Shanghai hosts a concentration of onshore cloud, enterprise and regulated workloads, while Hong Kong serves as a major regional hub and a network gateway for international data traffic.
Equinix operates five data centers in Hong Kong and five, through local partners, in Shanghai. These facilities host densely interconnected tech and business ecosystems consisting of major cloud, AI, finance, media and other types of companies who do business there and need both onshore presence and regional and international connectivity.
Equinix provides a total of about 388,000 square feet (about 36,000 square meters) of colocation space across its five facilities in Hong Kong and 86,000 square feet (about 8,000 square meters) across five partner data centers in Shanghai. This capacity supports a robust interconnected ecosystem of clouds, AI companies, financial services and other industries exchanging data traffic and serving local customers.
The China colocation market size (including both mainland and Hong Kong) is estimated to have been about USD $7.6 billion (≈¥54 billion CNY) in 2024.
