Global Practices Advanced ci�es have rolled out various combina�ons of technologies to support their digital infrastructure. Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Amsterdam are picked for this
chapter for their wide-ranging state-of-the-art digital infrastructures, which would be relevant for Malaysia’s adop�on.
Seoul
Tokyo
State-of-the-art Digital Infrastructure A cloud-based centre adop�ng integrated technologies such as virtualisa�on and blade technologies to improve efficiency. The centre operates on a low-energy, high-efficiency and eco-friendly infrastructure. Its equipment is upgraded for op�cal communica�on networks to cope with increased data and public WiFi usage. The centre offers free WiFi across Seoul and has installed Fibre Op�c Cables along the subway lines. Integrated Security Control System The systems were created to prevent cyber-crimes. It makes swi� responses by monitoring and analysing crimes 24/7. The security control tower reinforces its informa�on security system and launches drills against cyber-a�acks and malicious emails on a regular basis.
Highway Basic Strategy A network strategy using the 5G next-genera�on telecommunica�ons standard, boas�ng the development of the fastest mobile internet network in the world. Mul�-func�onal Smart Poles Installa�on of mul�-func�onal poles equipped with communica�on base sta�ons, Wi-Fi, street ligh�ng, signage, etc., to serve as useful infrastructure to provide new community services. One smart pole model incorporates LED ligh�ng and 5G base sta�ons for mul�ple telecommunica�ons carriers. The second includes LED ligh�ng and a 5G shared-antenna system for joint use by mul�ple telco operators, as well as WiFi, digital signage and pedestrian traffic flow analysis cameras.
Shanghai
Amsterdam
Powerhouse for 5G The government has built over 25,000 5G outdoor base sta�ons and over 31,000 5G indoor small sta�ons. There are more than 120,000 data centres currently. In 2021, an addi�onal 60,000 data centres will strengthen the founda�on for informa�on technology development. New Networks High-level 5G network and "Double Gigabit" fixed broadband network. This is a new form of network security facili�es, global informa�on and communica�on hubs. New facili�es Advanced industrial innova�on infrastructures include an electronic microscope centre, advanced medical image integra�on innova�on centre and a na�onal innova�on centre for integrated circuit and equipment materials. New pla�orms A new genera�on of high-performance compu�ng facili�es and ultra-large-scale ar�ficial intelligence compu�ng and empowerment pla�orms. New terminals Deployment of neuron percep�on nodes for social governance - adds 100,000 smart EV charging sta�ons; builds a municipal-level public parking informa�on pla�orm; expands intelligent last-mile delivery facili�es; constructs Internet+ medical infrastructure; cul�vates benchmarking; builds intelligent “aerial and offshore” hubs and op�mise the construc�on of urban intelligent logis�cs infrastructure.
Advanced Data Centre One of the largest data transport hubs in the world. Eleven out of 15 sea cables for digital traffic between the US and Europe come in through the Netherlands. There are more than 200 data centres across the Netherlands. Connec�ng to AMS-IX provides internet service providers, telecom companies and cloud providers with global IP traffic routed in an efficient, fast, secure, stable and cost-effec�ve measures. This allows them to offer low latency and engaging online experiences for end-users.
To achieve the target of being the Heart of Digital ASEAN, there is an urgent need for Malaysia to accelerate the 5G roll-up and develop more advanced data centres to support the growth of smart ci�es in the country.
