On November 3, the 2022 Yunqi Conference opened in Yunqi Town, Hangzhou.
Thousands of heavyweight guests, more than 60 science and technology summits and forums, and more than 1,000 new technology products released... The Yunqi Conference has attracted much attention from the outside world before it even started. At today's Yunqi Conference, many experts, scholars and industry representatives discussed the computing power of cloud computing .
On the morning of the same day, Alibaba Cloud Intelligent President Zhang Jianfeng publicly stated that the self-developed CPU ( central processing unit ) chip Yitian 710 has been deployed on a large scale within the Alibaba Cloud data center and has successfully supported multiple core businesses such as Double 11 in 2021. At the same time, Zhang Jianfeng also said that 20% of the new computing power of Alibaba Cloud will use self-developed CPUs in the next two years.
In addition, as a popular concept in cloud computing in recent years, low code has further lowered the development threshold, and , a mobile office platform under Alibaba , is vigorously promoting the popularization of low code.
"DingTalk is the next generation application development platform." Zhang Jianfeng said that the number of low-code applications on DingTalk has exceeded 5 million, and the number of low-code developers has exceeded 3.8 million. Zhang Jianfeng said that in the future, 80% of applications will be developed by business personnel through low code.
self-developed CPU scale deployment, cloud computing transformation is underestimated
As the current chip competition is in full swing, Alibaba's semiconductor company flat-headed has attracted much attention.
In 2021, Alibaba Pingtou Ge released its first CPU chip, Yitian 710. This chip is developed for cloud scenarios, while taking into account performance and ease of use. At that time, the performance of Yitian 710 was 20% higher than the industry benchmark and the energy efficiency ratio was more than 50%.
After one year of business verification, its self-developed CPU Yitian 710 has been deployed on a large scale in the data center, and serves Alibaba and many Internet technology companies in the form of cloud, achieving major breakthroughs in computing power.
During the Double 11 period in 2021, Tmall Double 11 core trading system was smoothly migrated to the Yitian 710 cloud instance, with the cost-effectiveness of computing power increased by 30%; Huili Technology's advertising inference business used the Yitian 710 cloud instance, and the performance and network bandwidth were both improved, with the cost-effectiveness increased by more than 40%.

With the improvement of hardware such as CPU, the role of cloud computing will be explored to a greater extent.
Zhang Jianfeng said that after more than ten years of development, the changes brought about by cloud computing are still seriously underestimated, and it is forming a brand new computing system.
Zhang Jianfeng believes that the new computing system with cloud computing as the core is bringing three major changes: first, the cloud reconstructs the entire IT hardware system, and the industrial chains such as data centers, chips, and servers have undergone profound changes; second, the software R&D paradigm has undergone profound changes, and trends such as Serverless, low code, and AI big model open source have greatly improved software production efficiency; finally, the integration of cloud and the end is accelerated, and computing power has been transferred from the end to the cloud, and everything in the future is a computer.
"On DingTalk is going to the cloud"
In today's conference, another focus of discussion was DingTalk, a subsidiary of Alibaba.
Two years ago, Alibaba announced a new round of strategic adjustments, upgrading DingTalk to a major DingTalk business unit, and fully integrate with Alibaba Cloud. Now, the Yunting integration strategy has come to a test.
At this Yunqi Conference, Ye Jun, vice president of Alibaba (BABA) Group and president of DingTalk, announced the key achievements since the implementation of the Alibaba Cloud Talk integration strategy: in the past two years, the number of large customers with more than 1,000 people has increased by 3 times; as of the end of September 2022, the number of low-code applications on DingTalk has exceeded 5 million, and the number of low-code developers has exceeded 3.8 million.
"Going to DingTalk is going to the cloud". Ye Jun said that the integration of cloud and DingTalk has enabled enterprises to increase their perception and frequency of cloud usage, and has significantly increased the demand for cloud and DingTalk.At present, large enterprises such as Luhua Group, Bosideng , Shanghai Mitsubishi Elevator , Libai , Belle Fashion, Mengniu , Fosun, XP and other major companies have chosen "cloud nail integration" to carry out in-depth digitalization. The key move in implementing the integrated cloud nail strategy is to promote the popularization of low-code development methods. In this regard, Zhang Jianfeng also said that in the future, 80% of applications will be developed by business personnel through low code. It will become the norm for front-line business personnel to develop cloud applications on platforms like DingTalk in a low-code manner.
In the past, the large number of system construction required by industrial Internet was basically solved by professional IT personnel, but the person who knows best what kind of information system should be built is an employee in a business position. Low-code development allows front-line employees in enterprises who understand business to develop rich business systems through dragging and pulling methods to digitize the work at hand.
In Guangxi Liugang , a worker in the annealing workshop of the cold rolling mill developed a dangerous area management application on DingTalk in ten minutes. Only work tasks or equipment repair personnel can scan their faces and enter; at Huanghua Middle School in Gulin County, Sichuan Province, rural mathematics teacher Peng Long developed 43 software with low code on DingTalk, which can build an application in as fast as 1 hour, and build a digital campus at extremely low cost...
"If you don't understand low code in the future, you will not use word twenty years ago. DingTalk is the next generation of application development platform, making application construction more agile and making cloud innovation more convenient." Zhang Jianfeng said. Among every 10 low-code developers, one is finance, one is personnel, and one is administration.
