In a recent event, the 2024 re:Invent conference hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS), CEO Matt Garman highlighted the transformative power of generative AI, suggesting it has the potential to revolutionize every sectorIndeed, generative AI is already showing its influence across a multitude of domainsAs we delve deeper into the cloud computing era, cloud management service providers (MSPs) are finding themselves in a pivotal position, assisting users in transitioning to and capitalizing on cloud technologiesNow, with the advent of generative AI, MSPs have yet another opportunity to facilitate and enhance enterprises' adoption of this innovative technology.
Among the plethora of MSPs, Juyun Technology stands out as a prominent exampleServing as a strategic consulting partner for AWS, Juyun Technology has been closely collaborating with AWS since the dawn of the cloud computing age, aiding numerous domestic companies in their cloud journeysAs generative AI makes its mark, Juyun has become one of the first companies in China to receive Amazon's certification for generative AI capabilities, innovating several products and solutions that accelerate the implementation of generative AI for enterprises.
The integration of generative AI within organizations operates on a tiered structure that signifies varying levels of maturity in its applicationAccording to insights gained through the recent boom of OpenAI's ChatGPT earlier this year, generative AI's potential is starting to be recognized on a wide scaleYet, it’s crucial to understand that the generative AI landscape is still in its inception phaseEnterprises are grappling with the fundamental challenges of aligning generative AI technology with their specific operational contextsTherefore, having clear technological expectations and deployment strategies for generative AI is increasingly vital for companies aiming to facilitate this transition.
Juyun Technology, as a subsidiary of Cheetah Mobile, has emerged as a technical incubator within the Cheetah ecosystem

Cheetah Mobile was among the early adopters of generative AI within China, leading the way in exploring practical applications for this cutting-edge technologyFu Sheng, the Chairman and CEO of Cheetah Mobile, has classified the deployment of generative AI into three distinct tiers: the Bronze, Gold, and King tiersCompanies in the Bronze tier typically focus on leveraging public datasets for rudimentary applications, such as generating text or imagesIn contrast, those within the Gold tier are beginning to integrate large models with private datasets to establish sector-specific generative AI solutions, such as knowledge base inquiries and smart customer support systemsFinally, those reaching the King tier are embarking on extensive AI-driven operational transformations that enhance decision-making processes and improve overall efficiency and effectiveness.
Juyun’s founder, Zhu Jun, emphasizes that the adoption of generative AI cannot be instantaneous; rather, it should be viewed as a gradual journeyThis understanding is critical for enterprises, as having unrealistic expectations at the onset could derail their efforts to integrate generative AI effectively.
Interestingly, Zhu’s observations resonate deeply with many organizations currently navigating the complexities of generative AIThe technology itself acts as an engineering problem involving a vast array of new technologies, which demands a sophisticated technical stack and effective integration with business scenarios—challenges that cannot be resolved overnightPresently, many Chinese businesses find themselves hovering between the Bronze and Gold stages of generative AI deployment, with only a few having attained the King tier where more advanced applications flourish.
Parallels can be drawn between the ongoing digital transformation journey and how organizations approach generative AIZhu Jun asserts that it is crucial for top executives to advocate for and drive these technologies’ adoption across their businesses, ensuring alignment from leadership down to operational teams.

To capitalize on this potential, the firm has conducted thorough research into current enterprise needs and has formulated four generative AI solutions aimed at facilitating continuous progression across the aforementioned tiers.
Each of these four solutions addresses specific obstacles companies face when implementing generative AIThe market is saturated with various products and solutions related to generative AI, yet the suitability and practicality of these offerings for actual enterprise applications often remain in questionZhu Jun noted that in the current competitive landscape, about half of their partners are concentrating on RAG (retrieval-augmented generation), while the other half primarily focus on intelligent customer service, leaving little room for alternative applications.
This situation encapsulates the current state of generative AI deployment, where a seeming abundance of applications masks a high degree of homogeneityIn response to these industry challenges, Juyun Technology aims to push the envelope further into application layers, crafting robust generative AI solutions tailored to the unique demands of user business environments.
Building upon their years of exploration within generative AI implementation, Juyun Technology has created four distinctive generative AI solutions, which include RAGPro enterprise knowledge base, AI-Space, Digital Humans, and DecisionAIThese solutions are specifically designed to facilitate the assimilation of generative AI into enterprise processes.
RAGPro enterprise knowledge base utilizes Amazon Bedrock to connect with the Anthropic Claude 3.5 model series for voice-to-text and content generation, applicable in various scenarios ranging from employee training and intelligent customer service to market researchThis solution delivers real-time query responses, product recommendations, interactive learning experiences, and competitive product analysis.
Meanwhile, AI-Space employs Amazon SageMaker for model training and deployment and utilizes Bedrock's model management capabilities to streamline API integrations of Stable Diffusion

This solution empowers businesses to rapidly generate high-quality images and videos tailored for marketing and advertising, ultimately accelerating product launch timelines while reducing operational costs.
The Digital Humans solution extends the capabilities of the previous two offerings by introducing intent recognition and text generation functionsIt enables AI applications such as avatars for news broadcasting, interactive teaching, and AI-assisted sales, thereby providing companies with faster response times, enhanced consumer engagement, and improved satisfaction rates, culminating in greater conversion success in sales.
The final solution, DecisionAI, functions as a data-driven decision support tool, harnessing natural language querying for real-time data analysisThis enables businesses to quickly diagnose issues and make precise predictions, thus rendering their decision-making processes more intelligent and accurate.
According to Zhu Jun, the first three solutions are already mature and easily deployable, allowing for swift integration with enterprise business scenariosIn contrast, the DecisionAI solution requires custom development, resulting in a longer delivery timelineMany non-internet companies typically lack the technical prowess and talent necessary to effectively leverage their data—this is where a data-assisted decision-making tool based on AI can significantly aid these organizations.
Much like during the cloud computing era, the relevance of MSPs is becoming markedly clear as we navigate through generative AI's complexitiesFacing the challenges presented by generative AI, there is a pressing need for industry players to collaborate with MSPs who can act as bridges, helping enterprises to seamlessly adopt and integrate generative AI.
The collaboration between Juyun Technology and AWS exemplifies such a synergistic partnershipAll four of Juyun's generative AI solutions are constructed upon the robust infrastructure and expansive model application services provided by AWS
