Digital Realty has officially landed in Sabah Jaya, Malaysia, announcing its latest progress in Southeast Asia strategy with a three facility park. After Singapore and Jakarta, this is the third regional stronghold of the global data center giant, with a total built IT capacity of 16.5 megawatts and 14 megawatts of new projects planned.

TelcoHub 1, a subsidiary of CSF Advisers that was acquired in January 2026, has now been renamed KUL10 with an initial capacity of 1.5 megawatts and plans to double by the fourth quarter of 2027. The adjacent KUL11 is an AI ready facility with an IT capacity of 15 megawatts, and the two are approximately 500 meters apart. There is also a 1.6-acre adjacent plot of land in the park, which is planned to build a 14 MW AI ready hosted data center, expected to be completed by mid-2028.

Three Stations Interconnection, Anchoring the AI Era

The entire park adopts a multi site deployment design, with three facilities interconnected through dedicated fiber optics and supported by over 40 network service providers and cloud service partners. Using PlatformDigital ® With ServiceFabric ®, Digital Realty provides low latency, high-performance cross market connectivity for AI and data intensive workloads.

At the opening ceremony, Malaysia's Minister of Communications and Digital, Gobin Sing, stated that this move marks an important step for Malaysia in consolidating its position as a sovereign, interconnected, and sustainable digital infrastructure hub. Serene Nah, the head of the Asia Pacific region, pointed out that Malaysia, as a regional interconnection hub, enables customers to seamlessly deploy workloads across markets, and the rapid implementation of multiple sites is a direct reflection of strong customer demand.

Local genes, global network

Billy Lee, chairman of CSF Advisers, said that TelcoHub 1 has been one of the most connected facilities in Malaysia since its inception. After it is integrated into the Internet of more than 300 data centers in Digital Realty, it will further release value, and the local team is still the core of the operation.

The demand for AI computing power in Southeast Asia is accelerating, and Malaysia has become a hot spot for regional digital investment due to its geographical location and policy dividends. The success of Digital Realty not only completes the key puzzle of its Southeast Asian map, but also provides Malaysia with a powerful infrastructure card in the global digital economy competition.Editor/Cheng Liting
