- Asia Data Centre Alliance to offer remote accessibility service
- Alliance’s mantra is ‘Many Brands, One Experience’
MEMBERS of the regional Asia Data Centre Alliance (ADCA), who met recently in Bangkok, will partner to offer multinationals in the region a world-class remote accessibility service that would enable direct, multicity connectivity through its five members’ data centres located across Asia.
“Multinational corporations (MNCs) from anywhere outside of Asia can leverage on ADCA through its five data centres in Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong, to achieve remote accessibility to their business operations in Asia,” said William Wai, senior vice president of HKCOLO Limited and the new ADCA chairman.
“At the same time, they can be assured of reliable, low latency and high-speed connectivity. This is how ADCA brings the world the value of being the regional hub – with a single data centre collaboration for our global customers,” he added.
The other four ADCA members are 1-Net (Singapore), AIMS Group (Malaysia), CMC Corporation (Vietnam) and and TCC Technology (Thailand). All five companies in the alliance have carrier-neutral data centres.
The members met recently at the ADCA Conference 2013 in Bangkok, which discussed the need for connectivity amongst the region’s main cities and how ADCA can play its part to enable investors seeking business in Asia.
ADCA, whose mantra is ‘Many Brands, One Experience,’ claims a combined data centre space of more than 45,000m2.
“As the world looks towards Asia, it is essential for us to focus our efforts in ensuring we offer services that enable these businesses to grow their business in Asia while remaining connected to the world,” said vice chairman Chiew Kok Hin, of the Malaysia’s AIMS Group.
