Stumbling Blocks in the Market

A shortage of skilled labor and problems with regulatory and portability compliance are impeding the data center transformation market expansion.

In the end-user category, the cloud service providers segment had a key revenue share of 46.2% and is expected to increase at the maximum CAGR of almost 13.0% over the projection period.

By 2033, the verticals section's IT and telecommunication segment generated USD 8176.48 million in revenue, and it is anticipated that this segment would expand at a CAGR of 12.0% over the forecast period.
