Open DC

Open DC – a Malaysian data centre operator with six facilities across four states. A bilingual corporate website covering co-location, interconnection, managed services and a growing insights hub.

Open DC operates data centres in Malaysia, with facilities across Cyberjaya, Penang, Kedah and Johor Bahru. I built a corporate website that brings its locations, infrastructure services and company information together. The site gives enterprise IT, telecommunications and cloud buyers a way to explore the footprint, read about the services and move towards a consultation with the team.

The brief

Infrastructure buyers arrive with different starting points. Some need a facility in a particular region. Others begin with co-location, connectivity or managed services and then look at where those services are available. Open DC needed a structure that supported both journeys. The website also had to hold company background, certifications and ongoing news without letting that material bury the facility pages. I organised the content around location, solution and supporting information rather than putting every technical detail on the homepage.

What I built

• A location-led overview – The homepage introduces the footprint and provides a regional location explorer. Visitors can see the named facilities before going deeper, making geography part of the main browsing journey rather than leaving it in the footer contact details.
• Individual facility pages – Each data centre has a dedicated page. The regional grouping covers CJ1 in Cyberjaya, PE1 and PE2 in Bayan Lepas, D8-1 in Bukit Kayu Hitam, and JB1 and JB2 in Johor Bahru. The names stay visible as visitors explore the network.
• Separate solution routes – Co-location, interconnection and connectivity, and managed services have their own content. The co-location information covers racks, cages and partition suites, while the other routes let visitors focus on network connections or operational support rather than a generic services list.
• Infrastructure detail – Power, cooling, security and certification information sit alongside the connectivity ecosystem. These subjects give a buyer more to review after the initial introduction and keep practical facility considerations connected to the broader company presentation.
• Company and certification pages – The company section includes its background, vision, milestones, careers and certification material. Certifications are presented in a gallery, giving visitors a specific place to review them instead of relying only on brief homepage statements.
• An organised insights hub – News, blog content and case studies have separate listings, with video content also included in the hub. This makes it possible to browse one kind of update without treating every article as the same type of company announcement.
• English and Bahasa Malaysia news – The news content includes both languages. I kept those updates within the wider publishing structure so the website can carry company developments alongside the more permanent descriptions of facilities, solutions and infrastructure.
• A consultation enquiry route – The enquiry form includes a subject selector for co-location, connectivity or managed services. Phone and email details provide other ways to contact the team. I used WordPress with Breakdance for the page layouts and the supporting content structure.

How the Open DC website works

A visitor can start with the Open DC location explorer and move into a facility page, or choose a solution first and read about the type of support required. The regional organisation gives a clear overview before the detail. That matters when several facilities sit within the same state or serve different parts of the network.

After reviewing a location or service, the visitor can look at the supporting infrastructure and company information, then send a consultation request with the relevant subject. News, articles and case studies offer another reading path for someone still researching. They sit alongside the permanent service pages without replacing the direct route to a facility or an enquiry.

Result

Open DC has a corporate site that connects its Malaysian footprint with the services offered across the business. Buyers can find a named facility, review the relevant solution and contact the team. The separate publishing sections give the company room to explain its work and share updates, while the main navigation remains centred on the information an infrastructure buyer needs.
