Global data centre leader Digital Realty has announced its entry into the Malaysian market with an agreement to acquire CSF Advisers, the owner of the TelcoHub 1 facility in Cyberjaya.

The move marks a significant expansion of the company’s Southeast Asia platform, aiming to meet the region’s escalating digital infrastructure demands. The operational 1.5-megawatt TelcoHub 1 is a major interconnect hub, hosting over 40 network providers and key platforms like AWS and Google.

Digital Realty also secured adjacent land for future development, potentially adding up to 14 megawatts of IT load. The acquisitions are slated to finalise in the first half of 2026.

The new campus will integrate into Digital Realty’s global PlatformDIGITAL®, with plans to deploy its ServiceFabric® interconnection solution to provide customers with seamless regional connectivity.

Serene Nah, Managing Director and Head of Asia Pacific at Digital Realty, stated: “Malaysia plays an increasingly important role in the region’s digital ecosystem as hyperscalers, enterprises and platforms scale up. Our entry into Malaysia will bring our global platform, operational expertise, and long-term investment approach into the local market.”

Upon completion, CSF’s existing team, led by Chairman and CEO Billy Lee, will join Digital Realty. Lee highlighted the market’s growth trajectory, noting, “Malaysia is currently in a sustained scale-up phase for digital infrastructure… We are excited to join Digital Realty and hope this acquisition will enhance our connectivity solutions for customers.”
