IS HYPERSCALE DEAD? NEW END USER PROFILES
For well over a decade, the sector has been defined by hyperscale. A very short list of companies has consumed a significant amount of hyperscale colocation capacity and made the business a high stakes game. But with the rise of AI, a new tier of startups and neocloud providers has widened the addressable market and this is a good thing. What does this demand look like and where is it coming from? How should operators pivot in order to be able to serve a rapidly shifting demand profile? What kind of new strategy and tactics should they employ?

HYPERSCALE, AI TRENDS IN APAC: MARKET UPDATE
The APAC region continues to expand and Chinese hyperscale growth has rebounded, boosting overall demand for data centre colocation. Meanwhile, AI is set to land in the region and where and how that happens will determine the fate of a number of different markets. What is the state of the AI build-out in APAC and who will be the winners and losers? What kind of barriers and potential roadblcoks are on the horizon? Against the backdrop of SR's independent research, we answer these questions and more, while sharing newly published marketshare data on markets such as Mumbai, Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong and others.
