PT Biznet Gio Nusantara Launches NEO Cloud – a Leading Cloud Computing Platform for App Developers – running on Ubuntu OpenStack on Canonical’s BootStack managed cloud. 

NEO Cloud is built on OpenStack technology, the first cloud computing service in Indonesia providing Multiple Availability Zones and Multiple Regions. NEO Cloud will be a more reliable and secure cloud computing service for Indonesian app developers across various level of businesses, from SME, Startups, to Corporations.

Adi Kusma, President Director of Biznet said, ”Biznet keeps innovating to develop the latest technology further as well as expanding its coverage area to reach more cities in Indonesia. NEO Cloud’s computing service, which is equipped with various new features, is supported by Biznet’s over-the- edge network technology infrastructure. We believe that NEO Cloud will become the right solution to support customers’ needs to have a reliable and high-quality cloud computing service.”

“We want to bring the new nuances for cloud computing industry in Indonesia,” said Dondy Bappedyanto, CEO PT Biznet Gio Nusantara. “From time to time, local cloud service providers are still out of favor compared to their global peers due to lack of features. NEO Cloud presents several features such as Multiple Regions and Availability Zones which should have been provided by other local cloud service providers, but yet are still not available,” he added.

Biznet Gio uses Canonical’s managed cloud service BootStack with its Ubuntu OpenStack distribution to deploy and manage its OpenStack servers and software. “The main idea of engaging Canonical and their BootStack program is to have transfer of knowledge and best practices from the experienced OpenStack teams to Biznet Gio’s team,” Dondy explained.

Mark Shuttleworth, CEO of Canonical, Founder of Ubuntu said, “Being able to operate cloud infrastructure efficiently at a low cost is the key to success. Biznet Gio determined Canonical’s BootStack to be the best model for them and their customers. We work closely with Biznet Gio to operate their cloud. It is a successful partnership for us both.”
