The company is partnering with Tractors Machinery International (TMI) to distribute its data center modules in Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei. TMI will serve as the exclusive distributor of the IO.Anywhere platform in these countries, providing the local presence IO needs to expand its concepts in the region.<\/p>\n<p>Modular design was initially viewed as a niche play by many in the data center industry, but has been seeing increasing traction. Once thought to be limited to mobile requirements, temporary capacity, or novel designs like cloud computing facilities, there\u2019s been an influx of wins, discussions and partnerships around modular designs in general. The IO_TMI partnership extends that trend to new geographies.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;IO\u2019s Data Center 2.0 products are embraced by the most demanding enterprise technology users in the world, and Asia Pacific is a highly sophisticated market,&#8221; said Oon Ho Tan, General Manager of Tractors Machinery International Pte.
