Princeton Digital Group (PDG), a prominent data center provider with presence across APAC, has achieved the OCP Ready™ v2 for Hyperscale certification from the Open Compute Project Foundation for three of its facilities including its TY1 AI ready data center in Greater Tokyo. Developed by the OCP Foundation, the OCP Ready™ v2 for Hyperscale program sets stringent, community-driven standards for data center deployments.
Located in Saitama City, Greater Tokyo, the campus offers a capacity of 96MW. Engineered for cutting-edge AI workloads, TY1 supports power densities of over 140 kW per rack. The campus recently earned the NVIDIA DGX-Ready Data Center partner certification for liquid cooling. The OCP Ready™ v2 for Hyperscale certification is significant because it evaluates a facility’s readiness to support hyperscale workloads across critical areas such as logistics, access, infrastructure, power, cooling, and connectivity, allowing hyperscalers to identify qualified sites earlier in their development cycles and accelerate time-to-market.
The certification has been awarded to two other PDG AI-ready campuses:
MU1 Mumbai campus (India): Located in Airoli, Navi Mumbai, MU1 offers 150 MW of critical IT capacity across five buildings. It provides reliable power supply from a dedicated 220kV GIS. The campus is powered with renewable energy and achieved Mumbai’s first IGBC Platinum certification.
JH1 Johor campus (Malaysia): Located in Sedenak Tech Park, Johor, the 170 MW JH1 campus spans three buildings and covers over 128,000 square meters, making it one of Southeast Asia’s largest AI-ready data centers.
“The demands of AI and hyperscale computing are redefining digital infrastructure, and PDG is at the forefront with TY1, JH1, and MU1 now OCP Ready™ v2 certified for hyperscale,” said Varoon Raghavan, Chief Operating Officer and Co-founder, PDG. “This rigorous certification aligns with our mission to deliver future-ready solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers.”
“The OCP Ready™ v2 for Hyperscale program sets a clear benchmark for hyperscale-grade colocation,” said George Tchaparian, Chief Executive Officer, OCP. “PDG’s achievement, reflects a strong commitment to OCP’s community-defined best practices. It provides hyperscalers with trusted, high-quality options in strategic Asia Pacific markets.”
