Alibaba Cloud rolled out a series of products at its recent 12th  annual Apsara Conference, highlighting the their commitment to helping people adapt to the more digitised world and accelerate customers’ digital transformation during and after the coronavirus pandemic.

The company – the digital technologies and intelligence backbone of Chinese tech giant Alibaba Group – introduced its first-ever cloud computer, a palm-sized PC that despite being just about 60g and  as light as an egg,  offers high-performance computing, thanks to robust back-end cloud resources. Connecting the device with a normal computer screen will allow a user to access almost unlimited computing resources anytime and anywhere, while paying for a subscription model or for the actual cloud consumption.

It can, for example, reduce the rendering time of one frame high-resolution animation from 90 minutes using a traditional PC down to only 10 minutes.
