Alibaba Cloud plans to more than double its global capacity for modular data centers in 2026, as demand for AI computing infrastructure continues to grow. The cloud-computing arm of Alibaba Group said its modular approach can support the deployment of large AI data centers in about 100 days.
The company said the standardized design can reduce construction costs by more than 10% compared with traditional data center development. The expansion will focus on increasing the speed and scale of Alibaba Cloud’s AI infrastructure deployment across global markets. [21st Century Business Herald, in Chinese]
