inclusiveness, so that our cloud technologies can be accessed by
companies of all sizes,” said Selina Yuan, President of Alibaba

New products and features for an “All in Cloud”
future
For businesses in the region and their pursuit of “All in Cloud”
strategies, Alibaba Cloud launched more than 10 new products and
features that are available for the first time outside of China and
can now be accessed by customers worldwide. The new product and
feature highlights include:
PolarDB: A MySQL and PostgreSQL – compatible relational
database built for the cloud that combines the performance and
availability of traditional enterprise databases at a much lower
cost. It offers excellent scalability, with the architecture of
hardware-software co-design. The solution can also scale up to
100TB in storage which helps customers manage big data development.
It can scale up to 88 vCPUs and 710GB of memory and allows
customers to pay for usage by the minute, enabling customers to
handle peak business traffic while minimizing cost.
Alibaba Log Service (SLS): SLS allows customers to
automatically collect logs from all your services, applications and
platforms, irrespective of whether they are on-premises or in the
cloud. SLS allows the log data to be tagged with context derived.
SLS also allows decisions to be taken on this data in near real
time for trend analysis, alerts or visualization.
Support of “Bring Your Own Key” (BYOK): An end-to-end
security service which provides customers encryption controls on
both hardware and software, protecting customers’ data in transit
and at rest. The new BYOK feature now supports ECS Cloud Disk, OSS
and RDS.
SaaS Accelerator: A platform where technology partners
can easily build and launch SaaS applications and leverage proven
business and technology know-how in the Alibaba Economy. The
accelerator helps SaaS providers quickly deploy and test their
applications on the cloud, shorten the implementation lifecycle,
and accelerate time-to-market. It enables ecosystem partners, such
as enterprises in the e-commerce, lodging, and travel industries,
to quickly reach their customers on Alibaba platforms. It also
defines three centers for the SaaS ecosystem: the commercial
center, the capability center, and the technology center.
Smart Access Gateway (SAG) Software: An app that allows
endpoint devices such as cell phones, POS and laptops to securely
get connected with Alibaba Cloud and on-premises data centers in
one click, accelerating access to enterprise applications and cloud
resources.
Container Registry (ACR) Enterprise Edition: Alibaba
Cloud Container Registry (ACR) is a fully-managed container
registry that allows developers to easily store, manage, and deploy
container images. ACR Enterprise Edition is integrated with the
Alibaba Cloud Container Service, simplifying customers’ deployment
to production workflows. It eliminates the need for customers to
operate their own container repositories or worry about scaling the
underlying infrastructure. ACR hosts customers’ container images in
a highly available and scalable architecture, where customers can
reliably deploy containers and launch applications at a global
scale.
Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK): A fully-managed
service compatible with Kubernetes to help users focus on their
applications rather than managing container infrastructure. It
provides enterprise-level high-performance and flexible management
of Kubernetes containerized applications throughout the application
lifecycle. This service simplifies cluster creation and expansion
and integrates Alibaba Cloud capabilities in virtualization,
storage, network, and security, providing an improved running
environment for Kubernetes containerized applications.
In line with its commitment to champion small businesses,
Alibaba Cloud also launched an upgraded service support campaign
designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). SME
customers will now be able to benefit from greater access to
resources and support from Alibaba Cloud. Key benefits of the
enhanced support and service include dedicated one-on-one presale
consultations, 24/7 technical support, a doubling of complimentary
tech support tickets and swifter after-sales support.
