Princeton Digital Group to Invest $150M to Establish a New Data Center in Indonesia

Asia's leading data center provider Princeton Digital Group (PDG) has announced $150 million to develop a new data center facility in Jakarta, Indonesia. The move comes as the company looks to expand its presence in its footprint across Asia.

Since its establishment less than four years ago PDG has built 19 data centers. Recently, the company also announced $1 billion to open a 100 MW flagship data center campus in Japan.

The new data center in Jakarta will be a 22 MW data center named Jakarta Cibitung 2 (JC2). This data center is being built within the same 19,550m2 facility that houses PDG's existing data center JC1. The expanded campus of 35 MW will serve global cloud companies, domestic internet companies, and enterprises.

"Jakarta is an exciting market, Cibitung being the pre-eminent cloud cluster in the region. With the expanded campus, PDG has become a significant player in the Indonesian market. With the explosive economic growth and rapid digitalization by both government and private sectors in Indonesia, the market is core to PDG’s strategy," said Stephanus Tumbelaka, PDG’s Managing Director of Indonesia.

With the ever-increasing adoption of cloud-based services in the public and private sector in Indonesia, the new data center in Jakarta will help deliver unmatched scalability, connectivity, and reliability.
