Tokyo is rapidly becoming a regional hub for hyperscale deployments, as the xScale joint venture between Equinix and GIC nears first phase completion and development continues from the Digital Realty/Mitsubishi Corporation partnership on their latest site.

These developments have now been joined by AirTrunk, who confirmed their long-rumored entry to the market with the 60 MW first phase of their new 300 MW TOK1 campus to be operational by the end of 2021. This site thus has the potential to be the highest capacity campus locally at full build-out and serves as a major confirmation of both market potential and specifically the rapidly developing data centre cluster at Inzai. This focus on larger deployments is predicated on the continued digital transformation of large local corporations, with major cloud services such as Google and Alibaba making recent inroads and additional supporting applications gaining wider availability. All this leads to continued positive growth throughout the local ecosystem.
