Google unveils $3B investment to tap AI demand in Malaysia and Thailand


The funds will go toward new data centers in both Asian markets, serving also as cloud regions, and supporting developments in artificial intelligence.

The investment is expected to fuel in excess of $3.2 billion in "positive economic impact" and add 26,500 jobs for the Asian market by 2030, said Google in a statement Tuesday. The collaboration will support companies in regulated industries, such as healthcare, financial services, and energy, that must comply with data sovereignty, security, and privacy requirements. DNeX will operate as an authorized managed services provider of Google Distributed Cloud, offering an air-gapped infrastructure to these organizations, the US vendor said.
