This paper aims to explore the domestic development trend of artificial intelligence cloud service platform products through the research on the representative products of cloud service platforms in the artificial intelligence industry—the product positioning, core functions, and development strategies of Alibaba Cloud and Tencent Cloud. Provide decision assistance for the development of application-layer artificial intelligence products based on the actual situation and the use of cloud service platforms with more advantages. 1. Industry background 1. Industry overview The development of cloud computing has gone through the pre-accumulation stage of the mature technologies such as virtualization and parallelism, to the formation stage of SaaS, IaaS, and PaaS. Currently, it is in the mature
stage of forming mainstream platforms and standards through in-depth competition. Cloud computing, as the underlying support for emerging directions such as mobile Internet, Internet of Things, big data, intelligent hardware and Industry 4.0, has developed rapidly in recent years. Cloud services represented by SaaS appeared in the late 1990s. The AWS service phone number list launched by Amazon in 2005 made the industry realize the birth of a new IT service model. After that, Internet and IT companies such as Google, IBM, and Microsoft began to provide cloud computing services at different levels from different perspectives, and cloud services entered a stage of rapid development. Cloud services are gradually breaking through the scope of the Internet market. Governments, public management departments,
and enterprises in various industries have also begun to accept the concept of cloud services, and have begun to convert the traditional self-built IT method to the use of public cloud services. maturity of the industry. 2. Market Status development stage: An industry can be roughly divided into four stages of development: exploration stage, rapid development stage, mature stage, and recession stage. According to the 2015 Gartner Hype Cycle, most cloud computing services, such as AI cloud services, are still in a period of rapid development; some services, such as SaaS and IaaS, are in a mature period. In order to promote the rapid development of cloud computing, relevant support policies have been introduced one after another. According to the "Three-Year Action Plan for the Development of Cloud Computing (2017-2019)" issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: the plan targets that by 2019, the scale of my country's cloud computing industry will reach 430 billion yuan, and a large
