LG CNS has finalized the construction of a 30-megawatt (MW) hyperscale AI data center in Jakarta, marking the first time a Korean company has established an AI data center abroad for a local client. The firm announced on Monday that it had already secured contracts for the facility's entire capacity before the project's completion.
The initiative was initiated last year by KMG, a partnership between Indonesia's Sinar Mas Group and Korea Investment Real Asset Management. This endeavor represents LG CNS's entry into overseas markets, utilizing its expertise in data center design, construction, and operation (DBO). The data center is engineered to accommodate high-performance computing through next-generation graphics processing units (GPUs).
To address the heat produced by AI servers, LG CNS employed a hybrid cooling system that combines air and liquid cooling techniques. The initial phase utilizes air cooling, with the integration of liquid-cooling technology in subsequent phases to cater to high-density AI server environments. Additionally, LG CNS installed a power system capable of supplying more than 300 kilowatts per rack, approximately 60 times the power capacity typically required.
