JLM covers the advanced hardware for data centers. The strongest area is for data centers on a “green” platform mainly reducing energy cost with innovative technology.
The global hyperscale data centres market will grow from $35.72 billion in 2022 to $41.69 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.7%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The hyperscale data centres market is expected to grow to $76.73 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 16.5%.
The hyperscale data centres market consists of revenues earned by entities by providing hyperscale data centres that support many physical and virtual servers simultaneously. This industry includes companies with distributed data warehouses that focus on maintaining the data's scalability and managing a large amount of data. Hyperscale data centres operate in buildings or dedicated spaces within a building or a group of buildings that house computer systems and related components, such as telecommunications and storage systems on a large scale, with thousands of individual servers operating together through a high-speed network. The market value includes the value of related goods sold by the service provider or included within the service offering. Only goods and services traded between entities or sold to end consumers are included.
The various user types of hyperscale data centres are cloud providers, colocation providers, and enterprises. The component of hyperscale data centres is solution and service. Cloud providers are software infrastructures that store data on remote servers. The various type of data centre sizes is small and medium-sized data centres and large data centres. The data can be accessed through the Internet. The different applications are manufacturing, government utilities, BFSI, IT and telecommunication, healthcare, and energy.
The increase in internet users increases the amount of generated data that needs to be managed and stored by hyperscale data centres. For instance, according to an article published by International Telecommunication Union, a Switzerland-based United Nations agency to organise global telecommunications activities and services estimated that in 2022, 5.3 billion people, or 66% of the world's population, will be utilising the Internet. This marks a 24% growth from 2019 with an expected 1.1 billion individuals using the internet throughout that time. Increased numbers of internet users and faster wireless internet access drive the demand for hyperscale data centres.
The hyperscale data centres require a continuous high power supply to process and store the data. According to a report by Forbes Technology Council, U.S. data centres use more than 90 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity a year. The data centre facilities consume power for data-intensive operations and thus, power failure puts the operations of data centres to a halt. Power loss to a server causes great damage to the customers and to the business model of these hyperscale data centres. For instance, a power failure for 30 minutes affected Amazon's data centre in US-EAST-2 region in Ohio and resulted in connectivity issues which impacted amazon's services like RDS (Amazon Relational Database Service), Redshift (an Internet hosting service and data warehouse product), WorkSpaces, EC2 (Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud), and EBS (Amazon Elastic Block Store), which stored their data in US-EAST-2 data centre.
The major players operating in hyperscale data market are investing in finding alternatives to meet their high-power requirements for existing and new facilities across the globe to reduce their carbon footprint. The leading data centre providers are purchasing clean, renewable energy sources. For instance, Apple announced for an investment of over $921 million for the construction of a hyperscale infrastructure facility in Denmark that will entirely operate on renewable energy sources. Similarly, Google announced plans to invest around $700 million for a data centre in Denmark that will use renewable energy generated through power purchase agreements (PPAs).
UPS Battery Market Size for Data Center Industry Market to grow by USD 2.11 billion, Driven by Increase in Adoption of Modular UPS Systems
The segmented by Product (Lead-acid battery and Lithium-ion battery) USD 2.11 billion from 2021 to 2026. However, the growth momentum will likely decelerate at a CAGR of 6.35%.Technavio categorises the uninterruptible power supply (UPS) battery market for the data centre industry as a part of the global renewable electricity market.
One of the key trends driving data centre UPS market growth is the rising demand for data and information exchange capacity. Furthermore, rising digitisation and technology penetration, such as IoT and 5G are expected to boost the data centre UPS industry in the coming years. An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is an electrical system that provides backup power to the grid when the main power or input supply fails. A data centre UPS is a backup power supply used in data centres during a power outage. When utility power fails, a UPS serves as a battery backup in data centres, supplying power to the system for long enough to fully power down machinery. However, technological breakthroughs in cloud-based solutions, data management, and the growth of convenient data collection and storage systems are propelling the data centre UPS market forward.
