Germany Data Center Market Overview
Germany has become a key player in Europe's data center sector, attracting significant investments from global operators and hyperscale providers due to its strong digital infrastructure, growing demand for cloud services, and central location within Europe. The German government supports this growth through initiatives like the Digital Strategy 2025 and offers incentives to enhance broadband connectivity. The country's strict data protection laws, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), have further spurred investments in local data centers.
Major cloud providers, including AWS, Microsoft, and Google, are significantly investing in Germany. AWS, for instance, announced plans to invest $9.44 billion in its Frankfurt cloud region by 2026, while also establishing a Sovereign Cloud region in Brandenburg to address data sovereignty concerns. Despite challenges like power scarcity, Germany remains a key data center hub, accounting for 45% of the FLAP-D data center market's power capacity.
Germany's cybersecurity strategy focuses on enhancing resilience and securing critical infrastructure. Frankfurt stands out as a key connectivity hub, although rising power and land concerns, along with stricter regulations, may affect its long-term dominance. The country is also expanding its undersea cable network, including the upcoming IOEMA submarine cable, which will link Germany to several other European countries. Colocation operators, such as Digital Realty, Equinix, and NTT DATA, are the primary investors in Germany's data center facilities.

Elon Musk claims antitrust violation in App Store rankings
AUSTIN, Texas: Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, owner of SpaceX, Tesla, and the social media platform X, says he plans to sue Apple over its refusal to feature X and his artificial intelligence chatbot app Grok in the App Store's "Must Have" recommendations. In a late-night post on August 11, Musk publicly challenged Apple's decision, writing on X: "Hey @Apple App Store, why do you refuse to put either X or Grok in your 'Must Have' section when X is the #1 news app in the world and Grok is #5 among all apps? Are you playing politics? What gives? Inquiring minds want to know." Musk's AI startup, xAI, develops Grok. He alleged that Apple's practices were unfairly limiting competition in the AI space. "Apple is behaving in a manner that makes it impossible for any AI company besides OpenAI to reach #1 in the App Store, which is an unequivocal antitrust violation. xAI will take immediate legal action," he wrote, without providing further details about the planned lawsuit. Apple has not responded to Musk's accusations. The tech giant has faced increasing scrutiny over its App Store policies and alleged antitrust violations. In recent years, both U.S. and European regulators have taken action against the company. In the United States, a federal judge recently ruled that Apple violated an injunction stemming from an antitrust case brought by Fortnite developer Epic Games. In Europe, the 27-nation European Union fined Apple 500 million euros in April for breaking competition rules by preventing app developers from directing users to cheaper options outside the App Store. Just last year, the EU also imposed a nearly US$2 billion fine, ruling that Apple unfairly favored its own music streaming service by blocking rivals such as Spotify from informing users about lower-cost subscription options available outside iPhone apps. As of early August 12, the App Store's top five apps were TikTok, Tinder, Duolingo, YouTube, and Bumble. OpenAI's ChatGPT ranked seventh. Despite Musk's claims that X is the world's top news app and Grok ranks fifth among all apps, neither is included in Apple's "Must Have" section—a curated list the company promotes to iOS users.

The new system, which has been delayed for years, will go into effect starting Oct. 12 and gradually be introduced. The full implementation is expected to be completed by April 2026. Article content Article content Article content According to the European Union, the EES is an 'automated IT system for registering non-EU nationals travelling for a short stay, each time they cross the external borders of … (participating) European countries using the system.' The policy, aimed at modernizing borders, will record a facial image and fingerprints, data listed in travellers' documents and when travellers enter and exit a country.
