Market Overview:
The global Ethernet SAN switch market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for storage capacity and rising need for data center consolidation. Ethernet SAN switches are used in data centers for connecting servers and storage devices, and provide high-bandwidth connectivity between them. They offer several advantages over traditional Fibre Channel switches, such as lower cost of ownership, easier management, and higher scalability. The global Ethernet SAN switch market is segmented on the basis of type into unmanaged switches, managed switches, smart Switches,,and enterprise managed Switches. The unmanaged switch segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period owing to its low cost and easy installation.
Product Definition:
An Ethernet SAN switch is a networking device that connects multiple servers to one or more storage devices, allowing them to share data. The importance of an Ethernet SAN switch is that it can provide high performance and reliability for shared storage in a data center.
Unmanaged Switches:
Unmanaged switches are a group of network devices that operate without any user-defined configuration and provide switching functionality for connecting multiple networks. These switches are used in Ethernet storage area networks (Ethernet-based SANs) to connect the local area network (LAN) segments or individual switch systems to Fibre Channel or iSCSI targets. Unmanaged switches do not require vendor-specific configurations, thus making them a preferred choice among new businesses that lack experienced IT staff.
Managed Switches:
Managed switches are a group of devices that act as a single unit and can be used to connect different network segments. It is also known as multivendor Ethernet switch which is capable of handling multiple vendor protocols such as IP, MPLS, frame relay and ATM. These switches have the ability to handle large data traffic efficiently by reducing congestion on links along with providing load balancing functionality among ports.
Application Insights:
The telecommunications segment dominated the market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-speed data transfer and communication services across all segments of industry including business, home, and mobile. The application is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its broad application scope such as data center, corporate office/branch office distribution centers (DCDC), telecommunication exchange (TEL), etc. Enterprise managed switches are gaining popularity due to their enhanced features such as Quality of Service (QoS) implementation that offers dedicated bandwidth for specific applications thereby improving network performance.
The media & entertainment segment accounted for a considerable share in 2017 owing to growing demand from various end-use industries such as film production companies, gaming companies and software development firms that require high speedSAN storage solutions with low latency connectivity at affordable prices while delivering world class service quality.
Regional Analysis:
The North American region dominated the global market in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the presence of a large number of Ethernet switch manufacturers and increased adoption of high-speed internet services. Moreover, increasing demand for data storage and rapid technological advancements are also expected to drive regional product demand over the forecast period.
However, Asia Pacific is anticipated to emerge as the fastest-growing region with a CAGR exceeding 7% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing internet users in this region coupled with rising investments by telecom companies for deploying high-speed internet services at affordable prices. Furthermore, growing government initiatives such as Digital India are expected boost regional product demand further over the next eight years. Additionally, favorable regulatory frameworks in key countries such as China and Japan that enable data center operators & service providers cost-effective deployment models will propel industry growth over next few years (i)e.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Ethernet SAN switches from small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) due to the growing popularity of server virtualization, big data, and cloud computing.
- Proliferation of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) networking in datacenters, which is driving the need for higher-bandwidth Ethernet SAN switches.
- Emergence of new storage technologies such as all-flash arrays and software-defined storage that are increasing the demand for Ethernet SAN switches with higher port densities and more advanced features.
- Growing number of data center deployments in developing countries such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico due to the rising popularity of cloud computing services in these regions.
- Increased spending on information technology (IT) by enterprises worldwide as they look to improve their business efficiency through better use of technology
