The Data Center Construction Boom

The vast warehouses of computers that power the Internet need more space and they need it now. This is a growing market known as cloud computing services which has sparked a boom in data center construction. Cloud-computing, a catchall term for data and programs accessed over the Internet is a large driver of that increase. Cloud computing services include streaming videos, online email programs, and corporate applications that are hosted on outside computers.

Data Center Construction Outlook
According to Digital Realty Strust, Inc., survey findings point to strong demand for data center space this year and next year as a large majority of enterprises expand their IT infrastructure. One of the most interesting pieces of data in this study is the lead role that power is now playing in these expansions. The need for additional power has become the main driver for data center expansion plans as companies seek facilities with adequate power and favorable utility rates to control operating costs.
