Anaplan has announced the launch of its new Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centre in Singapore, a strategic move aimed at accelerating digital transformation across Southeast Asia. This expansion will empower businesses with advanced artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities for real-time planning and decision-making, enhancing Anaplan’s global infrastructure with faster data processing, improved security, and regulatory compliance.
The new data centre is particularly significant for industries such as the public sector and financial services, where protecting sensitive information and meeting local data sovereignty requirements are critical. Carol Potts, general manager for North America ISV sales at AWS, described the launch as a “strategic milestone” that reinforces Anaplan’s commitment to customers across the Asia-Pacific region.
Businesses leveraging the Anaplan platform will benefit from AI-driven insights, enabling more informed, data-driven decisions that streamline operations and improve efficiency. The centre ensures that data remains within Singapore, adhering to local regulations, and supports companies in embedding AI technology into planning processes, driving innovation and competitiveness.
Amit Bagga, managing director, APAC, at Anaplan, expressed delight in bringing the platform to Singapore, highlighting the importance of data sovereignty for clients. The new location allows businesses to optimise and unify their finance, workforce, sales, and supply chain planning processes with confidence.
This development is part of Anaplan’s $500m innovation roadmap, which includes other data centre expansions in India, Indonesia, and Australia, further solidifying its commitment to the Asia-Pacific region.
