The Impact of Hyperscale Data Centers

The hyperscale data center is reshaping the global IT landscape, shifting data from on-premises computer rooms and IT closets to massive centralized data center hubs. Workloads are consolidating in the world's largest and most efficient facilities. These cloud campuses offer economies of scale, enabling hyperscale operators to rapidly add server capacity and electric power.

Hyperscale companies have become thelargest customers for leasing wholesale andbuild-to-suit data center space. As a result,these customers hold huge sway over datacenter development, which has evolvedrapidly to adapt to hyperscale requirements.

It has become routine for these hyperscale companies-especially the top tier of Amazon Web Services,Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Apple-to invest$1 billion to $3 billion in a single campus.

The growth of hyperscale cloud campuses is part ofa larger densification of America's IT infrastructure,which features data centers in many new places.

This digital transformation will create layers ofdistributed infrastructure, from the core to theedge of the network.

In the process, the rise of hyperscale computing hascreated a new paradigm in the data center business.Hyperscale companies have become the largestcustomers for leasing wholesale and build-to-suitdata center space. As a result, these customers holdhuge sway over data center development, which hasevolved rapidly to adapt to hyperscale requirements.

In this special report, we will examine howhyperscale data centers have changed how wecompute, how data center space is built andsold, and has altered the supply chain for digitalinfrastructure. We also share Data Center Frontier'stake on how hyperscale computing will evolve.
