Global Data Center as a Service Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By Organization Size, By Infrastructure, By Vertical (IT & Telecom, BFSI, Retail, Healthcare, Manufacturing), By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2022 – 2028

The Global Data Center As A Service Market size is expected to reach $269.7 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 27.2% CAGR during the forecast period.

Enterprises have the option to move away from direct infrastructure because of the data center as a service (DCaaS), which enables cost savings on overhead. The high cost of data center ownership, the abundance of connected devices, as well as the developing Metaverse concept are some of the key factors influencing the market growth.

It is also anticipated that data center-as-a-service will gain more traction because it gives businesses a cost-effective way to increase the production of their IT operations without implementing physical resources. The need for controllers and big spaces was reduced by the data center as a service. By using outside cloud service providers, this idea enables businesses to reduce the number of employees working in their private data centers.

Furthermore, it enables vendors to construct data center that requires little to no human interaction and is easily serviced by robots. Automation is made possible and data centers' footprints can be packed closer together, lowering operational costs. Businesses are expected to adopt the Data Center as a Service model to reduce spending and cut operational as well as overhead costs due to the pandemic outbreak's increased workload on the cloud and the revenue loss for several businesses.

Organizations are adopting cloud storage and computing solutions as a result of the significant growth in data volumes caused by the expanding IoT and 5G penetration. As a result, the pandemic outbreak had a positive effect on the DCaaS market, leading to the adoption of the DCaaS model by a number of large corporations and SMEs in order to handle increased workloads. There is expanding due to the rising use of portable data storage devices for data retrieval regardless of time or location.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

Because data centers as a service have a much higher volume data handling capacity than on-premises data centers, many businesses are likely to choose them. Besides that, the pandemic raised the data volumes by encouraging more people to use social media and other digital technologies. The adoption of data centers as a service is anticipated to be fueled by the growing shift towards cloud computing. Thus, the COVID-19 outbreak had a favorable effect on the market, leading to positive growth throughout the pandemic, which is anticipated to continue over the forecast period.

Market Growth Factors

Quick Adoption Of The Model For Subscription-Based Services

One of the key factors propelling the device-as-a-service market is the quick uptake of the subscription-based services model. Consumers can convert the high cost of buying new technology from a capital spending (CapEx) to an operating expense by using subscription-based device-as-a-service models (OpEx). Small, medium-sized, and large businesses can do this to free up cash for investments in lucrative strategic initiatives.

Introduction Of WaaS (Wearables As A Service) Model Among Enterprises
