Why data centers are the backbone of digitalization

Data is the new capital – and data centers are its vaults. Without them, the digital economy would grind to a halt: cloud applications, AI models, collaboration tools, and entire production chains depend on a powerful, secure, and sustainable IT infrastructure.

Did you know?

Data center capacity in Germany will increase by around 400 MW to 2,730 MW between 2022 and 2024 alone – a growth of 16%. According to a Bitkom study, capacity will almost double to 4,850 MW by 2030. This illustrates how central data centers are to the digital future.

Development in Germany

Germany is Europe's leading data center location. The Frankfurt/Rhine-Main, Berlin/Brandenburg, and Rhineland regions in particular are driving expansion. The location benefits from a stable power supply, high data security, and excellent network connectivity—but faces rising energy prices, a shortage of skilled workers, and regulatory requirements.

Growth drivers

  • Cloud computing: 45% of data center capacity will be used for cloud applications in 2024.
  • Colocation: Around 10,000 companies in Germany rely on colocation services – and the trend is rising.
  • Artificial intelligence: AI and high-performance computing already account for 15% of computing power - this figure is expected to rise to 40% by 2030.

Energy and sustainability

Global energy demand is rising in line with growth. Data centers around the world currently consume around 20 billion kWh per year. Despite rising energy consumption, efficiency and carbon footprint are improving: two-thirds of all data centers already use 100% green electricity, and the industry's CO₂ emissions are set to fall by 30% by 2030. New technologies such as liquid cooling, waste heat utilization, and in-house power generation are helping data centers to bridge the gap between digitalization and sustainability.

Data center challenges in terms of sustainability

  • Regulation and Energy Efficiency Act (EnEfG): Requirements for PUE values and waste heat utilization are very demanding.
  • Energy availability: Rising electricity demand and grid bottlenecks are slowing down expansion in some cases.
  • Sustainability: Waste heat utilization, climate-neutral power supply, and alternative refrigerants remain complex areas of implementation.

Conclusion

Data centers are not silent suppliers, but strategic infrastructures for business, administration, and society. They secure value creation, create jobs, and form the foundation for innovation.

FAQ

A data center is the central location where IT systems, servers, storage, and networks are operated. It forms the physical and logical basis for providing digital applications, data, and services securely and reliably—whether for cloud services, virtualization, or company-owned IT.

With colocation, companies rent space or racks in an external data center but continue to operate their own hardware themselves. With the cloud, the IT infrastructure is provided as a service—without the need for proprietary hardware or maintenance. In practice, many companies rely on hybrid models to combine the advantages of both approaches.

Highly secure – because professional data centers meet the highest security standards:

  • Access control, video surveillance, and early fire detection
  • Redundant power and network connections
  • 24/7 monitoring and emergency response plans
  • GDPR-compliant data protection and location in Germany

This ensures that your IT infrastructure is optimally protected, both physically and digitally.

Sustainability has become a key factor. Modern data centers rely on:

  • Electricity from 100% renewable energies
  • Energy-efficient cooling concepts such as liquid cooling
  • Waste heat utilization for heating energy generation
  • PUE optimization (Power Usage Effectiveness) to increase efficiency

Data centers thus make an important contribution to the “twin transition” – the combination of digitalization and climate protection.

We implement customized solutions—depending on your needs and IT strategy:

  • On-premises data center (in-house operation)
  • Colocation (rental of racks or space in our data center)
  • Private cloud or hybrid cloud (flexible IT resources with maximum security)

All models are scalable, secure, and designed for the future of your IT.

At Medialine, we use virtualization and automation of data centers to provide data center solutions that meet all these requirements. Another option is the dynamic distribution of individual components, such as distribution to intelligent storage systems using tiering (data stratification) or load balancing of the required computing power across different host systems. There are different methods you can use to virtualize your work processes. We are experts in this field and will support you wherever we can. Contact us today using the contact form.
