The politics
Many countries are in competition to encourage data centre construction with tax breaks , accelerated development approval and other incentives . Not all data centre providers are willing to pass on the savings they take from these perks to their customers . Cost transparency is a reasonable request . It ’ s equally important to take the long view . Countries which have a consistent , multi-decade track record supporting IT infrastructure have generally developed skilled workforces , and secured resources and infrastructure to support data centres in the long term .
