Landbank will allow tripling of capacity to 200+ MWs to meet AI and cloud demand
HERNDON, VA., December 2, 2024 – EdgeConneX, the pioneer in global Hyperlocal to Hyperscale Data Center Solutions, announces the expansion of its Jakarta, Indonesia, hyperscale data center campus to 200+ MW capacity. Tripling its capacity, this strategic growth is fueled by a 45,000 sqm land acquisition in Bekasi, Cikarang. The acquisition is designed to meet the surging demand for high-quality data center services and support the burgeoning Indonesian digital economy led by cloud and AI technologies.
Jakarta, Indonesia’s capital city, has a metropolitan area population of over 32 million, and is a critical nexus in the digital landscape. And as the fourth largest country in terms of population, Indonesia presents significant opportunities for growth in cloud and AI sectors.
“Jakarta has always been a critical hub for EdgeConneX, and our investment underscores our commitment to Indonesia’s digital transformation. Expanding our data center campus supports our customers and strengthens the local economy and community.” – Kelvin Fong, Managing Director APAC of EdgeConneX
“The Jakarta market continues to be a dynamic and expanding market, fueled by hyperscale cloud growth and now AI-oriented infrastructure. EdgeConneX acquisition of more land gives it the inventory necessary to meet current capacity requirements, while providing the kind of runway it needs to serve the requirements of rapidly scaling workloads like AI.” – Philbert Shih, Founder and Managing Director, Structure Research
