KEY TRENDS
Increase in 5G Deployments Fueling Edge Data Center Investments
Middle Eastern countries are working toward adopting digital transformation to attract foreign investments. 5G network deployment fuels the digital transformation, IoT, smart cities, and the fourth industrial revolution. The rapid investment in 5G technology increases the demand for high-bandwidth internet in Tier II and Tier III cities, thereby leading to the generation of a substantial amount of data, further driving data center development to process the information. 5G network services play a key role in supporting enterprise digitalization and will drive the adoption of IoT applications.
Some telecom operators in the Middle East data center market have deployed 5G network services; some are in 5G trials. Middle Eastern countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Qatar commercially deployed 5G network services. Turkey, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, and Iran are other Middle Eastern countries in 5G planning and are yet to deploy commercial services during the forecast period.
Growing Smart City Developments Will Drive the Demand for Advanced Technologies
Smart city initiatives further emphasize the importance of data in improving communication among cities, citizens, automobiles, electronics, and devices. A well-designed smart city allows for data-driven decision-making, newer economic opportunities, and improved infrastructure.
In the Middle East, several companies and governments have taken the initiative to invest in developing smart cities. Middle Eastern countries are driving the adoption of advanced technologies, 5G services, IoT, big data solutions, and digital platforms. In addition, the number of interconnected devices in the region is increasing significantly, with growth in the deployment of subsea and inland cables.
