Global Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) Market Size, Status and Forecast 2020-2026

Software Defined Data Center Market

The global Software-Defined Data Center market size is projected to reach USD 78520 Million by 2026, from USD 36960 Million in 2020, at a CAGR of 13.4% during 2021-2026.

Major Factors:

The growing need to improve infrastructure resiliency and service uptime, cost benefits associated with network automation and reduced energy usage, the ability to scale up or down based on demand, and reduced reliance on legacy costly hardware are expected to drive the growth of the software-defined data center market.

Trends Influencing the Growth of Software Defined Data Center Market

The growth of the Software-Defined Data Center market is expected to be fueled by cost savings associated with network automation and lower energy consumption. Organizations are migrating away from the time-consuming process of hardware procurement and management and toward the more reliable model of Operational Expenditure (OPEX). IT infrastructure costs account for a significant portion of a company's overall costs. SDDC solutions can help them save money while also improving overall IT performance.

The growing demand for improved IT agility and reduced IT infrastructure complexity is propelling the software-defined data center market forward. The Software-Defined Data Center will help standardize management tools across infrastructure layers, allowing policy-driven provisions and a combination of infrastructure resources to respond to new IT resource requests more quickly. SDDC also enables IT administrators to lower end-user business operating costs, create a roadmap for end-user modernization, and maintain provisioning control.

The market for software-defined data centers is expected to grow as big data grows exponentially and the demand for data storage grows. Different devices and technologies now generate a large amount of data every second. By 2020, the total amount of digital data is expected to increase from 3.2 zettabytes to 40 zettabytes. Traditional storage options are more expensive and less reliable than SDDCs, which are more efficient and cost-effective in storing this massive amount of data.

Software Defined Data Center Market Share Analysis

Based on the application, the BFSI vertical is expected to hold the largest software-defined data center market share during the forecast period. Different cloud strategies are being implemented because BFSI organizations are expected to deal with key issues such as data storage, retrieval, and cybersecurity, as well as the management of vast amounts of data that must be processed, stored and replicated repeatedly. 

The need for SDDCs to simplify and manage IT services across heterogeneous clouds is driven by the continuous transfer of both data protection and scalability to the hybrid cloud world.

Based on the region, the North American region is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. The SDDC market in North America is now mature, with a large number of new SDDC installations and upgrades to existing data center infrastructure systems taking place. Because it is home to major telecommunications giants, well-established vendors, and end-user industries that are constantly adapting to new technology to boost business competitiveness and work efficiency, the United States (US) currently holds the largest share in the software-defined data center industry.
