The global data center robotics market size is estimated to reach USD 40.90 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 22.1% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growing adoption of robotic systems across data centers for automating routine tasks such as hardware installations, cable management, and server maintenance to enhance operational efficiency and minimize downtime drives the demand for market growth. These systems are integrated with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies, helping optimize data center operations, improve energy management, and predict equipment failure. Moreover, robots allow the data center operators to interact with the facility from different areas, eliminating the need for site presence. Robots' flexible and adaptable capability is necessitating the need for the market.
Furthermore, the need for collaborative robots (Cobots) is enhancing the demand for the data center robotics industry. The Cobots are integrated into data centers to perform alongside human operators, helping and guiding the operators with the tasks that need heavy lifting and precision. Robotic systems equipped with advanced tools and cameras are highly used for maintenance tasks and repair functions; for instance, detecting and repairing hardware issues in hard-to-reach areas surging the demand for the market. The focus of data centers on achieving sustainability through enhancing energy efficiency and minimizing environmental impacts of their operations is expected to form huge opportunities for the market.
The growing reliance of industries on data centers and their data-driven technologies is propelling the growth of the market. Automation and robotics are used across IT and telecom industries for handling routine maintenance tasks, managing servers, and optimizing data center operations. In addition, the BFSI sector involves massive data transactions, analytics, and customer records, which can be easily managed, processed, and secured using robots. The retail and e-commerce sector involves huge inventory management tasks, payment transactions, customer data, and online sales, which raises the need for advanced automation and robotics solutions. Similarly, other sectors such as energy & utilities, manufacturing, transportation & logistics, media & entertainment, and government services are adopting robotic technologies to enhance security and efficiency and reduce operational costs, thereby creating huge demand for the market.
