Australian data center operator NextDC has brought KL1, its data center near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, online.
Located at Seksyen 51a in the city of Petaling Jaya, west of Kuala Lumpur, this is the company’s first international data center.
Although it is set to offer 65MW of capacity at completion, it is unclear how much capacity has been made available.
A promotional video on NextDC’s website states that the data center will be built in five phases, with the first phase offering 15MW of capacity.
According to NextDC’s website, the facility will offer 18,250 sqm (196,441 sq ft) in technical space.
NextDC said that the facility was worth AUD$1 billion ($716m) in investment.
Last June, the company announced that it had brought its debt financing up to AUD$5.1 billion ($3.7bn) in order to fund its ongoing data center expansion.
NextDC currently has sites in planning or under evaluation in Tokyo, Japan; Bangkok, Thailand; and Singapore, as well as Kuala Lumpur and Johor in Malaysia.
