Middle East, Türkiye, and Africa (META) is experiencing a significant increase in datacenter investments due to, among others, cloud provider's decentralization strategies, businesses and governments prioritizing digital-first approaches, and growing infrastructure investments fueled by AI advances. Government initiatives to boost the digital economy and diversify economic contributions are also contributing to this investment trend.
The objective of the Middle East, Türkiye and Africa Datacenter Trends: Sustainable Datacenter Builds and CO2 Emissions service is to provide various datacenter stakeholders — including providers, investors, strategists, vendors, government, and regulatory authorities — with quantitative insights into current and future datacenter market deployments in the Middle East, Türkiye, and Africa. The service centers on a new datacenter deployment model developed internally to derive and forecast datacenter capacities, energy consumption, and investment trends across the region.
The service offers detailed information on various datacenter types, including key metrics such as space usage, power capacity, and rack quantities, as well as sustainability measures. This information helps analyze market trends and enables informed decision-making based on solid data and sustainable practices. Additionally, the service provides insights into enterprise preferences and the supply-side view of datacenter infrastructure in major META countries.
