DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7flccr/data_center) has announced the addition of the "Data Center Services Market in EMEA 2012-2016" report to their offering.
The analysts forecast the Data Center Services market in the EMEA Region to grow at a CAGR of 18.9 percent over the period 2012-2016. One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the need for advanced data center facilities. The Data Center Services market in the EMEA region has also been witnessing an increasing number of enterprises opting for shorter service contract durations. However, operational challenges caused by using the multiple-vendor approach method could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: Traditionally enterprises are opting to outsource their data center management to third-party vendors that provide data center services for longer periods, which span close to five years or more. However, there has been a trend of short-term contracts to enable enterprises to gain flexibility in their operations. The contracts are available at lower prices, which is beneficial for them. With many vendors providing data center services, there is increasing competition leading to lowering of costs and also a higher level of service being delivered. The number of long-term contracts is decreasing considerably with only about 20 percent of the contracts spanning above five years. The short-term contracts also allow enterprises to change vendor as and when required.
According to the report, one of the major drivers in the Data Center Services market in the EMEA region is the need for advanced data center facilities. With the growing complexity of enterprise business, enterprises have a growing need to procure data center services to meet their advanced computational requirements. To meet the growing demand for data center facilities, a number of vendors are entering the market and providing advanced data center solutions. Enterprises are able to procure the services at lower cost compared to internal provisioning of the same services, which is driving higher adoption.
