Data Center UPS Market Overview

Data Center UPS (uninterruptible power supply) is a device specially designed to give data center equipment as backup power when the main power source is lost. Data Center UPS allows computers to stay running for a few hours during a power blackout and protects them from power surges. These devices help the user guarantee smooth functioning and safeguard against loss or damage to the data center. The main purpose of a data center UPS is to supply essential data center equipment with power backup, preventing data loss, equipment damage, and downtime. Data Center UPS offers one of the most important features is its capacity, which is based on the system's runtime that specifies how long backup power is provided with its kilovolt-amperes (kVA) or megavolt-amperes (MVA) rating. Data Center UPS can control the voltage and frequency to provide equipment with a consistent and reliable power supply. Furthermore, these devices also offer numerous product variations, such as remote monitoring and administration management features, which provide data center operators with a centralized way to monitor, manage, and control the functioning of the UPS.

Data Center UPS Market Drivers and Opportunities

Growing Power Outrages to Favor Market

Data centers across the globe are facing high amounts of power outages, which increases the demand for data center UPS among users and drives the global market during the forecast period. For instance, according to CBRE Group, in September 2022, the power supply in under-construction data centers reached 1.9 gigawatts in the US, which is an increase of 52.8% compared to the previous year's supply. These trends increase the demand for data centers UPS among users, which further drives the global data center UPS market. Moreover, according to the Uptime Institute Survey, in March 2023, 78% of data centers faced power outages in 78% during the previous three years, which resulted in lost revenue and additional expenses. The power outrage creates issues in software and networking of the data center, which is the most frequently caused by power problems. This increases the adoption of data center UPS among users for supplying power throughout the data center.

Moreover, power outrage in the data center may also hamper the business productivity from data loss. Loss of data makes it difficult for users and employees to access files and perform their essential job duties. Meanwhile, many small and large businesses are dependent on the regular operation of their business, and providing regular data security to its customers increases the demand for data centers UPS among users to reduce outages and downtime. This encourages market players to develop solutions for reducing the frequency of power outages in the data center. For instance, Amazon Web Services provides in-rack UPS systems to the data center to prevent power outages and downtime, which is driving the market during the forecast period.

The advent of IoT, Big Data, Machine Learning, and AI

The Internet of Things (IoT), big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) are a few technologies that generate massive amounts of data, require low latency processing, and demand localized computing resources. According to IoTExpress Technologies Pvt. Ltd., in APAC, IoT devices are expected to surpass 15 billion by the end of 2023, a 55% increase from 2021. Additionally, these devices are expected to generate 79.4 zettabytes (ZB) of data by 2031, according to IoTExpress Technologies Pvt. Ltd. IoT generates a huge amount of data that must be processed, stored, and analyzed in real-time. IoT devices are widely used across the region, connecting various physical objects and enabling data collection and communication. Such advent of the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence will drive the need for data centers, which in turn will increase the demand for data center UPS.
