Modular Data Center Market - Global Outlook & Forecast 2022-2027

Modular Data Center Market - Global Outlook & Forecast 2022-2027

The global modular data center market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.19% during 2022-2027

A modular data center is a prefabricated, containerized, and portal method of deploying a data center that can be deployed anywhere and anytime where the data center's power capacity is required. Modular data centers encompass functional modules such as IT modules, power modules, and cooling modules. A combination of available modules from a modular data center can be placed anywhere. Modular data centers come in various sizes, forms, and shapes, depending upon the requirement.

Advantages of Modular Infrastructure:

• The time and the labor cost required for modular data center deployment are less compared to the traditional data center deployment
• The systems and the infrastructures installed in the modular data center are pre-engineered and tightly fit, offering high efficiency.
• The agility offered by the modular data centers helps to save the cost
• The flexible assembly of power, cooling, and racks promotes flexibility for the data center operators.

SEGMENT ANALYSIS:

Regarding the infrastructure segment, the functional module is expected to dominate the market with a share of around 60% in 2027. In terms of the functional module segment, the IT module is expected to dominate the market with a share of around 43% in 2027.

Increasing Modular data center design & deployment

• Continuous evolution in the design and engineering of a data center facility by key operators and architecture and engineering firms will bring in multiple innovations in the development and operations of a green data center
• Modular data center buildouts tackle challenges such as a high PUE, high operational costs of traditional data centers, and high environmental impact
• Modular data center deployment using a templatized plug-and-play method to build modules makes requirement gathering of each material type easier, ensuring there is very little or no wastage.
• The countries that have deployed 5G will witness the development of Performance-Optimized Data center (POD) facilities in countries such as Australia, the US, and China
• Developing regions such as Latin America, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East & Africa will witness modular deployment to operate a green environment.

Increase in the adoption of cloud at Edge, Big Data, and IoT

• The edge cloud is a modern method for deploying cloud data centers at several locations nearer to customers, which is boosted by the growth in the deployment of modular data centers
• The major cloud service providers such as Google, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft Azure are aiming at cloud edge computing capabilities
• Several data center operators such as Equinix, Digital Realty, Vantage Data Centers, Cologix, NEXTDC, ST Telemedia Global Data Centers, NTT Global Data Centers, Global Switch, EdgeConneX, and others host cloud on-ramps to access hyperscale cloud service providers directly and privately
• Big data and IoT are fueling the market for modular data centers as modular solutions offer flexibility to support HPC solutions such as IoT and big data
• The growing adoption of smart devices, the increasing demand for analytics, cloud adoption, and the growth of wireless networking technologies have led several organizations to invest in big data and IoT technology.
