• Hyperscale operators in Taiwan are developing their own data centers and collocating their workloads with local colocation operators. For instance, Microsoft is building its own data center in the country, which is expected to be operational by 2022. 
• The 42U rack cabinets are likely to dominate the Taiwan market in the forecast period. 45U-47U rack cabinets will also witness increased adoption.
• The availability of skilled professionals at a low cost is a major driver for the rise of the ICT industry in Taiwan. The availability of a strong and smart supply chain also fuels the growth of the Taiwan data center market.
• In Taiwan, Taipei city and New Taipei city are favorable locations for developing data center facilities, as they are the most connected locations and the economic hubs in Taiwan. The Taipei data center market hosts over 70% of the third-party data centers, most developed according to Tier III requirements.

TAIWAN DATA CENTER MARKET VENDOR LANDSCAPE

Some key IT infrastructure providers are Atos, Broadcom, Cisco Systems, Dell Technologies, Extreme Networks, Fujitsu, etc. In Taiwan, cloud services have gained importance after COVID-19. Modular design and construction of data centers are increasingly adopted in Taiwan to increase scalability and reduce construction costs for operators.

For instance, Chunghwa Telecom, one of the Taiwanese data center providers, has used modular design in its data center in Taipei to decrease the construction cost. In December 2020, Trend Micro, a major player in cybersecurity, used Microsoft Azure to develop cloud-based cybersecurity solutions. 5G network connectivity is also increasingly gaining importance, and vendors have a great opportunity in this trend. In June 2020, Chunghwa Telecom was the first telecom operator to receive a license from the National Communications Commission (NCC) to deploy 5G commercial services. It is going to have 10,000 base stations across Taiwan by 2021 end.
