Chinese cloud service provider Tencent Cloud kicked off its first internet data centre (IDC) in Jakarta in hope of taking part in the Indonesia's growing cloud computing market. Through this IDC, Tencent Cloud would enable faster data transfers and promote digital transformations to multiple industries. 'Indonesia has a large internet demographic dividend with a fast-growing mobile internet market. We are very pleased to launch our first IDC here to help maximise the cloud computing potential in this country,' noted Tencent Cloud International senior vice president Poshu Yeung. In this vein, Alibaba Cloud plans to open a third data centre in Indonesia in 2021, while Microsoft Azure revealed its plans to establish its first data centre. Additionally, Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently launched its first edge location in Jakarta.
