Model Studio, for your AI workloads

Procure and access models through Alibaba Cloud Model Studio. Select text, image, video and audio models by the task, version and expected usage.

TaskExample modelsApplication
Text and codeQwen3.8-Max / Kimi K3 / DeepSeekBusiness dialogue, code and reasoning
ImagesQwen-Image 3.0Product visuals and image editing
VideoWan 3.0Content generation and video production
Speech and audioQwen Audio 3.1Recognition, synthesis and real-time interaction

These are selection examples. Confirm the exact model, capabilities, region, quota and account eligibility before ordering.

Cloud resources to run the application

Application backends, containers and self-hosted workloads need an environment sized for the actual workload.

ECS

Size instances for the workload

Select CPU, memory, GPU, system and data disks alongside the required operating environment.

Delivery checks: region, instance configuration, OS, disks, networking and access.

Explore ECS

ACK

Run applications on managed Kubernetes

Plan clusters, node pools, images and storage, with clear ownership of cluster and application operations.

Delivery checks: Kubernetes version, node pools, VPC, image sources and deployment records.

Choose the connection your business needs

Public access, private connectivity and content delivery require different resources and acceptance checks. Choose a use case.

Global Accelerator

Plan public application access and origin paths around the users’ markets and the location of the application.

  1. User access
  2. GA acceleration entry
  3. Application origin
Resources
GA instance, acceleration regions, listeners and endpoint groups.
Before quoting
User markets, origin, protocols, bandwidth and billing mode. Confirm eligibility and activation requirements for cross-border links separately.
Delivery and acceptance
Access configuration, DNS or address arrangements and agreed connectivity and performance tests.
Official product details

Cloud Enterprise Network

Connect private networks. Plan data-centre or branch access with Express Connect, VPN or another suitable connection.

  1. VPC / data centre / branch
  2. CEN / Transit Router
  3. Destination VPC
Resources
CEN, Transit Router, VPC connections and required dedicated links or VPN.
Before quoting
Address ranges, regions, routes, bandwidth, redundancy and existing dependencies.
Delivery and acceptance
Resources and connections, routing policy, access scope and agreed connectivity tests.
Official product details

CDN / ESA

Use CDN for static content delivery; assess ESA when the application needs dynamic acceleration, security or edge processing.

  1. User request
  2. Edge cache and policies
  3. Content or application origin
Resources
Delivery domains, vendor edge services, caching and security configuration.
Before quoting
Domains, origins, user markets, traffic patterns, certificates and DNS permissions.
Delivery and acceptance
Cache and origin policies, access and security logs, usage meters and billing evidence.
Official product details

Databases matched to the application

Start with the current database and application requirements, then establish compatibility, capacity and migration scope.

ProductResource requirementConfirm before ordering
PolarDBResource requirementCloud-native relational databases; select a compatible engine and cluster compute and storage.Confirm before orderingEngine and version, nodes, capacity, zones, backups and migration scope.
RDSResource requirementManaged relational databases; configure instances, backups and maintenance for the selected engine.Confirm before orderingEngine and version, instance sizing, storage, backup retention and maintenance window.

Where CDN and ESA fit

CDN: bring content closer to users

Plan caching, origin access and traffic or bandwidth billing for images, video, downloads and static website assets.

Official CDN overview

ESA: application services at the edge

Combine static and dynamic acceleration, security policies and supported edge functions. ESA is the upgraded product name for DCDN; confirm features against the selected plan.

Official ESA overview

Specify domains, coverage, origin, billing units and logging in the proposal. Agree project acceptance checks rather than relying on advertised node counts or peak figures.

Procurement & handover

A scoped purchase and a traceable delivery.

01RequirementsEstablish the account route

Share the purchasing entity, countries of actual use, applicable international account, target regions and existing resources. Confirm the qualified contracting entity and product scope.

02ValidationConfirm the commercial model

Separate compute, storage, transfer, model consumption and agreed services. Review billing currency, tax, prepaid or metered options and release conditions before purchase.

03HandoverValidate and hand over

Agree a controlled test and resource inventory, then document configuration, permissions, usage allocation and operating responsibilities. Confirm ongoing support and migration or exit work separately.

Full purchasing requirements

Model Studio: model access with a defined data path.

Plan the selected model, account and deployment mode around your application and market.

Qwen and the model catalogue

Identify the exact text, vision, image or video model required. Check version, account eligibility, activation, pricing units and quotas rather than treating the whole catalogue as one entitlement.

Knowledge and application integration

Scope access setup and application or retrieval integration. Use approved data and representative tests, with permissions, response quality and failure handling agreed in advance.

International deployment choices

Confirm the API entry point, storage location and actual inference scope separately. Singapore access or storage does not by itself mean all inference takes place in Singapore.

Infrastructure for applications and cross-region connectivity.

Combine model access with the compute, data and network resources the project needs.

ECS and ACK

Evaluate Elastic Compute Service and Container Service for Kubernetes for applications or licensed self-hosted workloads. Confirm instance configuration, region and supply conditions.

OSS and database services

Plan Object Storage Service, ApsaraDB RDS or PolarDB around documents, application records, backup and retention. Include storage requests and transfer in cost estimates.

VPC and Cloud Enterprise Network

Assess connectivity between the agreed environments. Route design, participating regions, access conditions and network charges need project-specific confirmation.

A scoped purchase and a traceable delivery.

Keep the supplier route and the technical account arrangement visible throughout the project.
