The data center transformation market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, the market size of data center transformation has seen significant growth. This is expected to continue, with projections suggesting the market will expand from $12.05 billion in 2024 to $13.09 billion in 2025, boasting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%.
This growth throughout the historical period is largely due to factors such as an increase in data center traffic, a surge in the demand for cloud computing services, the uptake of digital enterprise solutions like ERP and analytics, investments in leading-edge data center technology, and the growing requirement for data center modernization.
The data center transformation market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of data center transformation is projected to experience swift expansion in the upcoming years. The value is predicted to augment to $19.44 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%.
The upswing during the forecast period is likely due to the adoption of 5G technology, the rising demand for software-driven data centers, the proliferation of cloud-based services and data centers, supportive government guidelines for data center upgradation, and growing implementation of innovative technologies in data centers. The forecast period will also witness significant trends such as the utilization of advanced solutions for data center transformation, focus on sustainability through energy-saving solutions, launch of ground-breaking products, and aggressive marketing strategies to boost brand awareness.
Rapid and voluminous data creation is slated to drive the expansion of the data center transformation market. The process of data production, which is gaining momentum due to the widespread use of digital elements including smartphones, IoT devices, social media platforms, and digital transactions, involves creating data from diverse sources and interactions. Infrastructure and tools for efficient management and processing of the surging volumes of data are provided by data center transformation. For example, a report by Sky's The Limit (STL), a US-based optical and digital solutions company, indicated in December 2022 that approximately 79 zettabytes of data was created globally in 2021 . It is projected that by 2025, the volume of data generated would hit 150 zettabytes, a figure that stands at twice the estimated data generation for 2022. Thus, the mounting volume and pace of data creation are pivotal factors contributing to the growth of the data center transformation market.
