News on December 22, 2021, in order to promote standardization work in the field of artificial intelligence model as a service (MaaS) and promote industrial development, at the just concluded plenary meeting of the Artificial Intelligence Subcommittee of the National Information Technology Standardization Technical Committee, a formal discussion And started the preparation of the standard document "Artificial Intelligence Model as a Service (MaaS) Reference Architecture". This standard will continue to be promoted and become the basis standard for domestic model-as-a-service. Among them, Alibaba Cloud will serve as the technical leader for the preparation of this standard
In recent years, large-scale model technology and products have developed rapidly, and the market demand for Model as a Service (MaaS) has grown sharply. It is understood that this standard document provides a reference architecture for Model as a Service (MaaS), stipulates the main activities of MaaS providers, model users, model and data providers, and infrastructure providers, and standardizes the main functional layers of MaaS , functional components and interfaces, etc. This standard document applies to the construction, application, implementation and maintenance of model-as-a-service and its application systems
Alibaba Cloud was the first company to propose the concept of Model as a Service (MaaS) and became the technical leader of this standard. In October 2022, Alibaba Cloud proposed the MaaS concept for the first time and released the AI model community "Magic Build"; a year later, MaaS became an important technical direction for cloud manufacturers to upgrade towards the AI era. Microsoft, Tencent, Baidu and other manufacturers have followed suit. "Magic" has become the largest model community in China, with the number of developers exceeding 2.8 million and model downloads exceeding 100 million. The "Artificial Intelligence Model as a Service (MaaS) Reference Architecture" standard document integrates Alibaba Cloud's extensive experience in MaaS service practice
At the same meeting, Alibaba Cloud, as the joint technology leader, launched a working group discussion on the national standard proposal for the "Technical Requirements for Artificial Intelligence Open Source Model Service Platform" and entered the preparation stage. The proposal provides the overall architecture of the open source model service platform and is suitable for the planning, construction, operation and maintenance of related platforms
It is worth mentioning that since this year, Alibaba Cloud has made rich industrial practices in the field of artificial intelligence. Alibaba Cloud serves as the co-leader of the large model special group of the National Artificial Intelligence Standardization Group, and has actively participated in the formulation of multiple large model-related national standards. Alibaba Cloud is also the only technology giant to open source and develop large-scale models. Tongyi Qianwen ranks at the top of many authoritative open source model lists at home and abroad
The above is the detailed content of The standardization of the artificial intelligence model as a service (MaaS) reference architecture under the leadership of Alibaba Cloud has been launched.. For more information, please follow other related articles on the PHP Chinese website!
