Tencent Cloud opens first Indonesian data center
Jakarta bit barn offers subset of services - CLI, GPU, some storage services, advanced security services and serverless aren t on offer Share
Chinese web giant Tencent has opened its first cloud data center in Indonesia.
The new facility appears to be a standalone affair, rather than one of a pair or triad that would offer local redundancy. Tencent says it offers “more disaster recovery options in the whole APAC region” as the company also operates its cloud in Singapore, Bangkok, Mumbai, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Seoul and four Chinese cities.
The company says it chose Indonesia so that local customers could put data and compute closer to customers. The new facility therefore boasts backbone access to “all major Indonesian and global internet services providers” and “Tencent Cloud’s own high-quality border gateway protocol to cover the entire country.”
