Data Center Infrastructure Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Solution (Hardware, Software, Services), By End Users (Cloud Provider, Enterprise, Colocation Provider), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

The global data centre infrastructure market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.23%, reaching a market size of US$5.859 billion in 2029 from US$3.795 billion in 2024.

Data center infrastructure includes IT infrastructure devices, equipment, and technologies that strongly comprise a data centre. Data center infrastructure is even required by IT and big multinational companies for storing data and running networks across their businesses. This market is growing due to increasing colocation and data centres worldwide. The increasing demand for cloud networking is majorly driving the market for data centre infrastructure. The increasing need for data centres to store this ever-growing volume of data is fueling the demand for data centre infrastructure.

The data centre infrastructure market is also growing due to increased demand for servers, computers, networking equipment like routers or switches, security components like firewalls or biometric security sensors, storage capacity, and data centre management software and applications. The market is also witnessing noteworthy growth owing to the aging IT infrastructure, which cannot store the current data volume. As such, companies are moving towards more intelligent physical infrastructure data centre systems.

The global data centre infrastructure market is segmented by solution, end-user, and geography. By solution, it is divided into hardware, software, and services. The market is further segmented by end-users into cloud providers, enterprise, and colocation providers.

Global Data Centre Infrastructure Market Drivers:

• Rising demand for hardware data solutions

The growing number of data centres worldwide is augmenting the demand for hardware solutions to manage data centres. The increasing number of cloud service providers demands more storage facilities, with a growing volume of big data generated yearly. This, in turn, is spurring the demand for servers, cables, networking equipment, storage space, and physical server racks & chassis, thus driving the market for the data centre infrastructure.

Further, the growing use of data centres is increasing the requirement for data centre infrastructure software for managing data centres and colocation centres. Increasing investments to create a skilled workforce will likely support the growth of service solutions. For example, companies like Cisco are providing certified courses for special training in data centre networking and technology to improve employees' fit according to advancing technology.

• Increasing use by cloud service providers

The growth is attributed to the increasing number of cloud service providers worldwide for storing data and providing smooth access to their customers using efficient networking devices. This, in turn, bolsters the market growth of data centre infrastructure. The colocation centre as an end-user segment also holds considerable market share with increasing investments in colocation centres due to the requirement for large data storage spaces for big IT and multinational companies that need additional space for storing data and for networking purposes.

A lot of cloud service providers and colocation centres are collaborating to provide data centre infrastructure in various countries across the world for better connectivity and networking. For example, Interxion, a leading provider of carrier and cloud-neutral colocation data center services in Europe, announced that dedicated access to Google Cloud Platform would be available across Europe through its Cloud Connect. Additionally, a new data center is set to be set up in Frankfurt by the company as a response to continuous demand from customers

Global Data Centre Infrastructure Market Restraint:

• High energy consumption & complex cooling needs

High energy utilization and complex cooling requirements greatly restrict the market for data center infrastructure. Data centers are famous for their high power usage; as they increase in size and capacity, the more power they need. This leads to considerable operational costs and environmental concerns because of the carbon emissions associated with the production of electricity. Data center operators are being forced to make costly and time-consuming investments in energy-efficient infrastructure to reduce energy consumption and meet sustainability targets.

Data centers also face another significant barrier in demanding cooling conditions there. To maintain optimum temperatures needed to run servers and equipment requires complicated cooling systems. Hence, it is necessary for them to be established and maintained, which is always expensive in terms of capital outlay at any given time due to the frequent use of a lot of energy by such plants for their operations, including paying electricity bills. Cooling infrastructure has made it harder for administrators of data centers because there is a lot of it involved, which is hard to manage and calls for specific knowledge and resources. Consequently, the market demand for data center infrastructure is constrained by these challenges, which present obstacles in the form of cost, energy efficiency, and operational complexity.

Global Data Centre Infrastructure Market Geographical Outlook

• North America is expected to grow rapidly during the forecast period.

In North America, there are multiple technology wizards. Cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT) technology are very popular in this area. It will be necessary for data center facilities with trustworthy data centers to deal with the increasing complexities of these technologies. Moreover, the U.S. economy is one of the globe’s fastest-growing economies, which will likely motivate the growth of public cloud data centers. Data centres are widely used in the United States, where the IT industry is the largest employer in the private sector and drives the market growth. Additionally, in the hyper-scale platforms in the United States, data centre services have become mandatory attributable to the increased hyper-scale platforms in the country.

Global Data Centre Infrastructure Market Developments:

• In January 2024, NTT, a multinational provider of IT infrastructure and services, opened its new data center campus in India. The campus is located in the Delhi NCR's Noida data center corridor. According to company reports, it provides seamless access to premier public cloud providers, is carrier-neutral, and is networked with NTT's other data center locations for low latency. The six-acre campus will house two data centers with a combined critical IT load capacity of 52.8 MW.
• In August 2023, with the formation of the Data Center and Digital Infrastructure practice group, Newmark Group, Inc. ("Newmark" or "the Company"), a prominent commercial real estate adviser and service provider to major institutional investors, multinational corporations, and other owners and occupiers, announces the expansion of its Capital Markets services and deepens its understanding of alternative assets. To strengthen the practice group, Newmark also appointed Brent Mayo as Executive Managing Director
