Established in 2017, PT GTech Digital Asia builds end-to-end consumer digital engagement platforms. Their rich portfolio of products and services covers O2O and omni-channel fulfilment solutions, multi-vendor loyalty programs, digital payments, big data analytics and digital marketing, and B2C eCommerce logistic solutions. The company is currently developing Indonesia’s largest retail network, PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk.

The PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk retail network will include a large-scale coalition loyalty programme, serving 110+ world class brands including Mango, Cotton-On, Marks & Spencer, Lacoste, Swarovski, Samsonite, Swatch, Galleries Lafayette, SOGO and many more. PT GTech Digital Asia requires a highly elastic infrastructure, which is easy to manage and can automatically scale to meet fluctuating user demands.

Alibaba Cloud’s cloud-based solutions free PT GTech Digital Asia from many time-consuming infrastructure and database management tasks, allowing the organization to focus on its core business. The automatic and elastic scaling capabilities of the Alibaba Cloud network allow PT GTech Digital Asia to proactively provision the required number of servers to provide a high-performance service to its users. As a result, GTech has reduced its network and infrastructure costs. The pace of innovation at Alibaba Cloud is another key benefit, allowing GTech to reduce its time to market, while taking advantage of the latest technologies.

Alibaba Cloud’s high-performance Container Service for Kubernetes (ACK) seamlessly scales GTech’s infrastructure. This fully managed service is easy to use, allowing GTech to quickly create new clusters and achieve the high-performance levels required for the PT Mitra Adiperkasa Tbk retail network. The network’s content is encrypted, managed and served through Alibaba Cloud’s Object Storage Service (OSS), which stores, processes and accesses the retail network’s data. Alibaba Cloud’s Web Application Firewall (WAF)provides additional network security, including real-time monitoring of GTech’s servers to provide the organization with the high availability required to meet user demands. The ApsaraDB for RDS and ApsaraDB for MongoDB database services provide further elastic scalability for GTech’s relational and NoSQL databases, with automatic monitoring, backup and disaster recovery capabilities included as standard.

PT GTech Digital Asia will continue to work with Alibaba Cloud, investigating how its extensive range of cloud-based products and services can continue to optimize its infrastructure and provide this organization with the innovation it needs to succeed.
