Network & Connectivity Ecosystem
Manila's connectivity landscape is rapidly maturing, driven by new subsea cable landings and hyperscale cloud provider investment.
Carrier Density & Carrier Neutrality: The market features over 10 providers, including a mix of regional and local carriers, as of September 2025. Carrier-neutral facilities provide the primary access points for interconnection and offer diverse network options.
Direct Cloud On-Ramps: With over 1 cloud on-ramp, the ecosystem enables direct, private access to 1 cloud region as of September 2025. This includes a dedicated on-ramp for AWS, allowing businesses to build secure, high-performance hybrid architectures.
Internet Exchange Points (IXPs): Peering is primarily handled through private interconnection within major data centers. The presence of local IXPs like PHOPENIX facilitates efficient traffic exchange between networks, reducing latency for domestic users.
Bare Metal: Bare metal compute is available in Manila, providing dedicated server solutions for performance-sensitive applications. Providers like Hivelocity offer deployment options in the region.
Power Analysis
Average Cost Of Power: Industrial power costs in Manila are approximately US$0.11/kWh as of December 2024. This rate is competitive for the region but highlights the need for efficient hardware and cooling designs to manage operational expenses.
Power Grid Reliability: The power grid supporting Manila's primary data center zones is generally stable, with modern facilities offering N+1 or 2N redundancy and multi-substation support. Operators invest heavily in on-site generation and battery backup to ensure uptime SLAs are met.
Market Access, Business & Tax Climate
Proximity To Key Business Districts: Data centers are strategically located to serve Manila's major commercial hubs, including Makati City and Bonifacio Global City (BGC). This proximity provides low-latency connectivity for financial services, BPOs, and corporate headquarters.
Regional Market Reach: Manila is the undisputed digital hub for the Philippines. Deploying infrastructure here provides the fastest and most reliable access to the country's entire population across its many islands.
Tax Advantage For Data Centers: The Philippines does not offer specific tax incentives for data center investment or operations. The business environment is structured around standard corporate tax laws, placing the focus on operational excellence rather than fiscal benefits.
Natural Disaster Risk
Manila has a high overall disaster risk profile, scoring 5.4 out of 10 according to the INFORM Risk Index as of September 2025. The high rating is driven by the country's geographic location within the Pacific Ring of Fire and typhoon belt.
Key natural hazards include:
- Earthquake: 9.7/10
- Tsunami: 9.4/10
- Tropical Cyclone: 9.2/10
- Coastal Flood: 8.9/10
- River Flood: 6.7/10
Selecting modern, purpose-built data centers engineered to withstand seismic activity and flooding is critical for ensuring operational resiliency in this market.
