ESR, CloudHQ forge JV to build data centre campus in Japan

The data centre will deliver 130 MW of data centre capacity over three phases.

ESR and CloudHQ have entered into a joint venture to build, fit out, and operate ESR’s US$2b Cosmosquare Data Centre campus in Osaka, Japan.

The data centre campus will deliver 130 MW of data centre capacity over three phases, OS1, OS2, and OS3.

OS1 is ESR’s first data centre facility in Japan and will be ready for service in June. Once fully fitted out, OS1 will provide customers with 25 MW of data centre capacity.

“ESR’s deep local real estate knowledge combined with CloudHQ’s engineering expertise will make this a powerful partnership going forward. This joint venture will enable us to better serve our clients in Japan and across the Asia-Pacific region, ensuring they have access to the highest quality data centre infrastructure and services,” Hossein Fateh, founder and CEO of CloudHQ said.

ESR plans to seize the growth opportunity in Japan amidst surging demand for cloud services from the manufacturing, automotive, financial services, healthcare, and government sectors.

ESR’s other data centre developments in Japan include previously announced campuses in both Keihana and Minoh City, Osaka, as well as Ariake, Tokyo.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
