Thailand is emerging as one of Asia’s most important digital hubs. Fuelled by large-scale investments in data centres, cloud regions, and network infrastructure, the country is becoming a central link between Southeast Asia and global markets. Recognising this, Console Connect, PCCW Global’s Network-as-a-Service platform, has expanded its footprint by enabling 13 new data centre locations across Thailand, bringing the total to 16 nationwide.

South Africa has cemented itself as Africa’s biggest cloud hub, with Johannesburg emerging as a key centre for cloud connectivity in the country. It has seen significant investment from the three major hyperscalers - AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud - all of which have a local presence in Johannesburg. This makes the city a strategic launchpad for cloud services, AI innovation, and digital transformation across the African region.

In this ecosystem update, we share details of 11 new data centre locations now available on the Console Connect platform, along with new global on-ramps across the ''big three'' cloud providers. Across the U.S., we’ve expanded our footprint in New Jersey, Florida, Utah, and Ohio, giving you access to more local data centres with ultra low-latency connectivity.
