Alibaba Cloud unveils full-stack data and AI infrastructure upgrades for the agent era at Yunqi Conference
At the Yunqi Conference, Alibaba Cloud announced a full-stack upgrade of its data and AI infrastructure aimed at the agent era, covering model production, deployment, and self-optimization. The release includes full-modal data processing in MaxCompute and EMR that cuts embodied AI data processing time by 40% and can turn petabyte-scale raw data into LeRobot or RLDS training sets, plus PAI-DLC 3.0 with Xfuse auto-tuning for 2.4x faster end-to-end multimodal training. New agent-facing services include OpenLake/Agentic Lake, ADA, PAI-InferX, PAI-RLS, Flink Streaming Agent, and PAI-CrystalLLM.
Alibaba Cloud CTO Li Feifei framed the stack around Model, Context, and Harness, while Noematrix chief scientist Lü Jun discussed embodied AI data quality and iteration cycles.
