## Qiniu Cloud AI

- `compute/qiniu-cloud-ai` | fails-identity | evidence documented | binding retention-clamped | category container and VM sandbox
- needs card unknown, phone no, ID yes, institution no | verified 2026-10-22 (live) | stale on 2026-11-22
- url https://developer.qiniu.com/las/13281/sandbox-overview
- free tier: Per-second billing with no free compute allowance: CNY 0.00003 per vCPU per second, which the page restates as CNY 0.108 per vCPU per hour, range 1 to 8 cores; CNY 0.000015 per GiB per second, or CNY 0.054 per GiB per hour, 512 MiB to 8192 MiB in 512 MiB steps. Each sandbox gets 20 GiB of local disk free of charge. Persistent storage carries 10 GiB per account per month free, then CNY 0.000145 per GiB per hour. Network traffic is not billed separately today. A 2 vCPU / 2 GiB sandbox is CNY 2.61 for an 8-hour day by the page's own worked example. | unit: hours | metered on: wall-clock | read on: 2026-10-22 | source: [1] | note: none
- per-object cap: not applicable | source: [1]
- retention: A sandbox has a 5 minute default lifetime and a 15 second default exec timeout, both extendable through the API; the account itself needs real-name verification ( ) before any free allowance is granted. | source: [1]
- egress: not stated | metered: no | source: [1]
- identity: national-id | detail: real-name verification of the account before any free allowance is granted: the free-quota page states the allowance is automatic once the service is activated and real-name verification completed. The record's notes add that topping up needs a Chinese payment method. Which document the real-name check accepts, whether a card is required for the free allowance itself, and any authorisation amount are not stated
- interface: rest
- limits:
  - retention-clamped (binding): A sandbox has a 5 minute default lifetime and a 15 second default exec timeout, both extendable through the API; the account itself needs real-name verification ( ) before any free allowance is granted. [1]
- limits note: A sandbox has a 5 minute default lifetime and a 15 second default exec timeout, both extendable through the API; the account itself needs real-name verification ( ) before any free allowance is granted.
- binding note: the same as limits note
- interface detail: inferred from the tooling the provider documents; not probed
- tooling: not stated
- composes with: Because it speaks the E2B protocol, the same client code that runs on E2B points at us-south-1 by changing E2B_API_URL, which makes this a drop-in cheaper backend for a Chinese or US-east workload rather than a rewrite.
- reliability: no reliability event recorded
- notes: This is the cheapest per-vCPU sandbox rate found, at CNY 0.108 per vCPU-hour, and it is the only provider here that publishes a US region alongside a mainland one. It is recorded as fails-identity because the free allowance is gated on real-name verification and topping up needs a Chinese payment method; the sandbox compute itself has no free allowance at all, so even a verified account starts at CNY 0.432 per hour for 2 vCPU and 4 GiB. Isolation is described as system-level per-instance virtualization; the page does not name the technology. Qiniu also sells (LAS) as an ordinary VPS from CNY 14.2 per month domestic and offers a 2-core / 2 GB instance at CNY 66 per year for new customers in Singapore, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Changshan.

- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-22: CNY 0.00003 per vCPU per second (CNY 0.108 per vCPU-hour) and CNY 0.000015 per GiB per second (CNY 0.054 per GiB-hour), 1 to 8 cores, 512 MiB to 8192 MiB; 20 GiB local disk free per sandbox; persistent storage 10 GiB per account per month free then CNY 0.000145 per GiB-hour; network traffic not billed separately
  - [2] 2026-10-22: '开通对应服务并完成实名认证即可自动享受免费额度': the free allowance requires real-name verification, and the allowance table lists storage, CDN, multimedia and a 750-hour container allowance but no sandbox compute allowance
  - [3] 2026-10-22: the sandbox is fully compatible with the E2B API and SDK, with regions cn-yangzhou-1 and us-south-1, and states a 5 minute default sandbox lifetime
  - [4] 2026-10-22: the create call takes a timeout in seconds defaulting to 15, and a timeout endpoint extends a live sandbox
