2025: Move the entire IT infrastructure to the cloud Cloud.ru

Taxi aggregator "Ikskar" has transferred 100% of the IT infrastructure to облакоCloud.ru. The migration made it possible to scale quickly, reduce system downtime to zero, and, as a result, prepare systems for fivefold growth in the number of customers over the past six months. The company Cloud.ru announced this on December 4, 2025.

Unlike traditional aggregators, Ikskar gives passengers the opportunity to independently choose the price of a trip, and drivers - to set tariffs, commissions and working conditions. The platform combines mobile applications for passengers and drivers, as well as administrative panels for managing the service and taxi companies.

It was important for XCar to choose a cloud provider that could guarantee mature PaaS services and would allow it to quickly scale and increase the share of the aggregator in the taxi market. After analyzing the market, the company chose Cloud.ru. In addition to the maturity of the cloud, flexible charging became the determining factors, that is, payment only for actual resource consumption and a wide range of services for setting up the optimal configuration.

XCar has connected seven Cloud.ru services - virtual machines, block and object data storage, backup, virtual private network, as well as a managed DBMS and a service with dedicated IP addresses for public access. Also, XCar plans to develop and implement a recommendation system for drivers and passengers using AI Factory's civil environment tools.

We have transferred 100% of the IT infrastructure to the Cloud.ru cloud - all services work stably and continuously, even during peak hours. Since migration, the number of aggregator customers has grown fivefold. We set ourselves an ambitious goal of reaching a million trips a day and taking up to 20% of the taxi market. And in the process of moving towards this goal, they intend to continue to scale on the cloud platform, Cloud.ru said Maxim Birthday, founder and head of the taxi aggregator XCar.

The business of taxi aggregators is built on the trust of drivers and passengers. If the application is unavailable for at least a couple of minutes, the company will lose not only orders, but also suffer reputationally. We are glad to see how XCar is growing on our platform and competing with market leaders, giving drivers and passengers more freedom and flexibility, "said Alexey Ri, leading sales specialist Cloud.ru.
