Micro Data Center Market Overview

A micro data center (MDC) is a compact, modular data center with all the power, cooling, networking, compute, storage, and other infrastructure needed for a specific task.
Applications like content distribution, 5G, and the Internet of Things (IoT) have increased demand for low-latency access to data processing and storage in recent years. The use cases for traditional centralized data centers, such as those utilized by Microsoft Azure and AWS (Amazon Web Services), weren't intentional. Although these massive data centers facilitate cloud computing and offer economies of scale, they are not able to affordably move data processing near enough to end users for certain distributed workload use cases. Micro data centers come in a variety of sizes, from a single 19-inch rack to a 40-foot shipping container. They are tiny enough, that micro data centers can be installed in places where a standard data center would not be feasible. This enables businesses to find an affordable solution to the problem of low-latency data processing and storage.

The global micro data center market size was valued at USD 5.8 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 28.5 billion by 2032, registering a CAGR of 19.5% during the forecast period (2024-2032).
