Case Study: GCash achieves scalable, secure financial services with Alibaba Cloud

GCash powers inclusive finance for 8 in 10 Filipinos with Alibaba Cloud

GCash, the Philippines' largest financial super app, faced challenges with scalability, operational flexibility, and gaining real-time insights from its on-premise legacy platform as user adoption accelerated. To support its mission of financial inclusion, GCash partnered with Alibaba Cloud for a solution that leveraged a mix of products including Elastic Compute Service (ECS), MaxCompute, and a Web Application Firewall (WAF).

Alibaba Cloud implemented a comprehensive suite of services across compute, storage, networking, data, and security to build a scalable and data-driven digital platform. This solution enabled GCash to dynamically scale its operations, ensure 24x7 service availability, and utilize advanced analytics for risk modeling and user insights, ultimately supporting its 80 million users and over 6 million merchants nationwide.
