SINGAPORE, Jan 15 (Reuters) - BDx Data Centers, the
largest data centre operator in Indonesia, is aiming to open a
dozen data centres in the Southeast Asian nation with a target
of 250 megawatts of capacity within the next two years, it said
in a statement on Wednesday.
That is in addition to the fifth data centre the company
launched in Indonesia, Southeast Asia's largest economy, on
Wednesday. Financial details were not disclosed in the
statement.
BDx is an Asia Pacific data centre operator backed by
U.S.-headquartered infrastructure investor I Square Capital,
which manages over $40 billion in assets globally, according to
its websites.
BDx's expansion plans in Indonesia come at a time when
investor appetite for data centres is growing in Asia, driven by
demand for artificial intelligence and cloud computing-based
services.
BDx also said in the statement that it had partnered with
the Association of Indonesia Internet Service Providers to
enhance the country's digital infrastructure.
