Ship The Next: Alibaba Cloud Agent Builder Day
Your agent made it to production. Now the real work begins.
Most clouds were built for apps. Agents need something different: a stack where the model, the runtime, and the infrastructure were designed together. Alibaba Cloud rebuilt from the foundation up — the Qwen and Wan model family for language reasoning, video and image generation, and code; model services; and an agent-native cloud layer — so that every generation of agent workloads gets the scale, latency, and security production demands.
These models are paired with a full agent infrastructure layer that turns six hard production realities into managed capabilities: runtime, orchestration, governance, security, memory, and data plane. At the agent computing runtime layer, that stack runs on AMD EPYC processors — the silicon built for high concurrency and rapid start-up/shut-down cycles.
Together with AMD, we are bringing that stack to builders everywhere. Whether you are running a platform serving hundreds of thousands of users or starting from a single idea, join us to explore the architecture, meet the teams, and ship the next.
Who it's for
