Abstract

Wholesale data centre providers are enjoying strong demand for their services. They provide the physical environment for a wide range of virtual (or cloud) services including content creation and distribution, massively multi-player online games, internal IT processes and other latency-sensitive services that have geographically disparate users. This market continues to grow despite the current economic downturn. That dynamic will drive increased competition and consolidation.
