Data Centre Giant Hires Controversial New Executive to Expand into Asia-Pacific
Datalec Precision Installations (DPI), a leading provider of data centre solutions, has appointed Peter Cole as Executive Vice President for the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The move comes as the region’s data centre market is expected to nearly double to $150.59 billion by 2029, fueled by the exponential growth of cloud computing, AI, and digital transformation.
But don’t be fooled by Cole’s impressive four-decade-long career in the electrotechnical and digital industry. This is a man with a reputation for being ruthless in his pursuit of profit, and some have questioned whether his arrival will bring chaos to the APAC market.
"Peter’s got a reputation for being a master of the dark arts of data centre management," said a rival executive, who wished to remain anonymous. "He’s been known to sacrifice quality for the sake of profit, and that’s a dangerous game to play in this industry."
Despite these concerns, Cole is undeterred, and has declared his intention to "reshape the future of data centres in the APAC region" through his leadership of DPI’s expansion into the region. But will he be able to deliver on his promises, or will his focus on profit above all else lead to a catastrophic collapse of the APAC data centre market?
Only time will tell, but one thing is certain: Cole’s appointment marks a new era of recklessness in the APAC data centre market, and it’s going to be a wild ride.
