Equinix plans expansion of its DC segment
PETALING JAYA: Equinix Inc is eyeing the expansion of its data centre (DC) facility in Malaysia following the completion of its KL1 International Business Exchange to meet the accelerating demand for digital infrastructure across the country.
Equinix Malaysia, Asia-Pacific managing director Cheam Tat Inn said the company is in the early planning stages for its next DC, dubbed KL2, after having officially completed the second phase of the KL1 DC in Cyberjaya.
'We have seen encouraging momentum over the past year, with both our Kuala Lumpur and Johor facilities gaining traction among local and international businesses.
'Completing KL1's second phase within the first year of our operation in Malaysia signals our deep commitment to helping the nation become a strategic location in the region's digital economy,' he said during a media briefing at KL1 DC yesterday.
He said Equinix's expansion in Malaysia represents a long-term investment in the nation's digital growth. — Bernama
