Why locate your data centre in Japan?
Japan is a major economic power, with the world’s third largest economy by nominal GDP. As leading nation in technology, machinery and robotics, the country’s research and development budgets are among the largest in the world. Japan is also home to one of the most advanced mobile telecommunications markets in the world, with sophisticated consumers who use their devices for a wide array of activities.
Japan was ranked first globally in the BSA Global Cloud Computing Scorecard 2013 which examines major laws and regulations relevant to cloud computing, as well as each country’s ICT-related infrastructure and broadband deployment. Japan achieved the top score due to its comprehensive suite of modern laws that support and facilitate the digital economy and cloud computing including a convention on cybercrime, comprehensive privacy legislation, and intellectual property laws that cover the full range of protections relevant to cloud services.
