Alog Technology Resolves 40 Million Daily Orders During Chinese Biggest Shopping Festival With Infortrend

Infortrend Technology, Inc. announced that ALOG Technology Co., Ltd, a Chinese e-logistic solution provider for Alibaba’s Tmall Supermarket, had adopted EonStor DS 3016R subsystems to build their warehousing information systems and host their most critical database, improving operation efficiency and service quality since 2015.

Established in 2004, ALOG Technology operates one of the largest automated warehouse logistics centers in China and focuses on providing logistics solutions for e-commerce warehousing. High-quality services accumulated over the years have enabled ALOG to become the core warehouse management service provider of Tmall Supermarkets under China’s Alibaba Group. Their service network covers 388 cities worldwide, and the management warehouse area exceeds 1.8 million m² with a daily peak order processing capacity of up to 40 million pieces.

On “618 (6/18)”, “Double 11 (11/11)”, and “Double 12 (12/12)” of each year, major e-commerce companies in China will hold tons of promotional activities, and these huge transaction volumes challenge ALOG’s scale of operations and warehouse management systems.

After a few rounds of vendor selections, ALOG chose Infortrend and adopted multiple EonStor DS 3016R subsystems to host their most critical databases in both national data centers and regional warehouses spread across 10 provinces, including Tianjin, Shanghai, Guangzhou, etc., responding to China’s biggest shopping carnivals for three consecutive years since 2015.

“By adopting Infortrend’s storage products to build an intelligent logistics warehouse platform, we provide high quality core warehouse management services for Tmall“, says Xiong-Hui Ye, operation manager of information department, ALOG Technology.

Thomas Kao, senior director of product planning, Infortrend, said: “We are delighted that ALOG Technology is satisfied with EonStor DS 3016R’s performance, delivering HA and short response time even during peak database access times, and successfully responding to the challenges of all these major shopping carnivals for three consecutive years. We will strive to deliver storage solutions to meet the expectations of our dearest customers.“
