Containerized Data Center Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecasts (2020 - 2025)

The global containerized data center market was valued at USD 7.52 billion in 2019. It is expected to reach a value of USD 29.34 billion by 2025 at a CAGR of 25.49% during the forecast period (2020 - 2025). With the growing adoption of cloud and increasing data generation, the demand for data centers has spiked drastically over the past few years. Enterprise equipment provider, Cisco, projected the volume of digital traffic to triple over the next five years.

• The Containerized Data Center are fabricated in a manufacturing facility and shipped to the end-user in the container. Most of the components in this type of data center are preinstalled, and offer limited flexibility, in terms of replacement and upgrading components. Evidently, with many companies looking for immediate and reliable scaling solutions, containerized data centers provide flexibility to their users. For more than 40 % of organizations, scalability was one of the top challenges in maintaining a data center. The flexibility of the containerized data centers, i. e. , adding new units as and when required, allows organizations to meet the fluctuating demands in a fast way.
• Containerized data centers have found applications in many sectors, catering to different consumer needs. Disaster recovery remains one of the primary revenue-generating industries, with many organizations deploying data center containers to use computing power in areas struck with disasters. Temporary capacity elevation and high-performance computing are also significant applications for these data centers, with many users utilizing them to handle additional loads without interrupting core systems. Easy scalability and high -power efficiency are supporting the deployment of this technology
• Further, these systems' high mobility and scalability remain among the major driving factors for the market growth. The increasing demand for data centers and the increasing investments in the market are expected to grow industry growth. With the demand for these data center capacity growing, multiple companies are opting for these data centers for reliable and scalable solutions to cater to their immediate needs. As these containerized data centers offer suitable features to meet the client's requirements, the demand for these systems is expected to grow in the coming years. Limited flexibility and a lack of expertise are also challenging market growth.
• Amidst the COVID-19 crisis, the adoption of digital banking solutions is expected to further push the adoption of technologies, like containerization, cloud computing, microservices, APIs, and blockchain. Hence, the financial and banking industry is expected to provide several opportunities for containerized data centers' growth over the forecast period
• Additionally, the world's largest investors are focusing on the digital infrastructure market, citing extraordinary demand for capital to boost the data economy. Investor interest remains high even amid the COVID -19 pandemic. The growth of hyperscale computing has increased investors' interest in data centers. As the demand for modern, flexible, and scalable data center grows, investment in data centers is expected to create opportunities for the adoption of containerized data centers.
