NEXTDC is finally stepping into Japan with TK1 Tokyo, a next generation data center parked right next to Tokyo Tower. This is the company’s first move into one of the toughest and most important cloud and AI markets in the world. The goal is obvious. Get closer to the surge in AI workloads, automation projects and high performance compute that Japan is now scaling at speed.
TK1 Tokyo is built for low latency and heavy duty AI jobs. Think high density racks, fault tolerant infrastructure, tight security and fast pathways into global cloud platforms. Hyperscalers, defence agencies and enterprises get to run sensitive or compute hungry workloads right inside the capital instead of routing traffic across borders and adding delay.

This launch also fits NEXTDC’s broader push across Asia after its Kuala Lumpur development. The firm is confident that the continent’s early wave of AI adoption, cloud migration and public digital infrastructure investment will continue through the decade. The first phase of the project is already being constructed and will be operational by the end of 2030. Once live, the facility aims to give businesses and governments a cleaner way to scale, protect and modernize their digital setups in a market where speed and reliability actually matter.
