Interconnection of data centers provides access to multiple internet service providers, which is critical if a customer is in a different location. Businesses can use this to establish a strong domestic and international presence, expanding their consumer base and business operations. Moreover, financial services digitization, particularly in emerging markets, is one of the primary market growth drivers.

Data Center Interconnect (DCI) must also share data with financial transactions and third-party providers already part of a bank's digital services environment. The primary motivator is the exponential growth in video and OTT traffic. OTT content is compressed locally in data centers to reduce overall bandwidth costs and delivered via DCI. Furthermore, the introduction of cloud services to reduce individual capital expenditure frequently drives industry growth.

As 5G technology becomes more prevalent in the data center interconnect market, it will bring massive, faster, and denser data streams, necessitating more data center capacity. It is expected to enable 5G, which necessitates a seamless network that connects all interactions and devices, making information transfer, storage, and transmission simple. As a result, organizations anticipate a significant opportunity in the data center interconnect market with the deployment of 5G. However, the high initial investment required to set up data centers impedes industry growth during the forecast period.

Industry Dynamics

Growth Drivers
The significant increase in data generation and use across various industries has increased the demand for data servers and centers. According to CloudScene data from 110 countries with available information, there were nearly 8,000 data centers globally as of January 2021. The U.S. (33% of the total), the United Kingdom (5.7%), Germany (5.5%), China (5.2%), Canada (3.3%), and the Netherlands house the majority of data centers (3.4%).

Approximately 77% are in OECD member countries, and approximately 64% are in NATO countries. There are over 2,600 data centers in the U.S., spread across the country. Also, as per Huawei, the yearly global data produced could reach 180 ZB by 2025. The percentage of unstructured data may rise, eventually reaching more than 95%. As a result, the global growth of data centers is accelerating.

In addition, data-center providers are enhancing their co-location and cloud services. Due to data center growth and distribution, improved fiber utilization, and low-cost pluggable modules, industries including OTT, ISP, financial sector, and public sector will develop their utilization cases for DCI networks. Product innovation is a key differentiator among market participants. Since the beginning of 2020, vendors such as Ciena, Infinera, Huawei, and Nokia have been pushing the boundaries of modern optics.

For instance, in September 2021, Nokia Corporation and Infradata collaborated to create an optical data center inter-connect alternative for NorthC Data-centers, the Netherlands' world's largest data center provider. NorthC would be capable of improving its customers' data-center inter-connectivity and quality inter-connected transmission services between the data-centers to match their bandwidth, connectivity, and performance needs due to Nokia's integrated IP/optical solution. Thus, the increasing data centers boost industry growth during the forecast period.
