The award was conferred for TM One’s dedication to deliver top-notch data centre infrastructure and best-in-class managed services to its customers.
Edwin Ng Kok En, General Manager, Data Centre and Cloud Business, TM One accepted the awards on behalf of TM during the awards presentation ceremony.
Commenting on the win, Azizi A Hadi, Chief Executive Officer, TM One said, “We would like to thank Telecom Asia for recognising TM One's achievements for the Best Data Centre Services Provider category. It is our great honor to receive this prestigious award from Telecom Asia, which marks an important milestone of excellence for TM One’s Tier III Iskandar Puteri Core Data Centre (IPDC). This award is a testament of our continued efforts towards realising the nation’s aspiration to become a world-class Digital and Internet of Things (IoT) hub in the region. TM One will continue to innovate and deliver integrated business solutions with unparalleled service quality, security and highly trusted data centre services, true to TM’s promise of “Life Made Easier”.”
“In the current challenging era that requires advance solutions in support of the digital economy, data collection, storage, analysis and transformation into real customer insights are essential for organisations in order to drive decision making at an unprecedented volume and speed. However, legacy data centre facilities may have limited capabilities to cope with the increasing demand to properly support today's energy-demanding, high-performance big data computing. Hence, many businesses are shifting to commercial and third-party data centre providers such as TM One that has the capability to securely host and manage thousands of servers and petabytes of data in a very cost effective manner,” he further added.
TM One launched its state-of-the-art IPDC located in Nusajaya Technology Park, Iskandar Puteri, Johor in November 2017. The IPDC, which has been accredited with Tier-III Constructed Facilities by the Uptime Institute, was designed to fulfil hosting, cloud and IoT requirements of business and enterprise customers as well as public sector in realising their digital transformation. In tandem with the IPDC, the Klang Valley Data Centre (KVDC) which is currently under construction, is set to become TM One’s ‘Twin Core’ and hybrid cloud strategy to enable businesses to realise the full potential of their digital opportunities. TM currently has 11 data centres located across Malaysia, as well as in Hong Kong and the United States.
Marking its 21st anniversary, as the region’s longest running and most prestigious industry award, the Telecom Asia Awards aims to recognise and reward Asia’s premiere service providers and executives in the telecom industry.
