Google completes fourth data centre in Singapore

Google's fourth data centre in Singapore officially opened its doors today (3 June). The new facility helps power Google's digital services, such as Google Maps. This brings Google's total investments in infrastructure in Singapore to US$5 billion -- more than five times the amount in 2018. The facility also comes with sustainable features. Senior Minister of State for Communications and Information Janil Puthucheary said, as interest grows in areas like AI and advanced technologies, greener data centres will be needed.
