Think of an industry where advancements in technology occur at break-neck speeds and infrastructure redevelopment is a regular occurrence.  This same industry has also seen a demand spike as a result of the pandemic. What industry comes to mind? For those providing businesses/schools with streaming services and reliable internet access during the pandemic, the answer is clear: data centers.

COVID-19 has disrupted many of the critical systems that underpin daily life, and the data center industry has been among the most heavily impacted by the crisis. While the appetite for both personal and commercial data has been steadily growing for years, the coronavirus has fueled the rise of remote working and socializing platforms, substantially accelerating demand growth.
