Chile Data Center Market Trends

By 2029, these facilities are anticipated to hold a market share of 1.4% with little expansion, owing to the lengthy and irregular outages. Due to the rising demand for data processing, storing, and analysis, the majority of customers will eventually transition to tier 3 and 4 facilities, which hold 37.9% and 60.7% of the market share, respectively.

  • The e-commerce and BFSI sectors of the country are growing. Recently, mobile banking usage has increased in Chile. For instance, cards were used to make about 55% of internet purchases in Chile. A total of 14% and 13% of online purchases are made via digital wallets and bank transfers, respectively. Tier 4 data centers are anticipated to record dramatic growth in the coming years as more companies are offering cloud-based services and building colocation spaces with the most advanced technology. With the rising preference for the cloud, growing data consumption, and the development of more than half a billion digital objects, Chile’s data center infrastructure is expanding tremendously.
