Malaysia Data Center Market - Investment Analysis & Growth Opportunity 2024-2029

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

• The Malaysia data center market has about 34 operational colocation data centers. Most colocation data centers are being developed according to Tier III standards. For instance, NTT DATA’s Cyberjaya is designed and constructed per Tier III standards and certified by the Uptime Institute.
• Malaysia is among the top expensive markets globally for developing data centers. In 2023, its data center construction cost stood at about $8.5-$10 million per MW, making it the costliest market in the APAC region after Singapore and Jakarta.
• Some leading colocation operators in the Malaysian data center industry include Bridge Data Centres, NTT DATA, Keppel Data Centres, Vantage Data Centers, VADS, and GDS Services. Some new entrants in the market include AirTrunk, Equinix, EdgeConneX, Princeton Digital Group, NEXTDC, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres, and others.
• Several factors are driving industrial development in Kuala Lumpur. For instance, the administration has established the Kuala Lumpur Smart City Master Plan 2020-2025 to support innovations and the sustainable development of the city’s industrial infrastructure, with targets such as smart digital infrastructure and smart economy.
• In January 2024, the governments of Malaysia and Singapore signed an MoU to jointly develop a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in the Malaysian state of Johor. This will help facilitate better cross-border movement of people and goods, increase the adoption of renewable energy, and make business regulations more effective.
• The upcoming Sedenak Tech Park in Johor offers various advantages, such as using renewable energy for its power needs, the low risk of natural disasters, large land availability, highly skilled talent, and government support. This will further bolster data center developments in the Malaysia data center market.
