SHANGHAI: The semiconductor division of Chinese tech giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd released its first core processor IP on Thursday, as the e-commerce giant continues its steady push into advanced technologies.

Most RISC-V based processors serve more rudimentary functions, such as powering simple internet-of-things devices. The open-source nature of RISC-V also mitigates risk of Chinese firms losing access to Arm architecture should geopolitical events cause a rift in the global chip industry.Arm was one of several companies to cease serving Huawei Technologies Co Ltd after the United States essentially banned business with the Shenzhen-based phonemaker on national security grounds.

China currently hosts two industry organisations dedicated to researching RISC-V, which complement the RISC-V Foundation based in California.
