Space is nearly gone
In the biggest markets, vacancy is close to zero and new capacity is pre-leased before it is built.
Free renewal check
Will your data center still want you in 2028?
AI is reshaping colocation. Providers are chasing megawatt deals, space is scarce, and prices are rising. If you run a few racks or a small cage, your next renewal may be the most expensive one yet. Find out where you stand before your provider tells you.
What’s changing
Four shifts that reach small tenants at renewal.
Prices keep climbing
Rents are rising year after year, and renewals are where tenants feel it first.
Power decides deals
Utilities are stretching connection timelines, so providers sell scarce power to the biggest buyers first.
AI racks are a different animal
Providers are redesigning their buildings around high-density customers, not around a few 5 kW cabinets.
Who feels it first
Small footprints in tight markets.
From one cabinet up to a few hundred kW, especially when one or more of these is true.
Renewal is close
The contract ends in the next 6 to 24 months.
No reserved headroom
Power is allocated per cabinet, with nothing reserved for growth.
An older deal
The original contract was signed before 2024, at a very different market price.
Nobody owns it
No one inside the company looks after the contract day to day.
