Italy is a prominent and emerging data center market in Western Europe. There is a high demand for cloud services from Italian enterprises. In December 2021, the country’s Government allocated around $950 million to develop a national cloud to migrate its workloads carrying sensitive data to the cloud, which will be completed by the end of 2025. Investments in Italy data centers will be driven by submarine cable deployment, cloud migration, 5G deployment, and other digitalization initiatives. The advent of new entrants will provide significant data center investments in the upcoming years.   

The increasing demand for cloud services from huge industries has made it a hub for cloud service providers such as Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Google. In June 2022, Google partnered with TIM, an Italian telco, and opened a cloud region in Milan. Further, the Italy data center market has a presence of local and global colocation and telecom operators such as Aruba, Equinix, Irideos, Telecom Italia, and SUPERNAP Italia, among others. The growing digitalization and introduction of new submarine cables expand the country’s data center footprint. There are 24 submarine cables and nine upcoming ones, increasing the country’s digital connectivity.
