Data Center Colocation Market - Global Outlook and Forecast 2020-2025: Cloud Computing, Cloud Connectivity, & Hybrid Infrastructure Services Drive Colocation Demand

Dublin, Nov. 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Data Center Colocation Market - Global Outlook and Forecast 2020-2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global data center colocation market by revenue is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 7% during the period 2019-2025.

The data center colocation industry is expected to witness high growth during the forecast period due to the increased demand for data center operations among enterprises in several industry verticals. North America contributes around 43% to the overall revenue, which is followed by APAC and Western Europe with a market share of 27% and 18%, respectively.

The US, China, and Japan are the prominent revenue contributors to the industry. Colocation providers are expanding their existing facilities, which are likely to drive market revenue during the forecast period. The establishment of new cloud regions, which is, i.e., over 25, by AWS, Google, and Microsoft during the period 2019-2022, is expected to provide a significant boost to wholesale colocation service growth on the global scale.

The rise in demand from several businesses has increased mergers and acquisitions activities to increase their portfolio, thereby increasing the data center colocation market growth. The increase in power consumption and the need to reduce carbon footprint have driven several service providers to procure clean and renewable energy sources to power their existing and upcoming facilities across the globe. The implementation of the 5G network has already started in countries such as the US, China, South Korea, Finland, Japan, and a few countries in Europe. This is projected to increase the demand for edge colocation facilities during the forecast period.

Global Data Center Colocation Market Segmentation

The global data center colocation market research report includes a detailed segmentation by electrical infrastructure, mechanical infrastructure, general construction, service type, geography. UPS systems have been the highest contributors to the market revenue through the adoption of VRLA battery-powered systems. The adoption of UPS systems has become a critical task for data center operators and designers as they account for over 30% of failures identified in the facility. The adoption of lithium-ion UPS systems has grown considerably over the past years.

The adoption of generator systems with a capacity of over 2 MW is higher because of the increased construction of large and mega facilities. Most facilities are currently deploying on-site fuel storage for at least 72 hours to power data center operations in case of power outages. Cost, reliability, efficiency, and maintenance are the major factors responsible for the adoption of UPS and generators.

The adoption of cooling units is highly dependent on the IT load; the growth in rack densities and the need to function cooling systems at low loads are driving the installation of the modern cooling infrastructure. Data center operators are procuring innovative cooling solutions that aim to enhance operational efficiency, reduce power consumption, and decrease carbon emissions. Data center operators have adopted innovative and energy-efficient cooling solutions to reduce power consumption by up to 50%, thereby driving the market demand.

The North American market has a strong presence of general contractors and sub-contractors. The competition will increase over the next few years. Expertise in developing data centers within a short span of time, i.e., less than one year, will be a key criterion for the operators in the selection of general contractors. Several operators have strong partnerships with general contractors. Western Europe is the most active market in the European region for data center construction. Several facilities are being designed and built to cover an area of over 100,000 square feet.

The retail colocation industry is likely to grow due to the adoption of single or multiple racks with a total capacity of less than 250 kW. The increasing preference for colocation services among organizations for better control and high bandwidth and interconnectivity is a significant factor, which is influencing the market growth. The growing demand from developing economies is likely to drive colocation services. Also, enterprises with the need for geographically distributed capacity and limited budgets are likely to opt for retail colocation.
