Nutanix, a leader in hybrid multi-cloud computing, has announced that the Yogyakarta City Communication, Informatics and Encryption Office (Diskominfosan) has utilized the Nutanix Cloud Platform to integrate all 229 government applications onto the Jogja Smart Service (JSS) platform. This integration has resulted in improved delivery and transparency of public services for over 217,000 JSS users.
Recognizing the importance of e-government, the Yogyakarta City Government has made efforts to transform its services and enhance interaction with businesses, citizens and the community at large. Diskominfosan, the driving force behind this digital transformation, selected Nutanix as its strategic partner to streamline operations and enhance the performance of the JSS application.
By adopting a DevOps model using Microservices and Kubernetes on the Nutanix Kubernetes Engine, Diskominfosan achieved increased efficiency, flexibility and collaboration. The elimination of silos between teams led to a significant reduction in application response time, with responses now taking less than five seconds. Additionally, the implementation of Nutanix resulted in an 80% reduction in IT man-hours and a 50% decrease in overall IT operating costs. With most systems now automated, the team can allocate their time and resources more effectively. Nutanix also ensures that JSS information and services are available 24/7, even during peak usage periods, without concerns about infrastructure reliability.
The head of the Yogyakarta City Communication, Informatics and Encryption Office, Ignatius Trihastono, stated that Nutanix's scalability and efficiency are crucial for their overall plan and blue map. They hope that the JSS application and the Yogyakarta City Smart City program can serve as an example for the implementation of e-government in accordance with regulations. The speed and flexibility of Nutanix's technology will also greatly contribute to the formation of the city's digital ecosystem, which can promote the realization of a digital economy.
Before partnering with Nutanix, Diskominfosan faced numerous challenges due to fragmented IT systems and the complexity of managing large data sets across physical servers. Nutanix provided an optimal solution by offering a hyper-converged infrastructure that simplified operations, increased agility, and facilitated faster application development through DevOps practices.
The managing director of SEATHK at Nutanix, Han Chon, expressed pride in playing a crucial role in empowering the Yogyakarta City Government's digital transformation journey. The partnership with Diskominfosan demonstrates the power of technology in driving impactful changes in the public sector and creating a smart society ecosystem.
Nutanix remains committed to supporting the Yogyakarta City Government's vision and looks forward to further innovation and success together. The organization is dedicated to innovation and plans to continue collaborating with Nutanix to advance the Smart City program in Yogyakarta. Future plans include implementing additional Nutanix solutions, such as Nutanix Files Storage, to enhance centralized data security and resilience.
