How many people are using fewer websites and spending less personal or work time online? How many businesses are adjusting their business plans to scale back their online presence and their ability to conduct transactions online?

A Gartner Inc. report projects data center infrastructure spending to reach $200 billion in 2021 after a predictable pandemic-related dip in 2020. That amount represents a 6% increase. A different study from Market Research expects a compound annual growth rate of 2% between 2019 and 2025.
