Tokyo Colocation Space

Tokyo is the largest economy in Japan, host to most of the country's enterprise headquarters, and is the natural landing point for Asia-Pacific hyperscale capacity from AWS, Azure, GCP, Oracle and Alibaba. The combination of strong domestic demand, deep submarine cable connectivity (PLCN, Topaz, JUPITER), and political stability has made Tokyo Asia's second-largest cloud market after Singapore.

Three main clusters: (1) Central Tokyo / Otemachi — premium carrier-neutral facilities for financial & enterprise, (2) Inzai / Chiba — large hyperscale campuses including AT TOKYO's Chuo Center, AirTrunk and others, (3) Western Tokyo / Fuchu — emerging greenfield zone for new hyperscale builds. GDS / Gaw Capital announced a 40MW campus in Fuchu City scheduled for end-2026.

@Tokyo Chuo Center (CC1 & CC2), operated by AT TOKYO, at 130 MW. AirTrunk's TOK1 campus is on track to scale to 300 MW total IT load through ongoing expansions.

Tokyo has more capacity, fewer regulatory constraints, and better access to the Japanese domestic market. Singapore has tighter regulation (DC-CFA2 program limits new builds) but better connectivity to Southeast Asia and India. For Japan-specific or North Asia-focused workloads, Tokyo wins. For pan-APAC distribution, Singapore is often the gateway.

Increasingly, yes. AirTrunk's TOK1 expansion specifically targets AI density. MC Digital Realty, Colt and several greenfield projects are building for liquid cooling and GPU densities of 50-100 kW per rack. Power constraints in central Tokyo push most large GPU deployments to Inzai or western campuses.
