Hyperscale Data Centers
Hyperscale data centers are designed to support very large-scale IT infrastructure. According to Synergy Research Group, there are only 700 hyperscale data centers in existence—but that’s twice as many as five years ago. While this may be a small percentage compared to the number of data centers across the globe (there are more than 7 million data centers worldwide), hyperscale data centers are on the rise. Interesting fact: Amazon, Microsoft and Google account for more than half of all hyperscale data centers.
Like enterprise data centers, hyperscale data centers are owned and operated by the company they support—just on a much larger scale for cloud computing platforms and big data storage. A typical hyperscale data center has at least 5,000 servers, 500 cabinets and 10,000 square feet of floor space.
