Alibaba has shared how the Alibaba Cloud data center in the Philippines can help boost the e-commerce experience in the country. Alibaba Cloud currently has 80 availability zones around the globe. According to Alibaba, the Alibaba Cloud can ensure faster, reliable, and safe operations by moving its data centers closer to the different geographies it services. An example of this is Lazada's use of Alibaba Cloud's Content Distribution Network (CDN) which leads to users enjoying a good performance and uninterrupted streaming at top speed. In addition, Alibaba Cloud's trained technical experts can support the enterprises that use its full suite of products. To complement the investment in the Philippine region, Alibaba will train 50,000 Filipinos and certify 10,000 in a span of three years so that they can fully maximize Alibaba Cloud's cloud and digital intelligence technologies. According to Alibaba, this is a welcome development for the country's eCommerce 2022 Roadmap, which includes a plan to upskill and reskill Philippine talent to support e-commerce growth. Lastly, aside from the parallel priorities with the eCommerce 2022 Road Map, Alibaba Cloud's direction in the Philippines aligns with the government's Cloud First Policy.
