Managed IT Infrastructure Services Industry Overview
The managed IT infrastructure services market is highly competitive due to the presence of many large and small players. The fragmented nature of the market is leading to acquisitions or a growing focus on niche segments as strategies to scale up. The continuously evolving nature of the services offered has made it imperative for all players to keep investing in new-age skills and technologies to stay relevant and ahead of the competition. This can only be achieved by hiring the right R&D talent and/or by acquiring any interesting start-ups that have the potential to disrupt the space. The major advantage that the smaller players have over the bigger ones is their ability to serve the local markets better because of the presence of their data centers locally. This forces bigger players to go for aggressive acquisitions to enhance their global footprint.
In August 2022, Dell Technology announced the launch of new infrastructure solutions, co-engineered with VMware, these new infrastructure solutions increase automation and performance for businesses adopting multi-cloud and edge strategies.
