AIMS to Build Flagship Hyperscale Facility in Cyberjaya
February 6, 2026
In a significant move underscoring the strategic expansion of digital infrastructure in Southeast Asia, AIMS Data Centre, a portfolio company of global investment firm DigitalBridge, has acquired a 10-acre land parcel in Malaysia for the development of a new hyperscale data center campus. The planned facility, to be located in the technology hub of Cyberjaya outside Kuala Lumpur, is designed to support up to 200 megawatts (MW) of critical IT load upon completion. This substantial project represents an investment of approximately RM4 billion (US$1 billion) and is scheduled to be finished in 2027. AIMS has described it as its "next flagship ecosystem and hyperscale facility." The land was acquired from Cyberview Sdn Bhd, a state-owned developer established in 1996 to build foundational infrastructure for the Cyberjaya area. This new development significantly expands AIMS's footprint in the region, where it already operates a 50MW data center in Cyberjaya that began construction in 2020. The investment highlights the intensifying competition and growing capital inflows into Southeast Asia's data center market, driven by rising digital consumption, cloud adoption, and the region's strategic position as a neutral hub for international connectivity. For Malaysia, projects of this scale reinforce Cyberjaya's status as a premier data center cluster and contribute to national economic and digital transformation goals.
