Abstract :
The data centres sector remains a good place to be, despite the economic contraction that is crimping other aspects of IT expenditure. Growth continues among carrier-neutral co-location operators in the European market, with three of the largest providers - Equinix, Interxion, and TeleCity - all intending to increase technical data centre footprints through new developments, as well as continuing to build-out existing facilities ready for occupation. Smaller players are also reporting unflagging demand, and big self-provisioning players like Google are still augmenting their global data centre assets.
