Russia Data Center Market Trends

Tier 3 is the largest Tier Type

• The tier 3 segment in Russia reached an IT load capacity of 459.63 MW in 2022. They are projected to register a CAGR of 5.63%, surpassing 700.98 MW by 2029. The tier 4 segment is projected to register a CAGR of 32.83% to reach an IT load capacity of 782.78 MW by 2029.
• Tier 1 & 2 facilities are gradually losing their demand, which may continue in the coming years. Tier 1 & 2 facilities are expected to hold a market share of nearly 2.3% by 2029. This minimal growth is likely to be a result of prolonged and inconsistent outages. Most users will eventually switch to tier 3 and 4 facilities, which currently hold 55.6% and 42.1% of the market, respectively, due to the increased demand for storing, processing, and analyzing data.
• The e-commerce and BFSI segments are expanding. In recent years, Russia has seen a rise in the use of online and mobile banking. For instance, the volume of online sales of physical goods in Russia grew 1.5-fold Y-o-Y in the first half of 2022 to 2.2 trillion. In 2020, domestic Russian online sales of physical items reached USD 37 billion, an increase of 58% from 2019.
• Tier 4 data centers are projected to grow significantly in the coming years as more businesses are providing cloud-based services. Therefore, many data center providers are constructing facilities to provide colocation spaces with the best technology.
• The Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022 boosted the prices of cloud services significantly as major Western manufacturers stopped supplying IT equipment to the Russian market due to logistical issues and the increased value of the Dollar and Euro.
