Alibaba Cloud accelerates AI expansion overseas, launches Qwen Cloud and MuleRun for international markets.

On May 26, Alibaba Cloud launched a new AI product website Qwen Cloud and Agent product MuleRun for the overseas market in Singapore, as well as a series of updates for the intelligent body programming platform Qoder and the general desktop intelligent body QoderWork, synchronously upgrading cloud infrastructure for Agents. Alibaba Cloud stated that they are undergoing a full stack upgrade for the overseas market, covering models, gateways, Agent products, and cloud infrastructure, allowing global developers to seamlessly access Alibaba Cloud's AI capabilities. Qwen Cloud is a new AI product website launched by Alibaba Cloud for the overseas market, following the domestic Qianwen Cloud. It is not a traditional AI submodule in the cloud console, but a new cloud product gateway designed for the Agent era. Alibaba Cloud encapsulates core capabilities such as model services and inference calls into standardized Skills and CLI tools, allowing intelligent bodies to directly interpret commands, autonomously learn all the capabilities of the platform, and call them as needed. Qwen Cloud adopts a three-gateway design - a website for developers to browse, try, compare models, and access OpenAI-compatible APIs; Skills encapsulate platform capabilities into standardized instructions readable by Agents; CLI provides developers and intelligent bodies with a stable and repeatable command-line operation layer. MuleRun supports multiple Agents working in parallel, task decomposition, and collaboration, with built-in standardized Skills modules covering code generation, data analysis, document processing, image and video generation, and other scenarios. The Qoder programming platform has been online for 9 months, with over 5 million global users. With the official release of Qoder 1.0, it has been fully upgraded from IDE to Desktop and a new Quest mode has been launched. In addition, Qoder has released the digital employee product QoderWake for the first time and started public testing, enabling organizations to have a group of production-ready, secure, controllable, and continuously evolving digital employees, helping AI Native organizations transform and upgrade towards 10 times productivity improvement. In recent years, Alibaba Cloud has continued to increase its investment in globalization, accelerating the global expansion of infrastructure, products, and technology. Since October last year, Alibaba Cloud has completed the expansion of data centers in Japan and Singapore, and will establish new regional nodes in the Netherlands and Brazil in the future, as well as expand data centers in Mexico, South Korea, Malaysia, and Dubai. Currently, Alibaba Cloud has 31 regions and 101 availability zones worldwide. According to Gartner data, Alibaba Cloud is the largest cloud service provider in China and the number one in the Asia-Pacific region, with a 20-fold growth in the overseas market size over the past five years.
