UAE Data Centre Market to Reach AED 9.7 Billion by 2029

Date:

The UAE’s data center market is on a remarkable growth trajectory, with projections showing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 10% over the next five years. By 2029, this dynamic sector is expected to reach an impressive valuation of AED 9.7 billion, according to a recent industry report by Blackridge, a leading global market research and consulting organization.

Expanding Digital Economy Fuels Growth

The UAE government’s strategic initiatives to strengthen its digital economy have been instrumental in driving this growth. These policies have attracted global technology giants, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, Microsoft, and Alibaba, to expand their presence in the UAE. The result? A significant increase in data center capacity and infrastructure throughout the country.

Currently, the UAE is home to 38 state-of-the-art data center facilities, primarily concentrated in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Notable companies such as Equinix Inc., Khazna Data Center, and Moro Hub are at the forefront of this booming industry, capitalizing on the growing demand for digital solutions and services.

Increased Demand for Specialised Services

The surge in data centers has spurred business opportunities for specialized companies serving this sector. One such example is Dubai-based Hitches & Glitches (H&G), a technology-driven maintenance and cleaning specialist. H&G has witnessed a notable uptick in demand for its services tailored to the specific needs of data centers.

“Data center equipment is highly sensitive, and optimal performance is critical to their success. However, the cleaning process is extremely sophisticated and technical,” explained Zohaib Azhar, Director of Operations at Hitches & Glitches.

Proper maintenance ensures the reliability, efficiency, and safety of these high-value assets, underscoring the critical role specialized cleaning services play in supporting the data center industry.

Future Outlook

The UAE’s continued focus on digital transformation, coupled with the growing presence of international tech companies, positions the country as a hub for advanced data center solutions. As infrastructure expands, so does the demand for supporting industries, paving the way for sustained economic growth in this sector.
