KEY HIGHLIGHTS
• The Middle East & Africa data center market has attracted significant investments in recent years, led by countries such as Israel, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the UAE, South Africa, Kenya, Egypt, and Nigeria.
• Investments in submarine cables in the Middle East & African region have increased considerably over the years, with the government and enterprises continuously strengthening fiber infrastructure for better connectivity with other countries, which will further drive data center investments.
• Submarine cables such as Africa-1, 2Africa, India Europe Xpress (IEX), Oman Australia Cable (OAC), PEACE cable, Equiano, and METISS are expected to be functional during the forecast period.
• Telecommunication service providers and global colocation operators are the major investors in the data center industry in the Middle East& Africa region. Major cloud service providers are expected to expand their presence in the region during the forecast period.
SEGMENTATION ANALYSIS
• In the IT infrastructure segment, major revenue is generated by servers as the growth in data generation is fueling the demand for faster processing and efficient servers. This is followed by revenue from storage due to the growing adoption of flash storage among data centers and network infrastructure revenues in the Middle East and Africa data center market.
• The investment in data center cooling accounts for 15–20% of the total investment in data center construction, excluding the adoption of IT infrastructure. Cooling systems and IT infrastructure are the predominant power consumers in data centers.
• The general construction segment involves multiple parties with the presence of several vendors in the Middle East & Africa data center market. Apart from the construction, installation, and commissioning services, data centers are also majorly investing in improving physical security, monitoring, and management of facilities through data center infrastructure management (DCIM) on a real-time basis.
• The water consumption by CRAH units plays a vital role in their adoption and is likely to be considered during the selection of vendors. These units are installed in the data centers according to hot/cold aisle containment design, with various airflow paths for both cold air entry and hot air exit out of the data center’s computer room. Data centers are now being built with flexible designs, in which additional or high-power-capacity units can be incorporated within days or weeks, depending on the customers’ requirements.
