The rapid growth of digital technology in Indonesia has fostered the expansion of e-business systems, which in turn has generated vast volumes of data. However, many e-business platforms still face challenges in utilizing this data effectively to improve operational efficiency and decision-making. This research was conducted to explore the utilization of big data in enhancing the efficiency of e-business systems in Indonesia. The main objective of the study is to analyze how the integration of big data analytics contributes to optimizing business processes, customer engagement, and overall system performance in the Indonesian digital commerce ecosystem. A mixed-method approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys of 120 e-business practitioners with qualitative interviews involving 15 data analysts and IT managers from various sectors such as retail, fintech, and logistics. Data were analyzed using statistical tools and thematic coding to derive patterns and insights. The findings indicate that e-businesses implementing big data strategies reported a significant improvement in system responsiveness, personalized customer services, and data-driven decision-making. Moreover, big data utilization has been linked to enhanced supply chain management and real-time monitoring capabilities. Despite these benefits, challenges such as data privacy concerns, lack of skilled personnel, and high infrastructure costs remain significant barriers. In conclusion, the study confirms that the effective use of big data plays a crucial role in improving the efficiency and competitiveness of e-business systems in Indonesia. Future initiatives should focus on strengthening data governance and investing in human capital to maximize big data’s potential.
