Alibaba Cloud goes even more serverless as it tries to become a utility
Alibaba Cloud has kicked off its annual Apsara conference by declaring an ambition to become a"computility" – a service that provides an endless stream of computational resource that users can consume as if it were electricity.
Execs spoke of developing a metric to measure the efficacy of a datacenter so that customers can understand what they're buying – suggesting that processing power and latency could serve as the basis for such measurements. Another example of its ambitions is the Wuying Cloudbook – a thin client that connects to desktops-as-a–service hosted in the Alibaba Cloud. An accompanying Wuying Architecture pipes your preferred apps and approved data into the DaaS rigs you rent. A demo of the Architecture showed Microsoft and Adobe apps accessed from a Cloudbook — Alibaba Cloud promised it's talking to all the software vendors that matter, with a view to ensuring their wares are available as-a-servive.
