REPLAY | Webinar: Uptime Institute Global Data Center Survey Results 2024

The data center industry's largest and most influential survey results are in! Join us as we discuss the 14th Annual Uptime Global Data Center Survey 2024 which reveals an industry that is expanding, and is also planning for major technological, economic and operational changes. 

Demand for digital services continues to grow — not just in volume but in compute intensity, challenging the power and cooling capabilities of much of the existing infrastructure. To meet rising demand, data center operators and their IT clients are investing and innovating more in their IT and facilities, as well as employing external services. The effectiveness of these investments will shape the industry in the years ahead. Hear about these findings and more, presented by our expert Uptime team.
