with agent-to-human ratios as high as 80:1, necessitating scalable infrastructure.

Container-Native Sandbox: Agents run in isolated pods starting at 0.5 vCPU and 1 GB of memory, capable of elastic scaling up or down.
Scaling Capacity: Infrastructure supports spinning up to 10,000 sandboxes per minute.
Memory Optimization: Idle agents utilize "hibernation" via memory dumping to disk, waking only upon interaction to reduce resource usage.
Client Savings: Customers report up to 70% cost reduction when hosting agentic workloads on Alibaba Cloud compared to standard configurations.

Coder: A local software environment for "vibe coding" and work automation (research, reporting, presentation generation) that operates on the user's laptop.
Coder Work: A platform enabling teams of 5-7 people to build software using only specifications rather than code, leveraging AI agents for development, testing, and deployment.
- Development Timeline: The platform was built in seven days by a five-person team.
- Market Traction: Over 5 million users and 10,000 organizations adopted Coder Work within less than a year, maintained by a team of under 100 people.
Differentiation Factors:
- Intelligent Scheduling: Dynamically selects the most cost-effective model for specific tasks to manage token costs.
- Spec-Driven Programming: Shifts developer focus from writing code to defining specifications and acceptance criteria.
- Local Knowledge Engine: Continuously learns from a user's specific codebase and coding style.

Silicon自主研发: Alibaba is one of two hyperscalers designing its own GPUs and Cloud Processing Units (CPUs), optimizing the stack from hardware to software.
Training Dominance: Over 50% of AI innovations in China are developed and trained on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure.
Global Data Center Growth: Planned to quadruple data center capacity outside China within the next two years.
- Asia-Pacific: Maintains #1 market position.
- Americas: Operations active in Mexico; São Paulo region upcoming.
- Europe: Paris region launched with dual availability zones (adding to existing Frankfurt and UK regions).
European Strategy: Positioned as a competitive alternative to US hyperscalers due to end-to-end vertical optimization and competitive price-performance ratios.
Future Roadmap: Current expansion roadmap does not include Poland, though potential interest has been noted for future evaluation.

Model Availability: Booth access and trials for Alibaba's foundation models are available to attendees.
Europe Expansion: Confirmed lack of immediate plans for Poland, but flagged as a potential future opportunity for expansion.
