Digital Realty executed an agreement to acquire CSF Advisers, owner of the TelcoHub 1 data center in Cyberjaya, Malaysia, providing the company an entry into the Malaysian market to support the region's growing digital infrastructure requirements.

The company described the acquisition as an extension of its Southeast Asia platform and said the move complemented its existing presence in Singapore and Jakarta, with the intention of offering additional capacity and connectivity across the region.

TelcoHub 1 operated as a 1.5 Megawatt (MW) data center and was described in the release as one of Malaysia's largest dark fiber interconnect hubs, with more than 6,000 fiber cores and both regional and long-haul fiber landing at the site; the facility hosted more than 40 network service providers and offered access to platforms such as AWS, Google, MY IX and DECIX ASEAN, and adjacent land could support up to 14 megawatts of IT load.

Digital Realty executed the agreement to acquire CSF Advisers and agreed to acquire the adjacent land that can support up to 14 megawatts of IT load.

“Malaysia plays an increasingly important role in the region’s digital ecosystem as hyperscalers, enterprises and platforms scale up, and infrastructure requirements evolve toward greater resilience, interconnection, and readiness for more complex workloads,” said Serene Nah, Managing Director and Head of Asia Pacific, Digital Realty.

The companies expected the acquisitions to close in the first half of 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, and upon completion Billy Lee and the local leadership and more than 40 skilled professionals will join Digital Realty; Digital Realty said it planned to integrate the campus into PlatformDIGITAL, introduce ServiceFabric to the campus, expand the local team, continue to evaluate opportunities, and work with the Malaysian government and industry stakeholders on sustainability.
