Intel, Alibaba announce partnership on cloud, ICV, IoT

Shanghai (Gasgoo)- Intel and Alibaba announced on September 20 a series of cooperations that aim to speed up deployments in such sectors as big data, autonomous driving and IoT (Internet of Things), etc. The announcements were released at the 2018 Computing Conference in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province.

Two parties plan to co-launch the Joint Edge Computing Platform (JECP), a new open architecture that integrates Intel's software, hardware and latest AI technologies as well as Alibaba Cloud's IoT platform and operating system, to provide the tailored IoT solutions based on corresponding computing scenarios. The JECP can turn the edge data into timely business insights by employing computer visions and other AI technologies.

Meanwhile, the two companies also unveiled the Apsara Stack Industrial Alliance, which will focus on building an ecosystem of cloud solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises. Companies are allowed to locally operate the hybrid cloud platform that is completely consistent with the super-large cloud computing and big data services offered by Alibaba's public cloud platform.

As part of the preparation for Singles' Day on November 11, Alibaba said it will try Intel's next-generation Xeon scalable processor and the forthcoming Optane Data Center Persistent Memory to sustain the workload for Alibaba Tair, an open source distributed scalable cache platform.

On the ICV (intelligent-connected vehicle) side of things, Intel officially became a strategic partner of Alibaba's AliOS in the vehicle infrastructure cooperative strategy. The newly-unveiled strategy aims to build a smart expressway supported by digital and intelligent transportation systems. Besides, Intel and Alibaba will jointly explore the V2X models with regard to 5G communications and the Xeon processor-based edge computing platform.
