Why is the data center beating the global recession?

The seven markets which indicate the greatest increase in facilities and racks are all developing economies where the existing data center infrastructure is currently not adequate to cope with IT capacity requirements. The top ten here is rounded out by the strongest growing European markets. All of the fastest developing data center markets are also projected to indicate the highest increases in GDP over the next 12 months.


Ranking indicates some idiosyncracies – particularly in markets where there will be strong growth in investment rather than in facility growth – South East Asia, Middle East, Australia and Central US markets. These are markets where considerable investment is being made in upgrading existing data center stock.


While the most spectacular growth is generally seen in developing markets, the quantum of growth is balanced between developed and developing markets. Thus, the dollar value of the increase in investment across the three US markets is equivalent to all growth across the Asia Pacifi c region.
