Market Overview
In 2024, the Middle East and Africa (MEA) data center market saw significant investments, driven by key players such as Khazna Data Centers, Africa Data Centres, Gulf Data Hub, Equinix, and Digital Realty, among others. Hyperscalers like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google, and Microsoft are also expanding their presence in the region, with Microsoft completing a new data center in Saudi Arabia in December 2024.
The increasing adoption of AI by enterprises is fueling the demand for data processing, prompting operators to invest in AI-ready data centers. For example, iXAfrica Data Centre launched a new hyperscale facility designed with on-chip cooling solutions to support AI deployments.
In terms of data center destinations, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Israel are key hubs in the Middle East, while South Africa remains a leading destination in Africa. Emerging data center markets in the MEA region include Kenya, Nigeria, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Egypt, reflecting the growing demand for data infrastructure across the region.
5G Deployment and Its Impact on Data Center Growth in MEA
In 2024, the MEA region witnessed a rapid expansion of 5G networks, driving significant growth in edge data center investments. Sub-Saharan Africa led globally with 18 new 5G launches across 13 countries, accounting for 39% of global deployments. Countries like the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Ghana, Kenya, and Nigeria are advancing 5G infrastructure through strategic partnerships with major tech firms like Ericsson, Huawei, and Nokia. This growth supports applications such as IoT, telemedicine, and smart agriculture, enhancing digital inclusion and economic development. The convergence of 5G and edge computing is transforming the region into a hub for next-generation digital connectivity.
Smart City Growth to Accelerate Data Center Demand in MEA
The development of smart cities across the Middle East and Africa (MEA) is significantly driving demand for advanced technologies and data center infrastructure. The region's strategic position for undersea cable landings enhances global connectivity, supporting large-scale smart city projects. As cities like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, and Cairo prioritize digital infrastructure, the surge in data generation fuels the need for edge data centers and High-Performance Computing (HPC). Ranked among the top 20 in the IMD Smart City Index 2024, Abu Dhabi and Dubai exemplify MEA's tech-forward vision. Initiatives like Digital Dubai's AI platform further boost investment opportunities in the data center market.
UAE and Saudi Arabia Lead Data Center Growth in the Middle East
The UAE remains a well-established hub for data center development in the Middle East, with major investments in 2024 from operators like Equinix, Gulf Data Hub, and Khazna Data Centers, primarily in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. In a notable development, the Sharjah Communication Technology Authority (SCTA) signed an MoU with BEEAH and Khazna to establish new data centers in Sharjah, enhancing the region's digital infrastructure. Saudi Arabia, the region's second-largest data center market, is also experiencing rapid growth, driven by its cloud-first strategy. In 2024, Oracle launched a second cloud region in Riyadh, while AWS announced a $5.3 billion investment to establish a new cloud region with three availability zones by 2026.
Expanding Operator Landscape Boosts Growth in MEA Data Center Market
The Middle East and Africa (MEA) data center market hosts a diverse mix of global and local operators, including key players such as Khazna Data Centers, Gulf Data Hub, Equinix, Digital Realty, center3 (stc), and Africa Data Centres. The market is also attracting new entrants like Agility, Pure Data Centres, Qareeb Data Centres, and Desert Dragon Data Centers, reflecting its growing appeal. Additionally, global cloud giants such as AWS, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Alibaba Cloud are expanding their presence by developing dedicated cloud regions across MEA to meet rising demand for cloud services and digital infrastructure.
