On August 7th, Alibaba Cloud Serverless Application Engine (SAE) 2.0 was officially launched for public beta! The fully upgraded SAE 2.0 has the three advantages of minimalist experience, open standards, and extreme flexibility . The cold start of the application improves the overall efficiency, and the creation and release of the application is completed in seconds, and the application cost is reduced by more than 40%.
In addition, Alibaba Cloud has also brought new upgrades to various products such as container service serverless version, function computing, the eighth-generation high-frequency computing instance, and office security platform SASE, which further lowers the threshold for enterprises to use the cloud and make application development easier. Simple.
** Ding Yu, head of Alibaba Cloud's cloud-native application platform, said that ** cost is one of the core concerns of enterprises migrating to the cloud. Alibaba Cloud further releases technological dividends, continues to promote serverless full-stack products, and uses technology and innovation to benefit more small and medium-sized enterprises. Enterprises and developers, reduce the cost of innovation.
Alibaba Cloud Serverless Application Engine (SAE) 2.0 is an application hosting platform with zero code modification, extremely easy to use, and self-adaptive flexibility.
On SAE 2.0, users no longer need to care about complex infrastructure. They only need to upload code packages or container images to complete online business full hosting. SAE 2.0 will automatically run applications and scale instances, and provide supporting facilities such as network, load balancing, and monitoring. ability.
This upgrade of SAE 2.0 brings three new capabilities:
- The product is easier to use, the application is launched with zero modification, zero learning cost, the creation and release of the application is completed in seconds, and the payment is made according to the actual usage, and the application cost is reduced by more than 40%;
- Secondly, the standards are more open, based on container standards and core capabilities are open source, providing rich platform engineering capabilities and helping R&D, operation and maintenance to improve efficiency by 50%;
- In terms of elasticity, SAE 2.0 achieves 100-millisecond-level elastic scaling, adaptively adjusts resource usage according to traffic, improves application cold start efficiency, supports shrinking to 0, and does not need to pay if there is no business traffic. This is very important for emerging businesses. And some innovative and entrepreneurial companies are more friendly.
At the same time, Alibaba Cloud has also brought a brand-new serverless version of container service, which has made a lot of optimizations for K8s, improved elasticity, supports dynamic capacity planning, and fully hosts K8s core system components.
At the same time, the intelligent elastic prediction AHPA has been upgraded. Compared with manual configuration, the accuracy rate has increased by 80%. Based on inventory-aware scheduling and availability zone dispersal scheduling, the certainty of elasticity and the high availability of applications have been improved, enabling thousands of enterprises and developers. Use the cloud more conveniently and more elastically.
Aiming at the current very popular AIGC field, Alibaba Cloud has also upgraded the Function Compute FC, a highly integrated large model framework. Developers can easily deploy models from open source ecology and communities such as ModelScope and HuggingFace on Function Computing. Currently, Function Computing is the application center More than 10 popular AI application templates such as Stable Diffusion, Tongyi Qianwen, and Tongyi Wan have been added to it, greatly reducing the threshold for application development of large models.
In addition to the new upgrade of Serverless products, Alibaba Cloud also brought a new eighth-generation high-frequency computing instance hfg8i.
Based on Alibaba Cloud's "Feitian + CIPU" computing architecture, it adopts the first fourth-generation Xeon SPR processor in China. The full-core turbo frequency can reach 3.9Ghz. The single-core performance is 60% higher than that of the previous generation. It fully supports eRDMA capabilities. The network delay is as low as 8 microseconds, which brings all-round computing power improvement and helps enterprises easily cope with computing power-intensive scenarios such as multiplayer online games, industrial simulation, and live video broadcasting.
In addition, the SASE zero-trust VPN version of the office security platform is mainly for the light use of large enterprises and the needs of small and medium-sized enterprises, and meets the four scenarios of zero-trust remote office, office data protection, office network access, and global office networking. . Compared with the standard version, the Zero Trust VPN version mainly reduces the number of VPC connections, limits the concurrent bandwidth, and reduces the price by 90%, which can meet the business travel and remote access needs of teams of less than 500 people.
At present, Alibaba Cloud has attracted more than 10 million developers, served 600 universities and 3 million innovative and entrepreneurial enterprises, and provided a wealth of atomized services through Serverless technology. Advantages greatly reduce the complexity of using the cloud.
Serverless makes the cloud the best platform for application construction, helping more enterprises to bridge the technological gap, obtain technological dividends, and gain competitive advantages.
