BDx Indonesia, a joint venture between Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison (Indosat or IOH), Lintasarta, and BDx Data Centers (BDx), has launched Indonesia’s first sovereign AI data centre park. The renewable energy-powered CGK4 AI campus marks a step toward making the country a regional AI leader.
The CGK4 campus is part of BDx Indonesia’s interconnected ecosystem, linking core and edge sites to enable seamless AI deployments. Its phase 1 deployment uses NVIDIA’s AI and accelerated computing platform to support AI-driven innovations.
Transformative step
“Our ongoing partnership with Indosat is a transformative step in creating Indonesia’s sovereign AI cloud while empowering the nation to be Southeast Asia’s AI hub,” said Mayank Srivastava, CEO of BDx Data Centers. “
The launch underscores the increasing need for sovereign data centres as data volumes grow. Ensuring that data remains within sovereign borders strengthens data privacy and security posture.
Ronnie Vasishta, senior vice president of Telecom at NVIDIA, said: “By investing in a state-of-the-art AI data centre equipped with NVIDIA’s AI and accelerated computing platform, IOH, Lintasarta, and BDx Data Centers have laid the foundation required for a wave of innovation that will benefit Indonesia and the entire region.”
“The launch of the AI DC Park marks a significant milestone, unlocking new opportunities and reinforcing Indonesia’s position as a leader in the AI revolution,” said Vikram Sinha, president, director and chief executive officer of Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison.
Digitally empowered nation
The infrastructure serves as a landmark achievement in Indonesia’s digital transformation journey. It is tied to the country’s concept of Gotong Royong, which highlights community and mutual help.
“The infrastructure is ready to support digital innovations and help realise the shared vision of making Indonesia a digitally empowered nation by 2045,” Srivastava said.
