FLOW Digital Infrastructure, a platform backed by Asia-Pacific investment firm PAG, has commenced construction of a new data center in central Tokyo, signaling a major expansion in Japan’s digital infrastructure. The project will consist of two buildings-TK7 and TK8 with a combined IT load of 30MW. TK7, the first phase with a 6MW IT load, is expected to go live in the first quarter of 2027.
The facility is strategically placed near Tokyo’s main data center hubs, Otemachi and Toyosu. It aims to be one of the largest colocation sites in the Greater Tokyo area. It will provide flexible and scalable infrastructure. This will meet the rising needs of AI-driven and high-capacity digital services.
