True Internet Data Center (True IDC), a leading data centre and cloud service provider under Charoen Pokphand Group (CP), officially launched Thailand’s first AI Hyperscale Data Center, last week, according to Bangkok Post, the country’s leading English daily.
Equipped with over 20 megawatts of power capacity, the data center is purpose-built for AI processing and large-scale workloads, including GPU (Graphic Processing Unit) workloads. The facility features a high-efficiency smart fan wall unit cooling system and is designed to support liquid cooling technology. Apart from high redundancy backup systems, the data centre is optimised for energy efficiency with Thailand’s best-in-class Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) and houses a Data Center Innovation Lab.
Suphachai Chearavanont, Chief Executive Officer of Charoen Pokphand Group, in a speech said that the launch of this AI Hyperscale Data Center marks a significant milestone in Thailand’s entry into the giga data centre era. “To enable everyone—individuals, companies, and industries—to access AI and cloud technology, a fundamental requirement is a robust data centre. This development brings immense benefits to Thailand and its industries, and contributes to the broader region by establishing Thailand as a regional hub while fostering domestic digital research and development,” he added.
Narit Therdsteerasukdi, Secretary General of the Board of Investment (BOI), said, “I would like to extend my congratulations to True IDC on the launch of its new data centre. This is a historic moment for a Thai company to develop hyperscale digital infrastructure.”
Thanasorn Jaidee, President of True IDC, shared, “This new AI Hyperscale Data Center sets a new benchmark for Thailand’s data centre industry in terms of technology, engineering, and sustainability. This foundation enhances Thailand’s capability to independently and securely develop advanced technologies.”
