Telehouse has unveiled plans to open Bangkok’s first purpose-built data centre focused on connectivity as it continues to expand its presence in the Southeast Asian market.
The 9,000 sqm/96,875 sqft facility with power capacity of 9.5MVA, known as Telehouse Bangkok, is set to open during the second quarter of 2023.
Telehouse Bangkok, will be the company’s third location in Southeast Asia, joining Singapore and Vietnam, and will be among more than 45 Telehouse data centres worldwide.
The new data centre, situated in the Rama 9 business district, close to the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), will offer four routes for fibre access.
Kenichi Miyashita, Managing Director, Telehouse Thailand, said: “Telehouse Bangkok will be the first data centre of its kind in Bangkok and will come at a time when we expect the data centre market in the country to see robust growth owing to the boom in the digital economy, supported by the Thai government’s exciting Industry 4.0 transformation plan.
“Telehouse Bangkok aims to provide the best environment for all the Internet-related customers, such as cloud service providers, content providers, telecoms and ISPs, to connect with one another with minimal latency. Telehouse Bangkok is a sign of our commitment to help drive the digitisation of Thailand and lift the data centre standard in the region.”
