Financial data service providers offer financial market data and related services, primarily real-time feeds, portfolio analytics, research, pricing and valuation data, to financial institutions, traders and investors. Companies aggregate data and content from stock exchange feeds, broker and dealer desks and regulatory filings to distribute financial news and business information to the investment community. Recent globalization of the world capital market has benefited the financial sector and increased trading speed. Businesses rely on real-time data more than ever to help them make informed decisions.

United States US: Total Business Enterprise R&D Personnel: Per Thousand Employment In Industry data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. The data is categorized under Global Database’s United States – Table US.OECD.MSTI: Number of Researchers and Personnel on Research and Development: OECD Member: Annual.

Definition of MSTI variables 'Value Added of Industry' and 'Industrial Employment':

R&D data are typically expressed as a percentage of GDP to allow cross-country comparisons. When compiling such indicators for the business enterprise sector, one may wish to exclude, from GDP measures, economic activities for which the Business R&D (BERD) is null or negligible by definition. By doing so, the adjusted denominator (GDP, or Value Added, excluding non-relevant industries) better correspond to the numerator (BERD) with which it is compared to.

The MSTI variable 'Value added in industry' is used to this end:

It is calculated as the total Gross Value Added (GVA) excluding 'real estate activities' (ISIC rev.4 68) where the 'imputed rent of owner-occupied dwellings', specific to the framework of the System of National Accounts, represents a significant share of total GVA and has no R&D counterpart. Moreover, the R&D performed by the community, social and personal services is mainly driven by R&D performers other than businesses.

Consequently, the following service industries are also excluded: ISIC rev.4 84 to 88 and 97 to 98. GVA data are presented at basic prices except for the People's Republic of China, Japan and New Zealand (expressed at producers' prices).In the same way, some indicators on R&D personnel in the business sector are expressed as a percentage of industrial employment. The latter corresponds to total employment excluding ISIC rev.4 68, 84 to 88 and 97 to 98.

The US data processing and hosting services industry is navigating a dynamic environment marked by rising demands and revolutionary trends. As digitalization accelerates, data centers have evolved from simple infrastructure to essential strategic assets. These hubs now power services ranging from cloud computing to advanced data analytics. In 2025, the data processing and hosting service market includes giants like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Industry revenue currently sits at $383.8 billion, growing robustly at a CAGR of 9.2% over the past five years, including a 6.2% surge in 2025 alone. Alongside leading tech firms, smaller specialized providers cater to sectors like healthcare, financial services and government agencies with precision-placed data storage solutions. Emerging trends significantly influence the evolution of the US data processing and hosting services industry. Prominent among these is edge computing, a decentralized approach that locates data centers closer to end-user devices. Along with AI and modern data centers, these innovations aim to reduce latency and enhance application performance by minimizing resource usage in data transmission, thereby promoting broader adoption of cloud computing. Despite this transformative growth, the US data processing and hosting services industry faces significant hurdles, including a skill gap, escalating energy costs and escalating cybersecurity threats. This scarcity has heightened the focus on software automation, leading many facilities to implement AI solutions. Though offshoring trends lead to lost business for many participants, this activity is limited and the industry still benefits from strong demand, leading to rising profit. The industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.4% to $431.4 billion by 2030. The future holds a mix of challenges and opportunities for the industry. Strategic investments in human capital and advanced technologies will distinguish industry leaders from laggards. Compliance with evolving data sovereignty and privacy regulations will determine local market competitiveness. Continuous innovation is expected to drive this progress, solidifying data centers' roles as pivotal components shaping the digital landscape ahead.
