"We help multinational companies establish footholds and grow their businesses in Asia by offering them robust data centers, uniformly consistent network services, an expanding range of cloud services and expert local presence in individual Asian markets," Katsumi Nakata, NTT's executive vice president for global strategy, said in a statement.
The Vietnam data center will be located in Ho Chi Minh. It is scheduled to launch in third quarter of 2011. The facility, NTT's second in the country, will be designed, built and operated by Global Data Service JSC, a joint venture between NTT and the government-owned Vietnam Posts and Telecommunications Group, the nation's largest telecom.
The company's existing Vietnam data center, called Thang Long, is located in Hanoi.
The Singapore data center, slated to come online in the first quarter of 2012, will be located in Serangoon. It will be built and operated by NTT Worldwide Telecommunications Corp.
