Data Center Indonesia - A notes

Interactive Indonesian Data Center Landscape

Explore data center providers, tier certifications, and market insights based on the Indonesian Data Center Landscape report.

Understanding Data Center Tier Classifications

The Uptime Institute's Tier Classification System is a global standard for rating data center performance, reliability, and fault tolerance. This section provides an overview of the different Tier levels and certification types. Click on each item to learn more.

Provides dedicated IT space with cooling and UPS. Single, non-redundant distribution paths. Maintenance requires shutdown. Expected uptime: 99.671%.

Adds redundant capacity components (power, cooling). Still single distribution path. Maintenance of path requires shutdown. Expected uptime: 99.741%.

Multiple independent distribution paths. Components maintainable without IT disruption. Susceptible to unplanned failure if it impacts the active path. Expected uptime: 99.982%.

Highest reliability. Any single unplanned equipment failure or path interruption will not impact IT operations. Concurrently maintainable. Expected uptime: 99.995%.

Verifies design plans meet Tier requirements. Early-stage validation.

Assesses the actual built facility via on-site inspections and tests. Higher assurance than TCDD.

Most comprehensive. Evaluates infrastructure, management, and operations practices (staffing, training, maintenance). Bronze, Silver, Gold levels.

Data Center Distribution by Tier (Illustrative)

This chart provides a visual representation of the approximate distribution of certified data centers in Indonesia based on available data. Interact with the chart for more details.

Note: Chart data is based on providers listed with specific Uptime Institute Tier or TIA-942 Rated certifications in the report. "Designed to" or "Complies with" are not included in this specific count.

Tier IV Certified Data Centers

Tier IV facilities offer the highest level of reliability and fault tolerance. Below is a list of providers in Indonesia with Uptime Institute Tier IV certifications. Use the filter to narrow down by location. Click on a provider row for more details.

Filter by Location: All Locations

Provider Name	Facility Name	Location	Uptime Tier IV Cert(s)	Other Certs

Note: "Claimed" indicates the tier level is stated by the provider/third-party but not directly verifiable from Uptime award details in the source. "Designed to" indicates design intent, not achieved certification unless specified.

Tier III Certified Data Centers

Tier III facilities are concurrently maintainable, offering a strong balance of availability and cost-effectiveness. Below are providers with Uptime Institute Tier III or equivalent TIA-942 Rated 3 certifications. Use the filter to narrow down by location. Click on a provider row for more details.

Filter by Location: All Locations

Provider Name	Facility Name	Location	Uptime Tier III / TIA-942 Cert(s)	Other Certs

Note: TIA-942 Rated 3 is often considered comparable to Uptime Tier III. "Self-declaration" means the provider states this tier level.

Other Tier Certifications & Provider Approaches

This section includes providers with TIA-942 Rated 2 certifications, facilities with Uptime Institute awards where the specific tier was unconfirmed in the source, and major hyperscale cloud providers who often emphasize regional architecture and SLAs over traditional tiering.

Key Market Observations & Strategic Considerations

The Indonesian data center market is dynamic and growing. This section highlights key observations regarding geographical concentration, the significance of certifications, market dynamics, and strategic considerations for users, based on the source report.

Geographical Concentration & Emerging Hubs

High-tier data center capacity is largely concentrated in Jakarta and surrounding industrial areas (Bekasi, Cikarang, Karawang) due to proximity to economic centers and network exchanges. Secondary markets like Batam (near Singapore, SEZ status) and Surabaya are gaining traction for regional connectivity, disaster recovery, and potentially lower operational costs.

The Significance of Tier Certifications

Uptime Institute Certifications (TCDD, TCCF, TCOS - especially Gold) are key differentiators, signaling investment and operational maturity. TIA-942 is an alternative. Hyperscalers often focus on regional Availability Zones and SLAs rather than traditional tiering for individual halls. Users should verify claims and understand the differences (e.g., "Tier IV Design" vs. "Tier IV Gold TCOS").

Market Dynamics & Investment

The market features strong local players (Telkom, DCI, Biznet) and major international operators (Equinix, NTT, STT GDC). Significant investment is flowing in, driven by e-commerce, cloud adoption, and digitization. Wholesale colocation for cloud providers is a major growth driver.

Strategic Considerations for Users

• Risk Tolerance: Align Tier level choice with application criticality.
• Verify Claims: Scrutinize "designed to" vs. official certifications.
• Connectivity: Evaluate carrier ecosystem, peering, and cloud on-ramps.
• Scalability: Consider provider's capacity for future growth.
• Sustainability: PUE ratings and renewable energy use are increasingly important.

Conclusion from Report

Indonesia offers a growing array of data center choices, with a strong presence of Tier III facilities and select Tier IV providers for highest uptime needs. Understanding certification nuances and aligning choices with specific business requirements are crucial. The market is well-positioned to support digital transformation.
