Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX)

About

The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) — Bursa Efek Indonesia (BEI) — is the merger of the Jakarta Stock Exchange (JSX), which handled equities, and the Surabaya Stock Exchange (SSX), which handled bonds. IDX is Indonesia's capital market, facilitating the trading of equities, fixed income, and derivatives. A capital market matters to a country's economy because it does two things: it helps companies raise funds from public investors, and it gives people a way to invest in instruments like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. It also reflects the state of the national economy.

Objective

One of the capital market's key roles is distributing information to participants and the wider public. Previously, JSX and SSX distributed that information separately. With the two merged into IDX, a new, integrated information portal (www.idx.co.id) was needed to serve IDX's role as the center of information distribution and disclosure.

Solution

To meet the portal's demanding goals, Konsep Dot Net — as a Microsoft Certified Partner — built an interactive, dynamic web application on Microsoft .NET. As the foundation we used DotNetNuke Professional Edition, the most widely adopted Microsoft .NET web content-management platform. For a more interactive experience, we integrated Telerik, a set of .NET UI controls and components. Microsoft SQL Server, proven for performance, availability, and security, powers the database. www.idx.co.id runs on more than five servers for the best performance, and uses Google Site Search (including file contents such as PDF, Word, and text files).
