India has always been
one of the most promising economies for technological advancement and support.
Its outsourcing business is growing by leaps and bounds every day and
apparently it seems there is no slowing down. If one of the sectors of the
business slows down another one picks up. Currently, India is preparing to meet
the increasing demand for data centers.
With the increase of
industry, workforce and business, there is an increasing requirement of storage
space. There needs to be someplace where all these data need to be stored. An
increase in the number of virtual spaces used to also demand an increase in dedicated servers for hosting, storing
and archiving.
Since each and every
industry is now based on information technology, irrespective of the growth or
decline of a particular industry, data center in India are increasing in
importance. A data center is basically a repository of dedicated servers that host, manage and archive all kinds of data
passed over email clients and web hosting services. These data need to be
cleansed periodically from the user desktops or laptops, but gets stored in the
data centers for a definite period of time. As a result with the increase of
companies and workforce, there is an ever increasing demand of data storage
space. Most companies cannot afford the cost to bring in dedicated servers for archival uses. They contract third-party
enterprises, who offer data center facilities to these companies.
India is still growing
in the data storage and support industry. But considering the amount of growth
there has been in market penetration, mobile usage and corporate email
solutions, it can be predicted that there is an upcoming boom in the data centers in India. The outsourced
data center market in India is expected to grow at a CAGR of 32% to INR 5,500
crore by 2017 across all verticals. The growth will be mainly based due to the
increase in business demand from banking and financial service, manufacturing,
media and entertainment and international telecom market.
In 2012, DCD
Intelligence Industry Census collected data and analyzed that investment in data centers in Indian market is pegged
to grow over US$ 4.4 billion by 2013. This will spurt an increase in the data center
storage facility space as well as the total power usage for the facilities. An
increase in the investment in the data center storage industry will also brings
in greater investment in real estate and power, due to the increase in storage
facility requirement.
Most Tier IV and Tier
III companies do not require a dedicated
server for their facility. The few many that do need, satisfy their
requirements with one of two servers and a small network room. None of the Tier
IV and Tier III companies have a requirement huge enough to contract the
services of a data center in India, which is unlike the case for Tier II and
Tier I.
