Amazon Web Services to Double Data Center Capacity in Israel with New 60,000 sqm Facility

Amazon Web Services (AWS) has signed a letter of intent to lease a 10.5-acre plot near Netanya, Israel, for a new data center that could significantly expand its cloud and AI capabilities in the region. The planned facility, set to span 60,000 square meters with a 35-40 MW energy capacity, has the potential to double AWS's current operations in Israel by 2030.

The move aligns with AWS's ongoing expansion efforts following the government's Nimbus cloud tender win, despite temporary pauses during the recent conflict. With an investment of up to $800 million, the new center would support both government and private sector clients, marking a key step in AWS's global strategy to boost its cloud and AI infrastructure.
