Artificial Intelligence
A Dell’Oro Group analysis projects global data‑centre capital expenditure to surpass $3 trillion by 2030, with the surge primarily attributed to artificial‑intelligence infrastructure. AI accelerators are expected to represent roughly one‑third of total spend, while hyperscalers, sovereign AI programmes and specialised cloud providers drive the bulk of investment. The report notes that power availability will become a critical constraint, prompting developers to favour renewable‑rich locations, and that the purchasing power of the four largest US cloud providers could account for about half of global capex.

IntelMarketResearch estimates the AI data‑pipeline market was valued at $2.10 billion in 2025 and forecasts growth to $2.30 billion in 2026, reaching $4.80 billion by 2034, a compound annual growth rate of 9.7 per cent. The expansion is linked to accelerated adoption of generative‑AI workloads, increased cloud‑native services, and the rise of MLOps platforms that automate pipeline tasks. Enterprises across finance, healthcare, manufacturing and retail are allocating substantial budgets to ingest, cleanse and deliver data for model training and inference, with generative‑AI applications demanding low‑latency processing of terabytes daily.
