Alibaba Cloud, the company’s cloud computing unit, today announced a new initiative with the Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) and Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL), the capital’s city council. Called ‘Malaysia City Brain,’ the new project is aimed at reducing traffic, monitoring the flow of vehicles, and improving urban planning across the country. Since launching a digital free trade zone with the Malaysian government last November, Alibaba is taking its collaboration one step further. Alibaba Cloud’s City Brain was first implemented at the Xiaoshan district of Hangzhou, the city where Alibaba is headquartered. City Brain has apparently been such a success that it’s already being packaged for other cities across China and, eventually, the world.
