Alibaba Cloud On Top of The Cloud Game in Indonesia

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - Alibaba Cloud has established two data centers to capture the US$400 million cloud market in Indonesia. Indonesia is a big market with its 60 million SMEs who prefer to adopt public cloud. The cloud market in Indonesia, valued at US$172 million in 2016, would grow to US$1.2 billion in 2020.

In Indonesia, Alibaba Cloud is powered by local partners in order to establish a comprehensive ecosystem to deliver relevant and responsive solutions that cater to the specific needs of Indonesian customers. Alibaba Cloud partners with local ISP, Indonet, to deploy the cloud services. The company has blossomed into a business enabler that delivers reliable local infrastructure, data centers, and managed IT services in Indonesia. As they looked toward the future, they have integrated Alibaba Cloud services and products that give Indonet a competitive advantage and allow their other online services such as POS systems to thrive.
