This expansion will enable organizations to use AWS technologies, including AI and machine learning, while AWS plans to invest billions of dollars in Taiwan over the next 15 years. This move aims to support digital transformation with high security and resilience, enhancing innovation and customer service.
Amazon Web Services (AWS), a subsidiary of Amazon.com, has announced plans to establish its first infrastructure region in Taiwan by early 2025 [1]. This expansion marks a significant milestone in AWS's commitment to the Asia-Pacific (APAC) market, where it aims to invest billions of dollars over the next 15 years.
Taiwan, known for its strong digital infrastructure, will become the latest addition to AWS's growing list of global infrastructure regions [1]. The new AWS Asia-Pacific (Taipei) region will offer organizations in various sectors, including healthcare, finance, education, and non-profits, the opportunity to run their applications and serve end-users from local data centers.
AWS's expansion into Taiwan is driven by its commitment to support digital transformation and help organizations unlock the full potential of cloud technologies. The new region will offer a wide range of AWS services, including compute, storage, database, analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence [1].
This announcement comes amidst growing demand for cloud services in the APAC region, particularly in Taiwan. AWS plans to invest over $5.3 billion in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, where it announced plans to launch an infrastructure region in 2026 [2]. The company's long-term commitment to the region underscores its confidence in the market's growth potential.
The new AWS region in Taiwan is expected to boost innovation and enhance customer service by offering organizations access to advanced cloud technologies. It will also contribute to Taiwan's digital transformation efforts by providing high security and resilience, which are crucial in today's increasingly digital world.
