AI has become a defining force in how operators design data centre infrastructure. Rising demand for data centre capacity to support AI applications, models and systems is fuelling an unprecedented surge in infrastructure expansion.
Our Onnec study of 250 senior decision makers and data centre operators has found that AI demand is transforming infrastructure strategies – but operators are struggling to keep pace, grappling with skills shortages, geopolitical turbulence and design complexity.

Politics of Power
The race for AI supremacy has seen AI-capable data centres (DC) become a major strategic resource – this has seen the topic of DC investment and construction rise up the global political agenda. DC's are a foundational piece of the growth puzzle for global economies, presenting a huge opportunity for operators. But many are being held back by an operational inertia that threatens to see them miss out on being part of the growth agenda.
The Supply chain challenge
Data centre operators are facing a perfect storm. Demand for and investment in new data centres are high. But teams responsible for building new sites or adapting existing ones face a trio of challenges; supply chain disruption, increased regulations for sustainability reporting and a persistent skills shortage. Operators need support to deliver new capacity –this is where partners have a critical role to play.

Edge Data Centre Design
Edge data centres play a key role in accelerating AI, but success hinges on overcoming power, cooling, and cabling challenges. Onnec and Vertiv have co-authored this eBook to combine their expertise in infrastructure and critical systems, and help organisations overcome the power, cooling, and cabling challenges that stand in the way of scalable, high-performance Edge data centre deployments.
