Why there is no cloud version for Qwen 3.6 27/35B?

The Qwen 3.6-27B and 35B models are designed as open-weight models that developers can run locally on their own hardware without requiring cloud services. Alibaba released a separate cloud-only product called Qwen3.6-Max-Preview with closed weights, positioning it as a distinct product line from the open-weight versions. For cloud access to Qwen3.6 models, users are directed to Alibaba Cloud Model Studio, which provides API support for the open-weight variants.
