Alibaba Cloud is globally recognised for its technological innovation, a global leader in cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI). Its meteoric rise in Asia Pacific, where it is ranks as the top cloud computing player with a 19.6% market share and top infrastructure as a service (IaaS) provider with 28.2% market share (source: Gartner), is nothing short of spectacular. Globally, it ranks third for both. Alibaba Cloud operates 63 availability zones in 21 regions globally and has the most data centres and content delivery network (CDN) nodes in Asia Pacific than any other cloud service provider.

Alibaba Cloud's technology is battle-tested every year during the Double 11 shopping festival -- the world's largest online sales event that keeps growing every year. Originated from the technologies of Taobao and Tmall, Alibaba Cloud has today been powering the annual Double 11 Shopping Festival for 10 years, successfully handling a peak of over 544,000 orders/second while defending against countless malicious attacks. To put this into perspective, in the time it takes you to finish reading this paragraph, more than 8 millions orders would have been made!

Imagine all that power at your disposal.

As the first global cloud player to have a direct presence in Malaysia, Alibaba Cloud has been empowering the nation's digital transformation. It has helped various businesses scale, grow and be more agile in the global digital economy. Malaysian-based customers include Revenue Monster, TNG Digital, iPay88, Razer and many more.

1. PrestoMall

Early this year, PrestoMall, formerly known as 11Street Malaysia, the nation's largest home-grown online marketplace, adopted Alibaba Cloud's next-generation relational database technology PolarDB as well as data transmission service (DTS) to scale and manage its operations more effectively. By migrating its systems to Alibaba Cloud, PrestoMall now has an infrastructural solution that provides a much higher level of security, reliability, and availability. The more efficient systems of Alibaba Cloud have also helped PrestoMall achieved over a 40% decrease in IT spending.

2. Touch 'n Go mobile eWallet

TNG Digital Sdn Bhd runs its Touch 'n Go mobile eWallet on Alibaba Cloud. TNG Digital needed a robust and scalable infrastructure that can handle millions of transactions a day securely, quickly and responsively. Having achieved that, its future roadmap is to leverage on Alibaba Cloud's data technology to analyse customer behaviour to facilitate a smarter digital wallet solution with the aim of enhancing its customer experience.

3. Sabah Pay

Sabah State Government via its fully-owned statutory body Sabah Credit Corporation (SCC) is tapping on Alibaba Cloud to help it implement Smart Finance -- to drive financial inclusion in the State, making financial services accessible and affordable, filling the void of inaccessibility to rural areas and promoting urbanisation. The launch of Sabah Pay was the first step and a crucial enabler of Smart Finance vision. The main feature of the first phase of Sabah Pay is the centralisation of cash collection for the State Government while digital lifestyle services like eKYC (electronic know your customer), virtual account, virtual financing, smart loan, multiple payment channels, e-parking, e-ticketing and more will be made available in the coming phases.
