What happened in 2023? Timeline contributions requested

Every year-end, TechTrade Asia compiles comments about tech milestones for the year.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)' plans to set up cloud computing infrastructure in Malaysia caught the eye of Sandeep Bhargava, MD Asia Pacific and Japan at Rackspace Technology in March, for example.

"The rising demand for cloud services in Malaysia prompted the government to sanction the construction of fresh data centres by Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, and Telekom Malaysia within the country, aligning with its cloud-focused approach and the Malaysian Digital Economy Blueprint," he said. 

This year, contributors are also invited to share what major announcements they made around generative AI.

HPE, for example, recently announced a collaboration with NVIDIA to deliver an enterprise-class, full-stack GenAI solution. The company also launched new AI-native architecture and hybrid cloud solutions.
