Upvoted, but I am not sure tokopedia is even in the top 10 in Asia.

Also, the fascination with GMV tends to make it looks like high scalability is required. In another HN discussion, someone mentioned about running the database for an ecommerce that had 1 billions GMV a few years back. Assuming a conservative $5 per order, that translates to about 6 orders per second on average.
