Indonesian telco XLSMART has completed a large-scale public cloud migration project.
The company has moved its operations to the Tencent Cloud platform, a migration effort that took four and a half months.
According to XLSMART, the migration was sped up by using Tencent's AI agents. In total, 60 core applications, 1,200 microservices, 1,100 APIs, and 900 business interfaces were migrated, including 15TB of core assets.
Prior to the migration, XLSMART was scattered across "fragmented multi-cloud platforms" as a result of its formation through a merger in April 2025 between XL Axiata and Smartfren. Today, the telco serves a user base of more than 69 million people.
XLSMART noted that by using AI "across every phase of the project," the company was able to compress work that would traditionally have required months of manual labor into weeks or even days.
Yessie D. Yosetya, director and chief information and technology officer of XLSMART, said, "This project is more than a cloud migration. It establishes a stronger digital foundation that enables XLSMART to innovate faster, improve operational resilience, and continuously enhance customer experience. Together with Tencent Cloud, we have demonstrated how strong collaboration can accelerate large-scale transformation while maintaining service reliability."
Tencent Cloud currently spans 80 markets and regions. In Indonesia, the company operates multiple availability zones in Jakarta, and in late 2024 announced intentions to invest $500 million in a third facility.
Ride-hailing and delivery service provider GoTo Group is a known customer of Tencent Cloud in Indonesia, having undertaken a multi-year cloud migration project.
