"AI is driving the world's datacentre market towards increased concentration in favour of the hyperscalers. Cloud and consumer-oriented digital services have been driving changes in datacentre deployment patterns for many years now, but over the last three years, AI technology has accelerated those changes."
"Hyperscaler-operated datacentres are expected to account for 1,360 of total sites and 48% of worldwide capacity by the fourth quarter of 2025, with 60% of that capacity built by hyperscalers."
"The share of colocation is expected to drop, although it is still increasing at double-digit rates. Enterprises' on-premise datacentre capacity is expected to drop to 19% of the total by 2031."
Hyperscalers are expected to account for 67% of global datacentre capacity by 2031, significantly increasing from 14 times their 2018 capacity. AI is a major driver of this growth, with hyperscaler capacity anticipated to double in three years. By late 2025, hyperscalers will operate 1,360 sites, representing 48% of global capacity. Non-hyperscale colocation currently holds 20%, while enterprise datacentres account for 32%. The share of enterprise capacity is projected to decline to 19% by 2031, influenced by AI hardware deployment.
