- With non-hyperscale colocation capacity accounting for another 23% of capacity, that leaves on-premise data centers with just 40% of the total.
- This is in stark contrast to five years ago, when almost 60% of data center capacity was in on-premise facilities.
- The colocation and leased data center research is based on Synergy's in-depth tracking of the colocation market, including quarterly data on over 230 individual companies.
- On-premise data centers will not disappear any time soon, but their scale is being increasingly dwarfed by hyperscale and colocation companies.
