Malaysia is on the cusp of a data centre revolution. The global demand for data storage—projected to grow from 10.1 zettabytes (ZB) in 2023 to 21ZB by 2027 (IDC, 2023, as cited in JLL, 2024)—presents both a challenge and a golden opportunity. Major cloud providers are investing billions in Malaysia, signalling confidence in its potential as a regional hub for digital infrastructure.
Yet to sustain this growth, Malaysia must address pressing issues around energy, talent, and regulatory coherence—all while ensuring its broader digital ecosystem is future-proof.
