Structural works on Telin’s third data centre in Singapore completed

TELIN Singapore, a subsidiary of Indonesia’s PT Telkom, said it has completed the main structural works for its third data centre in Singapore, Telin-3.

With the “topping out” of the 20,000 sq metre five-storey building, the new generation data centre is targeted to be operational by end of the third quarter of this year, Telin Singapore said in a statement.

“Telin-3 is one of the largest investments that PT Telkom has made in Singapore, which serves as an important regional hub for us,” said PT Telkom group chief executive officer Alex J. Sinaga.

“Telin-3 is therefore a pivotal launchpad in line with the group’s strategic efforts to catapult PT Telkom into the global market,” he added.

Telin-3 is located in the west of the island at the Singapore Data Centre Park, a joint initiative by the Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA), the Economic Development Board (EDB) and Jurong Town Corporation (JTC) to strengthen Singapore’s position as an economic and ICT hub.

The facility is a purpose-built data centre, adopting multi-tier design in its system. This feature provides flexibility and modularity to customers, enabling them to select from a variety of tier ratings based on their business requirements, Telin Singapore said in its statement.

Telin-3 is Singapore’s first and only Tier-IV design certified data centre.
