Dublin, September 14, 2026 — ResearchAndMarkets.com has added a UK Data Center Market Portfolio Database to its offering, providing detailed facility-level intelligence on the United Kingdom's colocation sector. The database encompasses 246 operational data centers and 107 planned facilities, delivering comprehensive analysis of white-floor space, IT load capacity, development pipelines, infrastructure and colocation pricing.

The database covers data centers across 40 regions including Greater London, Greater Manchester, Bristol, Birmingham and strategic secondary locations such as Slough, Newport and other major centers throughout England, Scotland and Wales.

The market analysis identifies VIRTUS Data Centres, Equinix, Ark Data Centres, Digital Realty and Vantage Data Centers as the leading UK operators by capacity. London continues to dominate the UK development pipeline, with more than 2 gigawatts of upcoming capacity, led by Digital Reef, Ada Infrastructure and Tritax Big Box. Cloud service providers and technology companies are driving sustained investment in London, Manchester and Birmingham, positioning these cities as strategic hubs for future digital infrastructure expansion.

The database profiles 246 operational facilities with location details by region and city, including operator names, addresses, core-and-shell area, white-floor area, IT load capacity, rack capacity, year of operation and design standards from Tier I through Tier IV with power and cooling redundancy information. Pricing coverage includes retail colocation rates for quarter racks, half racks and full rack cabinets, along with wholesale pricing per kilowatt.

For the 107 upcoming developments, the database provides investor names, planned white-floor area, expected IT load capacity, total investment in millions of dollars, announcement year, project status and expected opening dates. The database classifies projects as opened, under construction, announced or planned, enabling users to assess the timing and maturity of the UK construction pipeline.

The resource is designed for data center REITs and institutional investors, construction contractors, infrastructure providers, colocation operators, technology companies and corporate and government organizations evaluating opportunities in the UK data center sector.
