Data Center Capacity Trends
About this Research Service
The Synergy Research Group Data Center Capacity Trends research tracks the overall capacity of operational data centers. As the need for additional computing capacity has risen inexorably, driven primarily by cloud and AI services, so the physical location of that capacity has changed. Once, the great majority of data center capacity was in enterprise on-premise facilities, but that has now changed dramatically with the rapid rise of huge data centers run by hyperscale operators. Colocation companies sit in the middle ground between enterprise on-premise facilities and hyperscale data centers, and colocation capacity continues to grow as both enterprise and service provider customers look to push their IT hardware into specialist offsite facilities. This research tracks and quantifies those trends.
