Indonesia Cloud & Datacenter Convention 2025

This panel will explore the crucial developments and trends that will define Indonesia data center evolution, from government support and sustainability initiatives to the rise of hyperscale facilities and edge computing.

• Market analysis of the data center sector growth in Indonesia
• New developments and upcoming data center projects in the country
• Discussing government initiatives to drive digital transformation such as “Indonesia 4.0” and “100 Smart Cities”
• Discussing the importance of data sovereignty and tax incentives to drive DC growth in Indonesia

As Indonesia’s digital economy surges, the demand for faster, lower-latency services is pushing the growth of edge data center infrastructure. This keynote will explore how edge deployments are bridging connectivity gaps, enhancing user experiences, and supporting the rapid expansion of smart cities, IoT, and digital ecosystems across the archipelago.

As artificial intelligence continues to scale, the focus is shifting from raw capability to sustainable performance. “Embracing the AI Era: Maximizing Token Output per Watt” explores the intersection of efficiency and innovation, emphasizing how organizations and researchers can optimize AI systems to deliver maximum language model output with minimal energy consumption. This approach not only reduces operational costs and environmental impact but also sets a new standard for performance in the era of large-scale AI deployment.

As AI reshapes digital infrastructure, data center operators are increasingly strategizing how to make their facilities more AI-driven — from architecture and operations to service delivery. This panel explores the motivations, approaches, and requirements behind AI-empowered data centers. Key discussion points include:

• Why data center operators are pivoting toward AI-centric strategies and what transformation looks like in real terms
• How enterprise and BFSI end-users assess AI-readiness in data center services — from resilience to responsiveness
• The evolving role of AI in automating operations, optimizing energy and cooling, and enabling predictive analytics
• Redesigning data center to fit AI workloads, real-time responsiveness, and resiliency

This session will highlight how Brightray’s modular data center solutions are accelerating deployment timelines without compromising quality or scalability. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of prefab models in supporting AI workloads, meeting localized demand, and enabling flexibility across diverse deployment environments.

Along with the surge of AI data center infrastructure demands, data center industry is facing unprecedented challenges, not only with agile DC construction but data center operation. This session will highlight how to prepare future-proofing data center operation technology to cope with current and upcoming data center operation challenges; Liquid cooling environment, mega-scale DC operation, shortage of skilled operators, AI technology adoption, and more.

This keynote session will delve into the latest advancements in cooling technologies for data centers, focusing on innovative solutions to manage the rising energy demand. Ray Tse will discuss the cutting-edge method to achieve a better PUE and WUE that current typical chilled water system is struggling, introducing a cooling system that not only reduce the operating cost of a data center but also maximizing the profitability of a data center.

This panel will focus on strategies for reducing carbon footprints, including renewable energy adoption, energy-efficient designs, and green building practices. Panelists will share insights on how data centers can align with global sustainability goals while maintaining operational excellence and profitability.

• What are the main challenges in achieving carbon-neutrality goals in Indonesia?
• Transitioning from fossil fuel-based power to renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower
• Investing in energy storage and smart grid technologies

This keynote session will focus on the critical importance of business continuity in data centers, particularly in mitigating the risks of outages and their potential impact on operations. Uptime Institute will discuss strategies for disaster recovery plans, redundant systems, and real-time monitoring. Explore the best practices for maintaining resilience and minimizing downtime in the face of unforeseen disruptions.

Industry leaders will address the challenges organizations face when integrating AI and cloud computing to drive digital transformation. Experts will discuss solutions for overcoming technical, operational, and security barriers while harnessing the power of both technologies.

• Discussing the evolving role of the CIOs and CTOs in today’s highly digital world
• How AI is driving innovation and growth in data centers? What are some challenges when adopting AI?
• What are the key ingredients and must haves to ensure a smooth and seamless digital transformation journey?

Data centers are prime targets for cyberattacks because they house vast amounts of personal, corporate, and financial data, making them high-value targets for cybercriminals. Effective cybersecurity practices help protect against data breaches, ransomware, and other forms of cyberattacks that could compromise the integrity and availability of services.

• Cloud security management and mitigation strategies
• How are AI-driven threat detection and response shaping cloud security strategies?
• DDoS ( Distributed Denial of Service) attacks
• Insider threats and the importance of employee awareness and trainings

Indonesia’s booming data center sector must urgently integrate comprehensive ESG strategies to stay resilient and competitive. This case study explores how operators can address Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions while embedding strong social and governance frameworks. It also highlights Indonesia’s key ESG challenges — from renewable energy gaps to fragmented supply chains — and why stronger collaboration between developers, vendors, investors, and regulators is critical for sustainable growth.

Panelists will share real-world success stories and lessons learned, offering practical insights into effective cloud migration strategies.

• Taking into key considerations when migrating to the cloud: cost, infrastructure, talent and security
• Sharing real-life success stories and benefits from cloud migration efforts
• What are key learning points and improvements needed in moving to the cloud?
