The development of the Kenyan data center market will be largely influenced by factors such as increasing demand from SMEs and increasing internet penetration rates in the country.
Robust growth of data centers: More than half of African online shoppers came from Nigeria, South Africa, and Kenya. Over the past few years, e-commerce in Kenya has grown dramatically, especially among small and medium-sized firms, which has aided in the expansion of data centers in the area. Additionally, the industry expanded as a result of the increased investment in Kenyan data center companies. The Kenyan data center market experienced rapid expansion as a result of rising digitalization, cloud-based technologies, big data analytics, and the use of smart devices.
Increase in Cloud-Based Services and Shift Towards CDN: Businesses of all sizes are increasingly adopting cloud-based services as the standard. While business is moving quickly to the cloud, a hybrid solution that combines cloud, colocation, and on-premises solutions to give cost-effective IT solutions is likely to have an impact. The predicted move to 4K and 8K content, together with shifts in creative media material toward Content Delivery Networks (CDN), such as YouTube, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and gaming solutions, greatly support increased data consumption.
Digital Transformation with Critical Connectivity Across East Africa: Kenya is undergoing a digital transition, and Nairobi, Africa's "Silicon Savannah," is teeming with technopreneurs and international corporations looking to profit from the country's and the region's technological and digital change. The most connected data center facility in East Africa is East Africa Data Centre, which is situated in Nairobi's Sameer Industrial Park. Due to its accessibility to carrier networks throughout the area, it is referred to as the "ideal hosting location".
Lack of focus from foreign investors: A large amount of electricity is required for data centers. Government support is necessary to meet Africa's needs for data center infrastructure in terms of water, land, and power. However, the Eskom situation is not being effectively managed by African countries. In addition, one of the main problems in Kenya's data center business is a lack of investment. Kenya is the least connected country in the world, which causes foreign investors to give it little attention.
