Segments that transform the industry

• Based on type, the market is segmented into private cloud, hybrid cloud, and public cloud. Among these, the public cloud market held the dominant share of the cloud computing market in 2024. In Southeast Asia, the market is experiencing growth due to the offer of cost-effective scalability and flexibility by public cloud services to enterprises. The public cloud platforms are being embraced by companies to support remote operations, handle data loads, and drive digital transformation. The ease of deployment and its pay-as-you-go business model are enabling companies, particularly SMEs, to innovate at a faster rate without the need to install extensive infrastructure. For instance, on October 2, 2024, Oracle announced plans to invest more than USD 6.5 billion to meet the rapidly growing demand for its artificial intelligence (AI) and cloud services in Malaysia by opening a public cloud region in the country. The upcoming cloud region will enable Oracle customers and partners in Malaysia to leverage AI infrastructure and services and migrate mission-critical workloads to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

Region that transforms the industry

• Indonesia is expected to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period (2025-2033). The rapid digitalization, the booming startup ecosystem, and the good support of the government contribute to making Indonesia the fastest-growing cloud market in Southeast Asia. Adding to this, the rising number of internet users and the growing e-commerce industry in the country are compelling companies to move to the cloud to be scalable and improve data efficiency. The adoption is increasing due to recent investments in local data centers and the affiliation of cloud providers and telcos. With the further intensity of digitalization in industries, Indonesia is becoming a key driver of expansion in the regional cloud computing space. On May 27, 2025, Microsoft announced the opening of its first cloud region in Indonesia, called Indonesia Central. This is an AI-ready hyperscale cloud infrastructure that offers in-country data residency, high levels of security, and lower latency. This marks a significant progress towards Microsoft’s investment commitment in Indonesia. With a planned investment of 1.7 billion dollars in the period 2024-2028, the Indonesia Central cloud region will enable businesses from across the world to ideate, develop, and scale digital innovation in Indonesia, positioning the country as a global economic powerhouse.
