As part of this strategic partnership, APJII is enhancing
coverage of the Indonesia Internet Exchange (IIX) in Greater
Jakarta by launching a new IIX node at BDx Indonesia’s CGK 3A
campus in Southern Jakarta. This initiative aims to establish the
campus as the digital hub for internet traffic exchange, thereby
boosting the resilience and efficiency of the region's digital
infrastructure. The presence of IIX at CGK 3A campus will provide a
platform for developing a carrier-neutral interconnection ecosystem
in Indonesia, addressing the high bandwidth and low latency demands
of modern applications.
BDx Indonesia’s CGK3A campus is specifically tailored for AI
inferencing and is poised to accelerate AI capabilities in the
country. Establishing IIX at the AI inferencing data center will
enable optimized, direct, and high-speed connectivity between the
data center and various networks, reducing latency and improving
real-time data processing. It will enhance the responsiveness of AI
models, and offer peering opportunities with other AI ecosystem
partners, fostering faster data sharing and better integration.
Indonesia's internet penetration has rapidly risen to 79.5%,
according to the 2024 APJII survey, fueled by a young and
tech-savvy population. E-commerce remains the dominant force in the
digital economy, making up a huge portion of digital services
revenue. The country's data center market is witnessing significant
expansion, and this growth is propelled by ongoing digital
transformation efforts, including government initiatives like
"Making Indonesia 4.0," and the rising adoption of cloud computing,
IoT, and AI technologies. To support this burgeoning digital
economy, a reliable digital infrastructure is a must.
"In the wake of Indonesia’s digital revolution, our alliance
with APJII is not just timely but imperative. While BDx offers the
most interconnected digital infrastructure mesh across the country
with a portfolio of 59 colocation facilities and edge sites, APJII
is a cornerstone of Indonesia’s Internet ecosystem. This
collaboration is more than a partnership; it’s a synergy aimed at
bridging the digital divide, underscoring our common commitment to
strengthening Indonesia’s digital backbone," said Sujit Panda,
COO of BDx Data Centers.
"The partnership with BDx Data Centers reflects our focus on
optimizing internet traffic, improving routing efficiency, and
advancing Indonesia's digital infrastructure's overall quality and
security. By joining hands, we intend to pave the way for a
sustainable and resilient digital future," stated Muhammad Arif,
Chairman of APJII.
APJII has over 1,000 internet service providers and more than
3,000 users, committed to enhancing the digital landscape in
Indonesia. Their efforts aim to deliver high-quality internet
services to the community, aligned with Indonesia's 2045 Digital
Vision.
