Re: Data centre space pricing to rise

An interesting read - I wonder how much prices will rise? I can't imagine it being too much

That's odd considering new companies are entering the space in Melbourne.

Re: Data centre space pricing to rise

Pricing we're getting in Melb hasn't moved and I have been advised that it's not going to either.

A certain Brisbane based company is setting up a small amount of racks for colocation?

Re: Data centre space pricing to rise

I'm a little confused about prices rising in Melbourne as well, as my prices have recently gone down due to renegotiation of our contracts.

But the list prices haven't changed for us either.

I do know that Primus is expanding further, and I know of another "project" to provide DC space in the CBD as well.

Re: Data centre space pricing to rise

Well, a lot of your large organisations are moving (or have moved) to much more high density kit. This makes it difficult to locate an appropriate datacenter (vs. 1-2RU machines, MAJOR heat difference).

From a DC development standpoint this significantly changes the picture since retrofitting an existing DC will give you some returns but definitely not perfect. That leads people to look at new developments which generally adds 9-18 months (as the article says).

Just my 2c,

Stu

Re: Data centre space pricing to rise

Most companies power went up by around 10% this year. Power will also then go up by about 10% next year (2009) and 20% year after (2010). The rise this year was based upon the drought and supply of water to cool power stations. The next 2 increases are due to uncertainty in the market of the governments plan for the introduction of FORCED green power / offsets.

Re: Data centre space pricing to rise
