Build a highly reliable, low-latency real-time analytics platform for computer vision motion tracking and global video streaming/API services.
Provide stable infrastructure that supports real-time motion tracking and analysis at low latency for a global audience.

Combat IQ migrated development and production infrastructure to Alibaba Cloud.
The company primarily used Elastic Compute Service (ECS) to deploy virtual machines that run its computer vision models, video streaming infrastructure, and API services.
They accessed the VMs via SSH, installed deep learning models, optimized system performance for low-latency inference, and set up video streaming and APIs.
The company plans to combine Elastic Block Storage (EBS) and Object Storage Service (OSS) to meet growing cloud data storage needs.
