Alibaba Cloud Shortens Data Center Delivery Cycle to 100 Days, Leading Globally

Alibaba Cloud has achieved a significant reduction in the delivery cycle for large AI data centers through a full modular design architecture. Compared to the traditional serial construction mode, the new solution produces each stage in parallel, involving factory prefabrication followed by on-site hoisting, which shortens the delivery cycle from months to 100 days.

With the explosive growth in current AI computing power demand, higher requirements are placed on data center construction speed. Traditional delivery models struggle to respond quickly to market changes, whereas modular solutions not only improve efficiency but also achieve a cost reduction of over 10% in construction.

Alibaba Cloud plans to increase the global capacity of modular data centers by more than double this year. This initiative helps alleviate AI computing power supply bottlenecks, provides more timely infrastructure support for downstream large model training and inference, and promotes an overall improvement in industry computing power deployment efficiency.
