How Telehouse connects and powers the digital world
August 22, 2024The growing demand for data center services
In today’s interconnected world, seamless data flow is the lifeblood of digital interaction. Businesses and consumers alike rely on a robust digital infrastructure to facilitate their activities and support their daily lives, with data centres serving as the critical facilities which house, maintain and optimise this equipment. Data centers play a pivotal role in enabling the smooth operation of numerous, every-day digital services and platforms, including online shopping, while fuelling the success of smart cities and technologies such as IoT.
Market trends indicate a significant shift towards digitalisation, marked by data volumes and the utilisation of AI growing at an unprecedented rate. According to Statista figures, data centre market revenue is expected to show an annual expansion rate of 6.56%, reaching $438.7bn by 2028, illustrating the ongoing strong demand for data centre facilities to support organisations with their ongoing digital transformation journeys.
In addition, IDC predicts that the global datasphere will grow to 163 zettabytes by 2025, with nearly 20% of the data critical to our daily lives and 10% hyper-critical. The AI spending across hardware, software and services is also predicted to soar a whopping 820% to exceed $1.8 trillion by 2030, according to Grand View Research. This robust growth shows the indispensable role of data centres in sustaining our digital-first world.
The important role of data centers in connecting global ecosystems
Data centres transcend their traditional roles as mere repositories for storing data. They are integral to the architecture of the global digital ecosystem, facilitating critical interconnections that enable businesses, governments, and consumers to engage seamlessly across the globe.
Telehouse’s carrier-neutral data centers are central to this connectivity. By offering unrestricted and unrivalled access to global connectivity partners, they enable businesses to grow, establish a competitive market presence and gain resilience. Carrier-neutral facilities are vital for businesses that depend on reliable and resilient connections to operate without disruptions, particularly in environments where downtime can result in significant financial losses and reduced customer trust.
The global footprint of a data center provider is equally critical. A data center provider with a worldwide presence provides businesses with numerous strategic advantages. It ensures that companies can maintain the continuity of their operations and reach their customers and partners in different parts of the world by facilitating the rapid transfer of data and increased reliability. This is especially important for industries that rely on real-time data exchange, such as financial services, e-commerce, and online entertainment, where milliseconds can dictate the success of a transaction or user experience.
