Mr. Sean Yuan, Vice President of International Business and General Manager for Thailand, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, and the South Pacific region at Alibaba Cloud Intelligence, revealed that this new data center further strengthens Alibaba Cloud’s position as a leading cloud service provider in Southeast Asia. With a total of 86 Availability Zones in 28 regions worldwide, Alibaba Cloud first launched its data center in Thailand in 2022.

These two data centers will enable Alibaba Cloud to offer high-availability, scalable, flexible cloud computing products with optimized disaster recovery capabilities tailored to Thailand’s dynamic digital landscape, while adhering to strict security and regulatory standards.

Alibaba Cloud has over 140 global security and compliance certifications, ensuring that its cloud products and services are highly flexible with top-tier protection.

Supporting a Diverse Range of Clients in Thailand: Alibaba Cloud plays a crucial role in supporting several industries in Thailand, including technology, media, retail, fintech, and government. Its scalable, secure, and innovative cloud solutions help organizations improve operational efficiency, accelerate digital transformation, and better serve their customers.

True Digital Group, part of True Corporation Public Company Limited, a leading telecom tech company in Thailand, benefits from Alibaba Cloud’s reliable cloud computing products, particularly in database technology and containers, to enhance platform efficiency, stability, and scalability.

Yell Group, a leading digital creative company headquartered in Thailand, partners with Alibaba Cloud to optimize AI-Deate, an AI-powered storyboarding platform, revolutionizing creative workflows and supporting developers across 102 countries with new technology while balancing work-life challenges in the digital era.

Enhancing Business Capabilities in the Country: Alibaba Cloud has been enhancing business capabilities in Thailand by expanding its product portfolio, including Elastic Computing, Storage, Databases, Security, Networking, Data Analytics, and AI services. These solutions help address challenges across industries such as:

• The AnalyticDB cloud-native vector engine helps Thai businesses, particularly fintech and retail, build real-time solutions for retrieving relevant knowledge via large language model-based applications (RAG).
• Alibaba Cloud introduced the Alibaba Cloud Container Compute Service (ACS) to simplify and optimize workload management using Kubernetes as an interface, providing businesses with a serverless container environment for scaling operations efficiently.

Alibaba Cloud offers tailored solutions across industries and sectors, such as fintech, retail, and public services, including Workspace Elastic Desktop Service (EDS), eKYC solutions, SuperApp development capabilities, and AI-driven sustainability solutions.

Strengthening Ecosystem and Digital Capabilities in Thailand: Alibaba Cloud has fostered a strong ecosystem in Thailand by collaborating with around 70 local partners, including Cloud HM, Kaopanwa, Softdebut, Thai Data Cloud, and True IDC, to empower businesses’ digital transformation nationwide.

The company also aims to promote digital talent through partnerships with Thai universities, such as Chulalongkorn University, King Mongkut's University of Technology Thonburi, Prince of Songkla University, and Bangkok University. These collaborations offer cloud computing and generative AI workshops and certified courses.

In late 2023, Alibaba Cloud launched its first Global Skills Center at Chulalongkorn University, providing free training courses, boot camps, AI competitions, and leadership development programs. These initiatives are part of Alibaba Cloud's continuous effort to enhance educational resources and support a thriving digital landscape through collaborations with institutions across different countries.
