H3C recently announced that it will work with Foxconn to build its first overseas plant in Malaysia, which is scheduled to start production in September, followed by plants in the United States, Mexico and Europe in the next two to three years.
Yu Yingtao, president and CEO of H3C, made the announcement during the "Zhejiang-Taiwan Cooperation Week 2024".
Under the Malaysia project, H3C will leverage its expertise in artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data and information security to provide digital solutions and technical support, which will be used to facilitate Malaysia's digital transformation and provide comprehensive solutions and services. The move is in line with H3C's overseas expansion strategy, which has deployed UIS hyperconverged infrastructure across major hospitals in Malaysia and supported hospital data centers through PACS/HIS system virtualization.
According to the industry, this deployment enhances the digital management, retrieval, distribution and realisation of local medical image documents, thereby contributing to digital transformation and economic development in Malaysia and Southeast Asia. The two sides will take advantage of Taiwan's precision manufacturing advantages to enter and expand overseas markets.
H3c will use Foxconn's chip manufacturing facilities in Malaysia. This follows Foxconn's acquisition of about 5.03% stake in Dagang Nexchange Bhd of Malaysia (DNex), which holds a 60% stake in SilTerra. As a result, the investment will give Foxconn indirect control of an 8-inch wafer fab in Malaysia with a monthly capacity of about 40,000 wafers using 28nm and 40nm process nodes.
At the same time, FII, a Foxconn subsidiary, has benefited from a surge in demand for computing facilities, with artificial intelligence (AI) servers becoming a new growth engine and AI computing accounting for 30% of its business revenue.
It is reported that Industrial Fulian has received orders from large customers such as Alibaba, Amazon and Apple, and is expected to account for 40% of the company's AI business revenue in 2024, and the share of its AI servers in the global market will increase to 40%.
