Anaplan has launched its new Amazon Web Services data centre in Singapore. This strategic expansion is designed to accelerate digital transformation and empower businesses in Southeast Asia with advanced artificial intelligence capabilities for real-time planning and decision-making.
The new data centre will significantly enhance Anaplan’s global infrastructure and offer faster data processing, improved security and regulatory compliance.
These features are essential for protecting sensitive information and meeting local data sovereignty requirements, which is especially critical for industries such as public sector and financial services.
“The launch of Anaplan on AWS in Singapore represents a strategic milestone and reinforces our shared commitment to customers across Asia-Pacific,” said Carol Potts, general manager for North America ISV sales at AWS.
By leveraging the Anaplan platform, businesses in the region will gain access to leading AI and machine learning technologies, enabling them to optimize planning processes, enhance data security, and drive AI innovation.
“Data sovereignty is a stringent requirement for our clients, and our new location ensures that their data remains within Singapore, adhering to local regulations,” said Amit Bagga, managing director, APAC, at Anaplan.
“Plus, with Anaplan Intelligence, businesses can harness the power of AI to optimize and unify their finance, workforce, sales, and supply chain planning processes, gain deeper insights and make strategic decisions with confidence,” he said.
This regional addition marks another milestone in Anaplan’s $500-million innovation roadmap, aimed at expanding the company’s global reach and supporting local businesses with the latest AI-driven planning and analytics technology.
The company has also made other data centre expansions in the Asia-Pacific region, including in India, Indonesia, and Australia, further solidifying its commitment to the region.
