Global Data Center Market to Hit the Market Valuation of US$ 792.29 billion by 2032 | Spending Remains Strong Despite Economic Slowdown Says Astute Analytica

Data center market is booming, with hyperscalers and edge computing driving massive growth. Demand for cloud services, AI, and IoT fuels investment, making data center solutions faster and more efficient. While security and workforce challenges exist, the distributed nature of edge computing promises lower latency and operational cost savings.


New Delhi, April 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global data center market is projected to hit the market valuation of US$ 792.29 billion by 2032 from US$ 328.10 billion in 2023 at a CAGR of 10.64% during the forecast period 2024–2032.

The global data center market is massive, with approximately 8,000 data center locations worldwide as of 2024.  Worldwide data center capital expenditure (capex) grew by 4% in 2023, reaching $260 billion, with servers leading all technology areas in revenue. However, this marked a slowdown from the double-digit growth in the previous year.  Globally, I.T. data center spending is expected to reach $222 billion in 2023, up from $212 billion in 2022 and $216 billion in 2021.

Cloud spending is a major driver of data center growth in 2024. Public cloud services spending is expected to grow by 20.4% in 2024, due to both price increases by cloud vendors and increased utilization. Cybersecurity investments are another significant factor, with around 80% of CIOs planning to increase their spending on cyber/information security in 2024. Advancements in accelerated computing for AI applications, like Nvidia's expected delivery of 100,000 AI server platforms in the current year, and expanding data center footprints are also poised to drive market growth. Investments in the Mexico data center market specifically are expected to reach USD 1.32 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 8.60%.

Despite lingering economic uncertainties and an expected slowdown in overall IT spending growth to 6.8% in 2024 (down from 8% forecast previously), data center spending by businesses remains strong. Some Wall Street analysts expect a dramatic slowdown in cloud computing spending by major tech firms. However, others believe 2022 capex spend targets and business trends for hyperscalers remain solid. Weaker economic sectors do exist, but data center construction for manufacturing and alternative energy is offsetting this.

Data center operators anticipate a temporary dip in demand growth due to economic headwinds, leading to longer sales cycles in 2023.  However, overall demand for data center space remains robust and continues to outpace supply. Most experts predict that while near-term growth may slow, they remain bullish on the longer-term outlook. From a vendor perspective, Schneider Electric, Vertiv, and Eaton were the top 3 data center physical infrastructure providers in 2023, with all experiencing double-digit revenue growth.
