By 2025, it’s predicted there will be over 1,000 hyperscale data centers, up 100% in only a 5-year period. With more than 300 hyperscale data centers in development today, system architects are rapidly scaling up existing resources and building new infrastructure to meet the growing needs of bandwidth-intensive, high-speed applications.
Today’s hyperscale data centers are designed for scalability and flexibility, with a typical footprint of 10,000 square feet or more. But current and future trends are testing what it means to hyperscale. 5G technology continues to drive an unquenchable thirst for on-demand digital experiences. AI is spearheading a new revolution, evolving human-to-machine communication via data-intensive multi-model systems connecting text to sound, images, video and sensor data. And businesses around the world are incorporating real-time data to drive factory automation, quantum computing and edge co-locations services.
Through multi-disciplinary engineering expertise and co-development with our customers, Molex is working hand-in-hand with system architects to meet these demands and build a new era of hyperscale.
