KVM Switch Market Analysis
KVM Switch Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period 2021 to 2026. Increasing demand for data storage devices and drivers by enterprises are driving the demand for KVM switches.
- The factors such as advancement in edge computing, cloud computing, government regulations , high data center operational cost, and progress in smart computing devices are anticipated to significantly influence the growth of the KVM switch market. According to Cisco Systems, the volume of big data in data center storage worldwide is expected to reach 403 exabytes by 2021, of which a considerable share will be accounted for by the US.
- Several companies are investing in the expansion of their operations to strengthen their global footprint and enhance their market presence. For instance, in January 2020, Stack Infrastructure, a wholesale data center colocation provider, raised over USD 1 billion to build a massive 125 acre, four million-square-foot campus in Northern Virginia, US. The new data center campus is expected to offer more than 250 megawatts of critical capacity with flexible build-to-suit facilities capable of serving large data center users.
- Enterprises having an extensive portfolio and high susceptibility to cyber-attacks such as banking, telecom, and IT are storing data on the cloud and providing enhanced security features to protect critical information from intrusions. KVM switches help users to control the data that is stored in multiple systems and also prooffersy access. The growing demand for cloud storage will significantly contribute to the growth of the KVM switch market.
- Over a some timehe application of KVM switches has extended from data centers to non-data center applications such as surveillance, kiosk management, digital media, and industrial computer control. In surveillance applications, the KVM switch is used as a digital interface to consolidate non-IP surveillance equipment such as CCTV and help to access them remotely.
- COVID-19 pandemic has forced many companies in the KVM Switch market to halt their business operations in tomply with the new government rulings. While overall demand for digital services is expected to rise rapidly, the impact of lockdowns and layoffs means that many businesses will experience a crunch, cutting costs, and potentially declaring bankruptcy. More prominentta center operators, especially those with hyperscale contracts, will be able to weather this, but the smaller firms operating in one or a few cities with lots of local customers may not, and this could affect the KVM switch market until businesses become normal.
KVM Switch Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the KVM Switch Market according to our research experts:
Increasing Number of Data Centers to Drive the Market Growth
- The principal trend that is supporting data center is the cloud and its connection to billions of connected devices such as autonomous vehicles, PCs, virtual reality systems, and others. For instance, 80% of all enterprise (and mission-critical) workloads will move to the cloud (Oracle's Cloud Prediction, 2019). Even as the absolute number of files stored in the cloud has grown rapidly, the percentage of files that contain sensitive data has also grown, today standing at 21% with an increase of 17% over the past two years.
- Globally, with the increasing demand for data, the need for data centers is rising, as major cloud vendors are focusing on commissioning numerous data center projects, with significant investments. For instance, Amazon, a global leader in terms of cloud management, is increasingly investing in building data centers across the world, especially in the emerging markets, such as Asia-Pacific. The company plans to invest USD 1.5 billion for building two data centers in India, mainly for its AWS wing.
- The increasing demand for the cloud and data traffic moving from and within the data centers are expected to bolster the demand for KVM switch, over the forecast period. According to Cisco Systems, the cloud data center IP traffic is expected to reach 19,509 exabytes per year by 2021, as compared to 1,046 exabytes per year of traditional data center traffic.
North America Expected to have Significant Market Share
- The United States is the largest market in the region and currently has the highest number of data centers across the globe and is witnessing robust growth in terms of volume of big data and traffic owing to the increase in the number of data centers.
- The expansion of mobile broadband, growth in cloud computing, and Big Data analytics are driving the demand for KVM switch in the region. Moreover, the declining prices of servers have increased the adoption of cloud computing businesses across North America, which is expected to fuel the demand for switches over the forecast period.
- Multinational companies in the region, such as Facebook, Microsoft, Apple, and Google, etc., are investing in green digital infrastructures to power through renewable sources. For instance, in 2019, Google invested over USD 13 billion in data centers and offices in the United States. Such developments in the market are expected to boost the demand for KVM switches over the forecast period.
