DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Australia Data Center Market - Growth, Trends, COVID-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2021 - 2026)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Australian data center market is estimated to register a CAGR of about 4.5% during the forecast period 2021 to 2026

The growing cloud computing`(further fueled due to COVID-19), increasing cloud computing among SMEs, government regulations for local data security, and growing investment by domestic players are some of the major factors driving the demand for data centers in the country.

Government initiatives like the Australia Government Information Management Office (AGIMO) are leading the way in optimizing data center resources with the introduction of the Australia Government Data Centre Strategy 2010-2025, and the strategy represents a transition from using government-run data centers to third-party, multi-tenant data centers.

The data center providers are also increasingly investing or adopting an acquisition strategy to expand their capacity. For instance, Metronode's data center assets acquisition by Equinix provided the company additional capacity to capture the benefits of scale and adds approximately 20,000 square meters of gross colocation space to Equinix's footprint in Australia.

Currently, about 10-15% of data is created and processed outside a centralized data center or cloud, but the number is expected to cross 60-70% by 2025, a global trend that is also reflecting in Australia. The recent COVID-19 crisis has further highlighted that Australia has a great need for digital infrastructure to improve connectivity for remote and rural areas. Hence, edge data centers are becoming more viable options for Australian vendors, especially start-ups.

Australian Privacy Principles (APPS) law in the country has placed a new focus on data governance and security for cloud and data center organizations. Furthermore, the recent COVID-19 has put high pressure on end-user companies to support remote working and are fast-tracking their cloud and digitization journeys. Companies like NEXTDC, Macquarie Data Centres, and Equinix claim that this will boost the domestic data center market.

Competitive Landscape

The Australian data center market is competitive and fragmented as players are increasingly manufacturing new facilities in Australia, providing more offerings to end-users. Key players are NTT Communications Corporation, Equinix Inc..
