At this year’s Datacloud Global Congress 2025, DC Byte had the privilege of joining Capacity TV’s deputy editor Saf Malik for an insightful conversation on the ever-accelerating growth of the global data centre industry. Our CEO Bernard Johnson and Sales Director, Scott Roots, sat down to unpack not just the scale of this expansion—but how DC Byte is helping the industry make sense of it.
Powering Smarter Decisions with Trusted Intelligence
In a market moving at unprecedented speed, access to accurate, granular, and global data has never been more critical. During the interview, Bernard and Scott outlined how DC Byte delivers deep, trusted market intelligence to stakeholders across the digital infrastructure ecosystem from developers and operators to investors and consultants.
Whether it’s understanding hyperscale expansion in emerging regions, benchmarking against competitors, or evaluating the feasibility of new builds, DC Byte’s insights enable high value decision-making at every level.
Tackling Industry Headwinds
Of course, growth doesn’t come without challenges. The discussion also explored key hurdles facing the sector today, such as power constraints, land availability, and sustainability pressures. As markets become increasingly saturated and regulations tighten, stakeholders are demanding more detailed, region specific data to guide their strategies. This is where DC Byte continues to deliver value.
A Platform Built for Precision
Scott shared updates on the evolution of the DC Byte analytics platform, designed to bring transparency and structure to one of the world’s fastest evolving industries. From macro trends across EMEA, APAC, and the Americas to micro level detail on specific campuses and operators, the platform enables users to drill down with confidence.
The Future of Market Intelligence
As Bernard emphasised, the role of real-time, dynamic intelligence is only becoming more essential. With new markets emerging from sub-Saharan Africa to secondary cities in Eastern Europe, the ability to understand local conditions with global context is key.
At DC Byte, we’re proud to be shaping that future. As the digital infrastructure landscape grows more complex, our mission remains clear: to equip the industry with the clarity it needs to thrive.
