Data Center Interconnect Market Outlook:
Data Center Interconnect Market size was valued at USD 13.17 billion in 2025 and is likely to cross USD 41.64 billion by 2035, expanding at more than 12.2% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of data center interconnect is assessed at USD 14.62 billion.
The shift towards cloud solutions is a catalyst for the expansion of the market, requiring strong, fast, scalable, and secure connections to meet increasing demands from businesses. For instance, the cloud applications industry is estimated to be worth USD 168.6 billion in 2025. Because of the growing number of applications that are stored, processed, or operated in clouds, a need for high-speed and reliable data transfer from one data center to another has become increasingly relevant. The increasing need for cloud services is supported by data center interconnect solutions that facilitate efficient and secure data transmission.
Furthermore, to provide distributed processing and analysis of data at the network edge, it is necessary to create interconnected edge data centers as a result of the increasing deployment of edge computing. The DCI solution enables seamless integration of edge resources with centralized data centers and cloud environments by extending connectivity to remote points. This interconnected infrastructure supports latency-sensitive applications and increases the overall performance of edge computing ecosystems.
