Digital Realty Expands Innovation Lab Network to Singapore and Japan to Accelerate AI and Hybrid Cloud Imple--
SINGAPORE, Radarseluma.disway.id -- Digital Realty (NYSE: DLR), the world’s largest cloud- and carrier-neutral data center platform, today announced the expansion of its Digital Realty Innovation Lab (DRIL) into SINGAPORE and Japan. This marks the first expansion of the company’s global DRIL network into Asia Pacific, following the successful launch of the inaugural DRIL facility in Northern Virginia in September 2025, which received over 120 visits from our enterprise customers.
The new DRIL locations will offer our ecosystem of partners and customers fully supported, real-world testing environments where they can bring their own workloads or use pre-configured infrastructure to validate AI and hybrid cloud deployments before scaling live. This is especially important as AI adoption increases and infrastructure readiness has emerged as a critical barrier to moving from experimentation to production at scale.
The launch represents Digital Realty’s commitment to support Singapore and Japan’s continued leadership in AI innovation. In Singapore, AI adoption is driving continued growth in the nation’s digital economy, which now accounts for 18.6% of total GDP. At the same time, Japan plans to invest 10 trillion yen or more in the semiconductor and AI sectors by 2030. Both are expected to be available for use by customers and partners this year.
Enabling next-generation AI infrastructure
The Singapore DRIL is designed to serve as a digital innovation hub, bringing together local customers, partners, and research institutions with global technology providers and industry participants seeking to develop, test and deploy AI and hybrid cloud solutions in Singapore.
In Japan, the DRIL will be located at the company’s NRT12 data center in the Greater Tokyo area. Designed to support advanced AI and high-performance computing use cases, it will feature 20 racks with direct liquid cooling (DLC) capabilities, enabling support for high-power-density workloads.
“Sustaining rapidly expanding digital economies requires innovation ecosystems built on infrastructure that is not only AI-ready, but also efficient, resilient, and trusted,” said Serene Nah, Managing Director and Head of Asia Pacific, Digital Realty.
