Industry Findings: Regulatory focus on operational resilience has raised the bar for rehearsal cadence and evidence trails across financial and critical infrastructure actors. A clear policy marker appeared in Jan-2025 when the Hong Kong Monetary Authority articulated operational-resilience priorities in its year-end review, calling for stronger rehearsal regimes and measurable restore outcomes for supervised entities. That emphasis drives organisations to embed auditable restore schedules, insist on low-latency staging options for drills and require providers to produce forensic-grade recovery logs; procurement teams increasingly prioritise vendors who can certify repeated, regulator-aligned restore performance over raw capacity alone.
Industry Player Insights: With many companies present in this market, some are HKT, PCCW Solutions, SUNeVision, and Equinix etc. Vendors are competing on metro-scale staging and interconnection that enable provable restores. SUNeVision commenced Phase II of its MEGA IDC campus in Mar-2025, adding significant hyperscale capacity that improves proximate vaulting for large rehearsals. Equinix announced a HK6 expansion in Aug-2024 to increase cabinet and interconnection density, which helps providers certify low-latency replication and repeatable failover sequencing. HKT and PCCW continued to update enterprise continuity offerings during 2024–2025, bundling carrier fabrics with managed-rehearsal tooling. Those developments make buyers lean toward providers that offer certified metro staging, dense interconnects and audit-grade rehearsal outputs.
