Colocation Insights
- Large blocks of available colocation capacity are increasingly rare, with only small pockets available in many facilities.
- Although pricing is up across the market, providers are very flexible around ramp and growth options if introduced in the initial contract.
Market Trends
- Most capacity providers are seeing significant demand from GPU Cloud service providers.
- For larger blocks of capacity, operators are very reticent to provide space to GPU Cloud service providers when they could otherwise lease to conventional CSPs.
- Incremental demand from CSPs for colocation has quieted as CSPs focus on larger power procurements.
Notable Activity
- The second phase of Qscale’s Quebec City facility was leased.
- Cologix MTL10 has been taken off the market in anticipation of a lease to a single tenant.
- eStruxture Data Centres announced a recapitalization, with Fengate becoming majority owner.
