IT trancfer from owning to outsourcing data center space

There is a growing demand for data center space in multi-tenant facilities driven by a number of trends, according to a new report.

In the top 20 markets in the United States, Northern Virginia, New York, Boston, Seattle and Silicon Valley, there are a total of 22.1 million square feet of data center operational space, according to 451 Research. Operating rooms are revenue-producing space in a data center.

The amount of data center space grows an average of about 9 percent a year, the research firm said.

"In most areas, the question really is growing and growing faster than supply," said Kelly Morgan, research manager for multi-tenant data centers at 451 Research. "The result is that data centers fill."

The largest markets are adding space at a faster pace. Northern Virginia, for example, which accounts for about 3 million square meters, is on average an additional 12 percent per year.

In its report, said 451 Research was "an unstoppable movement" to the cloud for production workloads to host and service outsourcing. Financial services and health care lead development.

Day care, in particular, is interested in creating more lucrative space, and it often means moving IT equipment to an outsource facility, said Kelly.
