Malaysia-based data center company AIMS Data Center Sdn Bhd (AIMS) has finished construction of its Cyberjaya Block 3 facility ahead of schedule.
The firm said in a statement last Thursday that the new block adds substantial capacity, bringing its total potential capacity to more than 100 MW in the Klang Valley and positions it as the operator with the largest data center capacity in Cyberjaya today.
Originally slated for completion next year, Block 3 was delivered ahead of schedule due to accelerated planning, strong customer backing, and robust market demand.
“This achievement is a clear indication of market confidence that reflects our deliberate strategy to build in alignment with confirmed demand, rather than speculatively,” said its Chief Executive Officer Chiew Kok Hin.
He said that AIMS is seeing a big increase in demand from international customers. This is because the region is becoming more digital, and there’s growing use of cloud services and artificial intelligence (AI). Malaysia is also becoming a popular choice for data centers.
He added that large tech companies, businesses, and digital service providers are choosing Malaysia because it offers lower costs, plenty of land and power, strong government support, and easy access to nearby markets.
“Cyberjaya Block 3’s early readiness is a testament to our operational agility, the trust our customers place in us, and the unwavering support of government stakeholders,” he added.
AIMS, supported by regional telecom company Time dotCom and global investor DigitalBridge, is expanding beyond Malaysia while still focusing on strengthening the country’s digital infrastructure. As it grows, AIMS is also creating hundreds of skilled jobs and helping train local talent in important technical areas.
So far, AIMS has directly hired over 200 people to work at its various facilities, offering them valuable technical skills and career opportunities. In addition, more than 100 people are working indirectly on its operations and construction projects.
Since DigitalBridge became a partner in 2022 by investing in AIMS and joining Time dotCom, the company has raised over MYR 2 billion (about $470 million) in funding. This money is being used to support the growth of Malaysia’s digital infrastructure sector.
“At AIMS, we derive immense fulfilment from knowing our presence has helped make Malaysia a regional base for global players, creating opportunities beyond data centers, and strengthening the wider digital economy,
“This cements Malaysia’s position as Southeast Asia’s leading data centre hub while continuously creating skilled jobs and upskilling local talent,” said Chiew.
He also said AIMS’ world-class infrastructure and expertise have attracted global cloud providers and content networks to Malaysia, spurring growth in fintech, e-commerce, and AI.
Chiew also emphasized that public–private partnerships have been vital to AIMS’ success, enabling faster execution and sustainable growth.
In line with its commitment to responsible growth, AIMS has also ensured that its data centres advance its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) agenda.
“Beyond compliance, the facilities incorporate energy-efficient systems and are supported by renewable energy certificates (RECs) to offset carbon footprint, exemplifying what we at AIMS term as ‘sustainable sustainability, ’” said Chiew.
According to him, this approach contributes to long-term value creation, aligning economic growth with environmental stewardship and creating wealth for Malaysia in a responsible, future-ready manner.
