Vertiv, formerly Emerson Network Power, has released the results of an online survey of 226 U.S. enterprise data center managers regarding their use of colocation services and their future needs for services. Respondents indicated that future IT application deployments will become more diverse and complex and that they seek colocation providers that can quickly scale capacity when needed, provide edge connectivity and offer price transparency.
For this survey, the term "colocation" included multi-tenant data centers, off-premise computing, managed hosting and cloud hosting data centers. The survey addressed organizations that ranged in size from more than $1 billion to under $10 million in industries such as financial services, education, manufacturing, healthcare, government, professional services and telecommunications.
Sixty-five percent of respondents said that their organizations are using colocation data centers or will use them within the next 12 months. Among current users, most are recent adopters, with 64 percent indicating that have used colos five years or less.
The survey’s key findings include:
“The colocation market is going through substantial change, as providers seek ways to cost-effectively meet customer needs that are growing in complexity and scale,” says Amy Johnson, Americas vice president of marketing and strategy for Vertiv. “Vertiv believes that innovations in data center power, cooling and infrastructure management can help colocation providers operate at peak performance by reducing operational costs, eliminating stranded power and cooling capacity, support scalability and provide greater insight into data center conditions and operations. This in turn can help colocation providers improve customer SLAs so they can better serve their customers.”
