On March 7, 2024, Digital Realty, the largest global provider of cloud- and carrier-neutral data center, colocation, and interconnection solutions, announced the expansion of its in-house artificial intelligence (AI) platform, Apollo, to the Asia Pacific region. This move is part of the company's strategy to enhance energy efficiency across its global portfolio. The Apollo AI platform, which was initially piloted in late 2019 at two European sites, is now deployed at 16 sites across six countries in Europe. By the end of 2024, Digital Realty plans to double Apollo's footprint, marking its debut in Asia Pacific with one site in Melbourne and one in Singapore. The AI platform has already identified approximately 18 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of expected and realized energy savings across the 16 sites, equivalent to the energy usage of about 1,600+ U.S. households in a year.
