セールスフォースがシンガポールにデータセンターを建設！！
以前四半期決算の席上でCEOのマーク・ベニオフが「2008年中にアジアにデータセンターを建設する予定」とコメントしていましたが、場所がシンガポールに決定したようです。ヨーロッパでも日本でも中国でもなくシンガポールに決めたということが正直驚き。

In addition to the data center infrastructure, salesforce.com also announced plans to establish a Network Operations Center (NOC) in Singapore to implement 24x7, follow-the-sun monitoring of the company's data centers in North America and Singapore. To support this, it is investing in additional facilities and headcount at its Asia Pacific headquarters.
"The decision to build our first data center outside of the U.S. is clear evidence that companies globally are abandoning the failed client-server software model and are looking for a new model that allows them to focus on innovation as opposed to infrastructure," said Marc Benioff, chairman and CEO, salesforce.com.
Salesforce.com's Asia Pacific customer base doubled over the last 12 months. Strategic customers include AAPT, Acer, Amcor, CGU Insurance, Challenger Financial Services, Datacraft, Flight Centre, Hang Seng Bank, Mizuho Private Wealth Management, Ottagi, Ramco, SPH Search, VSNL and Telecom New Zealand.
"The explosive growth that we are experiencing in Asia Pacific, combined with a highly technically literate and multi-lingual talent pool, make Singapore the perfect location for our first data center outside of the U.S.," added Benioff.
"IDA welcomes the setting up of the new international data center by salesforce.com in Singapore. The choice of Singapore as the location is a testimony to our capabilities to support data center activities. As an established trusted hub, with excellent global connectivity and skilled infocomm manpower, Singapore is in an excellent position to support salesforce.com in delivering its innovative services globally," said RADM(NS) Ronnie Tay, CEO, Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore.
