MongoDB, a database for modern applications, has expanded the availability of its multi-cloud platform, MongoDB Atlas, to Amazon Web Services (AWS) Regions in Malaysia and Thailand.
The move is aimed at meeting rising demand for cloud-native applications and improving data performance and latency for local users.
The expansion comes as MongoDB experiences strong growth across Southeast Asia, with regional headcount increasing by more than 200% over the past two years.
Its Asia Pacific operations have generated over US$220 million in annual revenue.
With the addition of Malaysia and Thailand, MongoDB Atlas is now available on AWS across Asia-Pacific markets including Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Singapore, and South Korea.
The platform is used by companies across various industries for its performance, security, and flexibility.
In Thailand, AI company Botnoi uses MongoDB Atlas to efficiently manage and analyse large datasets for applications such as chatbots and voice bots, helping automate customer service and technical support.
In Malaysia, EasyEat uses the platform to streamline daily operations, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction for over 2,000 restaurants and more than four million users across Malaysia and Indonesia.
MongoDB said the local availability of Atlas will help customers meet data residency requirements, reduce latency, and accelerate digital transformation and innovation across the region.
“Bringing MongoDB Atlas to Malaysia and Thailand on AWS is a big milestone for us, and is an important step in MongoDB’s growth across the region. We’re giving businesses the tools to tap into real-time insights, strong security, and unmatched scalability so they can roll out modern applications faster.
This launch goes beyond improved availability and latency—it supports digital transformation, sparking innovation and boosting economic growth across Southeast Asia.”
said Stewart Garrett, Regional Vice President, ASEAN and Japan, MongoDB.
“AWS is committed to helping customers innovate with the best tools and technologies where they need them most. We’re excited to support MongoDB Atlas’s expansion into Malaysia and Thailand, bringing powerful database capabilities closer to customers on our regional infrastructure.
This collaboration helps businesses across Southeast Asia innovate faster while meeting their data residency requirements and performance needs.”
said Kirsten Gilbertson, Partner Organisation Leader, ASEAN, AWS.
