US Data Processing & Hosting Revenues to Advance 6.5% Per Year in Nominal Terms to 2022

Cleveland, OH, February 22, 2019 — Revenues for US data processing and hosting services are forecast to expand 6.5% per annum in nominal terms through 2022, according to Data Processing & Hosting: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Growth will be driven by increasing data volumes, security needs, and the information technology (IT) expertise needed to assist in the transition to and maintenance of cloud-based operations in which computer processing resources or data storage are based in data centers. Further growth will be restrained by ongoing competition from in-house capabilities maintained by potential customers.

Businesses represented the dominant source of revenue for US data processing and hosting service firms over the decade to 2017 and are expected to remain so through 2022. Household revenues are outpacing growth in both the business and government markets, as individuals increasingly utilize cloud storage and media streaming services. All three markets will undergo significant expansion as they continue to generate greater volumes of data and as a wider range of internet-based applications become available.
