騰訊雲計劃新增五大海外數據中心

Tencent Holdings Ltd announced last Wednesday plans to more than double the number of its offshore data centers this year, its latest push to grow its cloud business and serve both international companies as well as Chinese groups wanting to expand overseas.

騰訊控股有限公司上週三宣稱，計劃於今年內將它的海外數據中心至少翻一番，並提出了它最近擴展雲服務業務，來爲那些跨國公司和計劃向海外發展的國內公司提供服務的計劃。

With the new Silicon Valley data center inaugurated last Tuesday, the internet giant said another four are in the pipeline in Frankfurt, Mumbai, Seoul and Moscow.

在新硅谷數據中心上於週二設立後，這個互聯網界的巨頭表示，另外的四個數據中心計劃設在法蘭克福、孟買、首爾和莫斯科。

Tencent said cloud operations in Hong Kong and the Silicon Valley are also slated for expansion this year.

騰訊方面表示，位於香港和硅谷的雲計算中心還計劃在今年擴大規模。

"We want to grow our overseas cloud capability to meet the rising demand from companies around the world as they look for fast, reliable, secure and cost-effective services to expand globally and migrate to the cloud era", said Rita Zeng, vice-president of Tencent's cloud computing arm.

騰訊雲計算公司副總裁曾佳欣稱：“我們想要增強我們在海外的雲服務能力，來滿足世界各地的公司對於迅捷、可靠、安全、高效的服務日益迫切的需要。他們需要藉此來向全球發展，並走向一個雲服務的時代。”

The data centers are designed to meet companies' soaring demand for high availability and recovery, along with greater access to offerings including data storage and analytics, as more businesses tap into cloud computing to boost operational efficiency and innovation.

隨着越來越多的公司利用雲計算來大幅提高操作效率，促進創新，這些數據中心是爲了滿足公司對於有效性、恢復能力越來越高的要求，以及對於數據儲存和數據分析的有效途徑的需求。

The new data centers form part of Tencent's broader strategy to invest in the latest technologies, such as cloud, security, big data and artificial intelligence.

這些新的數據中心爲騰訊帶來了一些更廣泛的戰略，來投資建設最新的技術，比如雲服務，保密服務，大數據和人工智能。
