JAKARTA: Oracle Corp will partner with DayOne Data Centers Singapore Pte to establish its first cloud services centre in Indonesia, people familiar with the matter say, boosting its partnership with a key regional operator that counts TikTok owner ByteDance Ltd as its largest customer.
The American tech giant will lease DayOne’s data centres located at Nongsa Digital Park on the Indonesian island of Batam, according to the people, who asked not to be identified discussing information that’s private.
Oracle will be the sole tenant at DayOne plots that could support facilities with at least 120MW of power, they said.
A 120MW data centre typically requires a capital investment of at least US$1.2bil, depending on factors like location, design tier and land costs, and whether the facility is built for hyperscale artificial intelligence workloads.
Oracle’s expansion confirms an earlier Bloomberg News story that it was in discussions to establish a cloud services centre in Indonesia.
Representatives for Texas-based Oracle didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
Singapore-headquartered DayOne earlier this year was spun out of Chinese data centre operator GDS Holdings Ltd, which retains a stake.
ByteDance is far and away DayOne’s largest customer, according to research firm SemiAnalysis, with Oracle coming in second.
DayOne also didn’t respond to a request for comment. — Bloomberg
