Alibaba Cloud Announces Price Hikes for AI Computing and Memory Products

On March 18, Alibaba Cloud issued a price adjustment notice on its official website regarding AI computing and memory products.

Based on the careful evaluation, the company has decided to adjust prices for services including AI computing and CPFS (AI Computing Version) starting April 18, 2026.

Among the adjustments, computing card products such as the T-Head Zhenwu 810E will see price increases ranging from 5% to 34%, while the file memory product CPFS (AI Computing Version) will increase by 30%.
