Structure Research Publishes Hong Kong Data Centre Supply Report

  • January 27, 2016

New innovative research methodology measures and projects data centre supply from a space and power perspective and both an aggregate and sub-regional basis.

TORONTO, Ontario – January 27, 2016 – Structure Research, a next-generation research firm focused on the global data centre, hosting and cloud infrastructure services industry, today announced the release of its Hong Kong Data Centre Supply Report.

This 63-page report takes an in-depth look at the size, growth trajectory and supply and demand dynamics of the Hong Kong colocation market – from both a space and power perspective. It includes a 5-year CAGR projection, detailed market share statistics, utilization trend graphs, leaderboards, extensive regional breakdowns, SWOT analyses and insight and commentary. There is also a comprehensive directory of providers, operational data centres and listings of the current build pipeline.

‘The Hong Kong data centre market continues to grow and there is a multi-dimensional story when it comes to the current state of utilization. This is a market that has modest rates of utilization from a space perspective, and even lower rates when it comes to power and that is a key data point to be aware of,’ stated Jabez Tan, lead author of the report and senior analyst at Structure Research. ‘The market is developing and there is still a meaningful amount of runway left for the current inventory that is built out’.

The data and analytics presented in this report are produced by Structure Research’s proprietary methodology that measures data centre capacity from both a space and power perspective. This is crucial because power is the truest unit of capacity in the data centre. Measuring on the basis of space alone only tells half the story.

The methodology also looks at sub-regional distribution within a given market. In Hong Kong, there are four distinct sub-regional markets that have its own unique characteristics. This report measures the size, growth trajectory and supply and demand dynamics in each of those regions and it is also done from both a space and power perspective.

This report is an excellent resource for any service provider, investor or enterprise end user looking to understand and project the data centre market in Hong Kong or find a service provider.

‘This report is literally and figuratively one of a kind. It is the bible of the Hong Kong colocation market,’ stated Philbert Shih, managing director of Structure Research. ‘Many well-known research firms are still focused on space and this approach is dated and fundamentally flawed. Structure Research was founded to address these shortcomings in the research market and this report demonstrates what we are capable of’.

This is the second data centre supply report Structure Research has published on Asia-pacific markets. Our Singapore Data Centre Supply Report was published in July 2015. Both the Singapore and Hong Kong reports will be refreshed in 2016.
