Data center and cloud market data

AI and digital growth are driving a data-center boom with major power and siting implications. This guide covers data-center and cloud market data.

Available across the EU. DataSupplier sources and delivers this data in all 27 European Union countries — including Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and Poland — and across the EEA, in the format and cadence you need.

Why data-center data matters now

Surging compute demand, especially for AI, is reshaping data-center capacity, power use and location. Data informs investment, siting, energy planning and market analysis.

The data landscape

• Capacity: facilities, IT load and pipeline.
• Power: consumption and energy sourcing.
• Location: clusters and connectivity.
• Pricing: colocation and cloud pricing.

Common use cases

Investment and siting, energy and grid planning, cloud cost and market analysis, and supply-chain and connectivity.

Sourcing considerations

Market trackers and analysts provide much data, with varying coverage and method; power and grid data adds context. Some data is commercial, and provenance matters for investment.

Delivery and governance

Most use cases use batches. Most data is non-personal. Methodology matters for capacity and power figures.

In a managed model

A managed partner can combine capacity, power, location and pricing data into a coherent market view.

Capacity, power and method

AI-driven compute demand is reshaping data-center capacity, power use and location. Market trackers and analysts vary in coverage and method, and power and grid data adds context, so methodology matters for capacity and power figures.

Uses

The data supports investment and siting, energy and grid planning, and cloud cost and market analysis; most is non-personal, with provenance important for investment.
