Market Overview:
The global platform virtualization software 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 cloud-based platform virtualization software and the growing trend of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device). Additionally, the increasing adoption of digital transformation initiatives by enterprises is also contributing to the growth of this market. However, lack of awareness about benefits offered by platform virtualization software and security concerns are some factors that could restrain the growth of this market. The global platform virtualization software market can be segmented on the basis of type into cloud-based and on-premises. On the basis of application, it can be segmented into small business, midsize enterprise, and large enterprise. Geographically, it can be segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa.
Product Definition:
Platform virtualization is the creation of a virtual platform that allows multiple operating systems to run concurrently on one physical computer. Platform virtualization software enables this by providing a software layer between the hardware and the operating systems, allowing each OS to think it is running on its own dedicated machine. This separation provides flexibility and security, as different users can be given different sets of permissions for each OS, and malware or viruses that infect one system cannot spread to others. Additionally, platform virtualization can help reduce hardware costs by allowing multiple instances of an operating system to run simultaneously on a single physical machine.
Cloud-based:
Cloud-based software is a type of software service model that provides shared pool of hardware and application resources. It also helps in reducing cost, time, and energy for organizations by offering them Software as a Service (SaaS) platform. Cloud-based solutions are gaining popularity among enterprises owing to benefits such as increased flexibility, reduced costs associated with hardware acquisition or maintenance, scalability & reliability along with ease of deployment.
On-premises:
On-premises is a term used for software and hardware installation at the customer's site. In other words, it means that all services are provided from the company’s server and Virtual Platform Services (VPS) can be utilized without any additional costs or charges. The on-premises solutions offer benefits such as easy maintenance of data security & privacy, high scalability & reliability, control over operating systems etc., which has increased its demand in recent years.
Application Insights:
The small business segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Virtualization software helps small businesses scale efficiently by providing a secure, stable and cost-efficient infrastructure. The platform also offers enhanced manageability with centralized management that allows organizations to scale rapidly without having to invest heavily in new systems, acquisitions or staff training.
Platform virtualization software has helped many SMEs achieve greater efficiency across all operations of their business including sales & marketing, product development & manufacturing, distribution & logistics as well as financials through improved visibility into customer behavior and engagement patterns which help them improve customer experience while increasing revenue generated from each sale transaction.
Regional Analysis:
The North American region accounted for the largest market share in 2016 and is expected to continue leading over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing cloud-based solutions deployment, high IT investment, and growing adoption of SaaS applications. Moreover, presence of major players such as IBM Corporation; Microsoft Corporation; Oracle Corporation; Google Inc.; Cisco Systems, Inc.; Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE); Citrix Systems, Inc.; Red Hat LLC; VMWare vowing continuous innovation is also contributing toward regional growth.
However, with changing regulatory scenario in various countries across Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa regions regarding data privacy and security issues has hampered virtualization software demand from consumers as well as enterprises.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for data center consolidation and server virtualization
- Proliferation of big data and cloud-based applications
- Emergence of software-defined networking (SDN) and network function virtualization (NFV)
- Growing popularity of hybrid cloud deployments
- Rapid adoption of container technologies
