During the projected period, cost-effective IT operations are anticipated to boost the growth of the global data centre colocation market. The cap on corporations' annual spending is getting tighter as industry vertical competition heats up. Organisations are exploring leasing services for their data centre needs rather than installing in-house data centre facilities due to limited IT budgets because it is a less expensive alternative. As a result, the affordability of data centre colocation services is increasing demand, which is propelling market expansion. Additionally, during the course of the forecast period, the global data centre colocation market is expected to increase as a result of rising need for data centre infrastructure that is reliable, scalable, and secure. Because of the growing trend towards digitalization and the expanding adoption of cloud infrastructure across a range of industries, it is predicted that the use of data centre colocation will increase. Companies in every sector can access data processing and storage facilities through the use of cloud-based data centres. Thus, the market is experiencing expansion due to the increasing adoption of cloud services.
The size of the global Data Centre Colocation Market was estimated at USD 54.65 million in 2021, and it is projected to increase at a CAGR of 15.6% from 2022 to 2030.
