Avalanche to power Alibaba Cloud’s infrastructure services in Asia




Alibaba Cloud, or Aliyun, a subset of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, has announced an integration with Avalanche blockchain to power the company’s Node-as-a-Service initiatives, reports Cointelegraph.

Avalanche’s partnership with Alibaba Cloud will see the development of tools that enable users to launch validator nodes on Avalanche’s public blockchain platform in Asia. The integration will allow Avalanche developers to use Alibaba Cloud’s plug-and-play infrastructure as a service to launch new validators.
