  "account": "Japanese technology firm NTT Data has expanded its data center capacity in Jakarta, responding to the growing demand for cloud, artificial intelligence (AI), and digital services in Indonesia. The company inaugurated a new facility called Jakarta 2 Annex Data Center (JKT2A) with a capacity of 12 megawatts (MW). This facility incorporates advanced cooling technologies, power infrastructure, and carrier-neutral connectivity to accommodate hyperscale, enterprise, and high-density computing workloads.\n\nJKT2A is situated within NTT Global Data Centers’ Jakarta campus, complementing the existing JKT2 facility, which currently hosts over 240 network service providers, JKT-IX, a significant cloud service provider, and crucial submarine cable connections. Yasuhiro Kajiki, the managing director of Japan and APAC for NTT Global Data Centers, emphasized that this expansion marks a crucial milestone for the company's operations in Indonesia, as it aims to create a more interconnected and resilient data center platform for clients, offering greater flexibility as their infrastructure needs evolve.\n\nAccording to Doug Adams, CEO of NTT Global Data Centers, Indonesia is one of the most dynamic digital economies in Southeast Asia, driving a substantial demand for scalable, highly connected digital infrastructure.",
