Data Centre Transformation Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The global data centre transformation market size reached around USD 10.86 Billion in 2024. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 14.10% between 2025 and 2034, reaching an approximate value of nearly USD 40.61 Billion by 2034.

Key Trends in the Market

Data centre transformation refers to the process of modernising and upgrading an existing data centre infrastructure to meet the changing technology, business, and operational needs. It involves implementing new technologies, improving efficiency, enhancing scalability, and optimising the overall performance of the data centre.

• Cloud computing has emerged as a transformative force in the data centre sector. Organisations are increasingly adopting cloud services, either through public, private, or hybrid cloud models. This trend is driven by the rising need for scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency. Hence, the increasing implementation of cloud technologies is likely to significantly enhance the data centre transformation market expansion.
• With the rising concerns around data breaches, cybersecurity, and privacy regulations, data centre transformation to strengthen security measures is increasing. This includes the implementation of advanced encryption, robust access controls, and the adoption of security frameworks such as zero trust architecture.
• Data centres are also incorporating compliance standards like GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) into their operations to ensure data privacy and regulatory compliance.
• SDDC (software-defined data centre) is an architectural approach that abstracts and virtualises the entire data centre infrastructure, including computing, storage, and networking, through software-defined technologies. SDDC enables greater agility, scalability, and automation in data centre operations. SDDC is a major data centre transformation market driver, allowing organisations to adapt quickly to changing business needs.

It also helps companies to organise their infrastructure and reduce the amount of equipment. This enables them to reduce expenses while enhancing energy efficiency.

Market Share by End-User

Cloud service providers are likely to drive the market growth as businesses become more aware of the benefits of adopting cloud technologies. Cloud storage and technologies allow companies to enhance their scalability and flexibility by removing the restraints imposed by on-premises infrastructure.

Organisations gain the opportunity to transform their initial capital expenditures designated for maintaining private data centres into ongoing operational expenses linked to cloud services. This shift enables them significantly reduce IT costs.
