Building more cloud capacity also means finding power, cooling and space to house it. Those needs are central to Google’s announced infrastructure plans in Malaysia.

Google announced plans to invest US$15 billion in Malaysia during 2027 and 2028. The company identified planned data center campuses in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan.

Google says its Selangor infrastructure will support an upcoming Google Cloud region. Its announcement also outlines plans for clean energy capacity, water resilience and workforce training.
