MARKET INSIGHTS

The Saudi Arabia data center market size will witness investments of USD 2.08 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 7.98% from 2022-2028. Saudi Arabia is among the second top data center market in the Middle East region. Some data center operators operating in the country include Saudi Telecom Company(stc), Mobily, NourNet, GO Telecom (Etihad Atheeb Telecom Company), Gulf Data Hub, and others. The high internet and social media penetration across the country driven by COVID-19, deployment of 5G services, better and improved inland connectivity, and others make the Saudi Arabia data center market attractive to investors.

Introducing the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) in the country will protect the citizens' confidentiality and personal data, boosting the market. Further, developing Special Economic Zones (SEZs), Free Trade Zones (FTZs), and smart city investments will also boost the Saudi Arabia data center market. The National Renewable Energy Program (NREP) under Vision 2030 and the King Salman Renewable Energy Initiative have been initiated to maximize renewable energy and expect to generate over 50% of the energy from renewable energy by 2030.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

  • Saudi Arabia has over 20 operational colocation data centers. Riyadh is the primary location for investment in the Saudi Arabia data center market, followed by Jeddah, Dammam, and other cities. Neom is the new smart city that will attract new investments over the forecast period.
  • Significant deployment and adoption of 5G services and the development of smart cities in Saudi Arabia will fuel data traffic and further grow the demand for more data centers in the country. For instance, Amazon Web Services announced the availability of AWS Outposts. This fully managed service offers AWS services and AWS infrastructure for a full virtual experience of a data center colocation space.
  • The country is also witnessing improvement in submarine and inland connectivity. For instance, 2Africa, the longest subsea cable, will be deployed to connect Saudi Arabia with other countries such as India, the UAE, Spain, the UK, Oman, and others.
  • Gulf Data Hub is among the top colocation operator in the country that is currently developing a new data center facility in Dammam and has further planned several facilities across Riyadh, Jeddah, and Dammam.
  • Adopting a cloud-first strategy by the government and public sectors is likely to boost cloud adoption and market in the country. Global cloud companies such as Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Alibaba Cloud have entered the Saudi Arabia data center market.
