Indonesia’s National Data Center (PDN) and Cloud Infrastructure in Komdigi - Learn about Indonesia’s National Data Center (PDN), its locations, cloud usage by Komdigi, and how it supports public services and government digital transformation.
Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Digital (Komdigi), formerly known as Kominfo, plays a central role in managing nation’s digital infrastructure. One of its most important initiatives is National Data Center (Pusat Data Nasional - PDN), which serves as backbone for storing and managing government data. Alongside PDN, Komdigi also leverages cloud services from providers like Alibaba Cloud to support specific operations, such as those used by General Election Commission (KPU).
What is National Data Center (PDN)?
National Data Center (PDN) is a government led project aimed at building interconnected data centers across Indonesia. These facilities function as centralized storage hubs for data from various ministries, government agencies, and regional authorities.
PDN is designed to:
- Enhance data capacity for national operations.
- Consolidate digital infrastructure to support Indonesia’s digital transformation.
- Increase efficiency and security in managing sensitive public sector data.
PDN facilities are distributed across multiple strategic locations:
- Balikpapan
- Batam
- Bekasi
- Manggarai Barat
In addition to PDN, Komdigi utilizes cloud services from providers such as Alibaba Cloud. For example, KPU (General Election Commission) has relied on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure to support its digital operations.
PDN holds critical national data, including but not limited to:
- Population data: NIK (National Identification Numbers), addresses, and demographic information.
- Healthcare data: Patient records and national health program data.
- Government program data: Digital services and e-government initiatives.
