Juniper Networks has announced that PT IndoInternetTbk (Indonet), an Indonesian digital infrastructure provider, has selected Juniper Apstra to help automate, modernise and facilitate an experience-first expansion of its network infrastructure. Through managed automated network provisioning and monitoring, Apstra has already delivered Indonet an estimated 20 per cent in cost-savings efficiency.
As the world’s largest archipelago, Indonesia has established a reputation as a preferred data centre location in Southeast Asia due to its strategic location across vital shipping lanes, high levels of internet penetration and vibrant digital-first economy. To capitalise on this, the government has rolled out ambitious initiatives to accelerate economic growth, fuelled by the urgency for digital transformation across industry sectors like manufacturing, finance and healthcare.
With digital transformation underway, the demand for reliable and scalable colocation services has spiked – with spending in the capital, Jakarta, alone expected to reach $938 million by 2027 at a projected five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.7 per cent. As Indonesia’s first internet service provider (ISP), Indonet has built a reputation for providing scalable and reliable digital infrastructure solutions and is poised to capture more of that ongoing growth.
Indonet utilised Apstra to validate the design, deployment and operation of the EVPN/VXLAN overlay and IP fabric underlay of its latest data centre, both built on Juniper QFX Series Switches. The use of validated templates and zero-touch provisioning has resulted in reduced deployment times and reliable data centre operations, allowing Indonet to significantly streamline the day-to-day management of its data centre networks and unify them in a virtual environment seamlessly.
As the only solution in the industry supporting a multivendor environment, Apstra can manage data centres built with different vendors, simplifying Indonet’s network operations while accelerating its scalability. Not only has Apstra dramatically reduced tedious manual tasks with repeatable blueprints, but it has also freed up skilled engineers at the company for more strategic work.
Additionally, the latest networking upgrades supported by Juniper’s Professional Services and Advanced Services empower Indonet to better respond to customer needs with greater agility, providing ultra-low latency and highly reliable cloud solutions required to power the country’s enterprises – the backbone of Indonesia’s economic growth.
