QUOTE Megaport Ltd (ASX: MP1) Motley Fool
Megaport was founded by Bevan Slattery, who previously had founded data centre operator NEXTDC Ltd (ASX: NXT) and connectivity services provider Superloop Ltd (ASX: SLC). It is a provider of elastic interconnection services across data centres globally. This service allows its customers to increase and decrease their available bandwidth in response to their own demand requirements instead of being tied to fixed service levels on long-term and expensive contracts. Earlier this month Megaport released its global update which revealed that in the second quarter of FY 2019 the company increased its reported revenue by 21% to $8.3 million and monthly recurring revenue by 14% quarter on quarter. With the cloud computing boom continuing to accelerate, I believe Megaport well-positioned to continue this above average growth for some time to come. -------------------- "Every long-term security is nothing more than a claim on some expected future stream of cash that will be delivered into the hands of investors over time.

Megaport has woken from a slumber; not sure why but enjoying the lift, for what is a competitive bread-and-butter biz in a growth sector.
There's been some bidding tension for another data centre provider, and the whole sector is widely dispersed with no real dominant player;a bunch of international outfits are looking to acquire locals. Price is always the issue. -------------------- "Every long-term security is nothing more than a claim on some expected future stream of cash that will be delivered into the hands of investors over time.

When Megaport MP1 reported in August, the market was underwhelmed, and it was sold off quickly to sub-$2.
SP bounced along at those lows for a while, but has been on a run in the last week, up more than 20% to above $2.50. There haven't been any announcements, nor Change in Significant Shareholder notices. There is some action elsewhere in data centres, with Next DC fending off a property group, and recently the privately held Metronode putting up its 10 centres for sale. The attention may have something to do with a recognition of continued and likely accelerating growth in data and the way it's stored QUOTE Interested parties have been presented with a plethora of facts around data centres in the Asia Pacific including growth in outsourcing of data centres - from 12 per cent in 2013 to 39 per cent in 2018 - and 27 per cent growth in data centre workloads from 2015 to 2020
