Indonesia’s Largest E-Commerce Player Leverages
Nutanix AHV Hypervisor to Keep Transactions Seamless for over 2
Million Merchants
Nutanix (NASDAQ: NTNX), a leader in enterprise cloud computing,
today announced at its .NEXT on Tour conference in Singapore that
Tokopedia has been using the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform to
provide the scalability and ease of management required for its
rapid expansion in Indonesia.
Tokopedia is Indonesia’s largest e-commerce company with over 2
million merchants and over 60 million dollars in sales transacted
monthly. Since the beginning of operations in 2009, Tokopedia has
been expanding at a breakneck pace. To capture the opportunities
available in Southeast Asia’s largest economy, Tokopedia needed an
IT partner in Indonesia that could easily cope with their massive
expansion.
Initially, Tokopedia’s legacy monolithic IT systems comprised
various disparate systems that ran their core applications,
including an online web server for their e-commerce business and
various enterprise applications such as MySQL for database
management. These traditional systems were increasingly complex to
handle as Tokopedia’s online marketplace grew. Tokopedia needed to
consolidate its IT infrastructure and find a partner that could
seamlessly manage computing, storage and networking requirements
while scaling in tandem with their rapid expansion. Given that they
are running an e-commerce platform, it was also critical that they
could work with a next-generation provider that could offer a
simple yet cohesive platform with an “always-on” capability to
maintain maximum uptime and efficiency in operations.
Tokopedia turned to Nutanix in July 2016 to manage their
computing, storage and networking problems. The solution included
Citrix’s Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) on Nutanix, various
enterprise applications, including MySQL and Nutanix AHV Hypervisor
to run its core application, the Tokopedia e-commerce platform. In
a seamless plug-and-play migration exercise that took only three
days, Tokopedia saw a host of benefits including freed up space as
25 servers were cut down to just two Nutanix servers, with five
times less power consumption.
For an online marketplace of such massive scale and serving
extensive numbers of customers and sellers, it is essential for
Tokopedia to have a stable IT infrastructure that can be easily
maintained yet highly scalable to meet the ever-changing demands of
the industry. With hyperconverged infrastructure as the foundation,
the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform is able to provide the
support to critical infrastructure to ensure that Tokopedia does
not suffer from unnecessary IT hiccups. This will allow the company
to focus on boosting its business instead of deploying additional
manpower to maintain and troubleshoot disparate multiple
systems.
“Tokopedia’s mission is to democratize commerce through
technology and we want our users and merchants to have an online
retail experience that’s transparent, efficient and secure,” said
Infrastructure Head of Tokopedia, Ardimas Wurseto. “Nutanix has
been an ideal partner as they have a solution that is perfect for a
next-generation company such as ours. Its software-driven
architecture makes IT operations and management seamless and
simple, thus allowing our teams to focus on boosting business
performance rather than on troubleshooting problems caused by
complex IT systems.”
“We are thrilled to be working with Tokopedia in making new
waves in the e-commerce sector,” said Matt Young, SVP and Head of
Asia-Pacific and Japan, Nutanix. “It is a tremendous validation of
the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud OS, which offers reliability in
providing a suitable platform in a mission-critical service.”
