Malaysia: Emerging Digital Transformation Hub

The establishment of the AWS Region in Malaysia underscores the country’s growing importance in the global technology landscape. By bringing world-class cloud infrastructure closer to developers, startups, and enterprises, as well as government, education, and non-profit organizations, they will have more choice in running their applications and serving their end users from AWS data centers located in Malaysia. G-AsiaPacific is proud to be an AWS Advanced Tier partner to continue to help local enterprises and public sector organizations effectively leverage advanced cloud technologies.

“Malaysia is poised to become a leader in the digital landscape in ASEAN, and the launch of the new AWS region plays a key role in this journey,” said Mark Goh, CEO and Co-Founder of G-AsiaPacific. “By providing businesses such as retail and manufacturing, logistics, automotive, healthcare, access to the world’s most comprehensive and widely adopted cloud, while meeting data residency preferences, we are facilitating faster and more efficient adoption of cloud technologies across industries. This is a significant step towards realizing Malaysia’s vision to become a regional digital economy powerhouse.”

Catalyzing growth and innovation

The new AWS Malaysia region will offer Malaysian businesses, from startups, SMBs to large enterprises, as well as government and public sector organizations, the ability to innovate at scale, reduce latency, and meet data residency preferences. G-AsiaPacific is uniquely positioned to help organizations leverage these new opportunities with its deep expertise in AWS services and cloud consulting capabilities. For example, by optimizing the e-commerce platform of leading Malaysian retailer Padini, G-AsiaPacific enabled a seamless online shopping experience, even during peak sales periods. This is just one example of how businesses can benefit from the local presence of AWS infrastructure, enabling faster data processing and cost-effective scalability.

TF Value Mart, one of the largest retail chains in Malaysia, managed to save 35 percent of its infrastructure costs by migrating to AWS in 2018 as recommended by G-AsiaPacific. They implemented enterprise resource planning (ERP), backup, and disaster recovery solutions to achieve high availability and stability that offer smooth operations and business continuity. To ensure a smooth experience for their employees, TF Value-Mart upgraded most of its virtual machines to Amazon EC2 R5 instances, which are memory-optimized to accelerate performance.

G-AsiaPacific also provides turnkey and cost-effective Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions for businesses of all sizes. They design and implement Internet of Things (IoT) solutions to gain real-time insights and improve operational efficiency.

Stay tuned as G-AsiaPacific and AWS continue to explore the potential of the new AWS Malaysia region, driving innovation and digital transformation across ASEAN.
