Is there a place in this century for small data center providers?

Hi HN !

I work for a small data center services provider in a developing country. We manage 4 sites with capacity for 2k racks, all in the same country.

Lately all I can hear is how cool AWS, GCP, Azure or even Digital Ocean are, and we can't figure if we would ever provide any service other that colocation services.

Do you guys know any data center service that a small data center provider could offer (other than colocation) while not being completely overtaken by the big guys above?

If you guys have any experience that you could share It would be cool :-)
