Market Trends of Virtualization Software Industry

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Virtualization Software Market according to our research experts:

PC/ Desktop Virtualization is expected to hold Major Market share

  • PC virtualization refers to the virtualization of the workstation load rather than a server. With a thin client at the desk, the user typically has remote access to the PC. This provides secure and portable access, as the workstation operates in a data center server. Numerous enterprises are adopting PC virtualization solutions to minimize IT infrastructure costs and enhance deployment speed. According to a survey conducted by PC Matic, virtual private networks (VPNs) have grown significantly in the United States in recent years. 15.3% of participants used a VPN at work in 2019. The percentage of respondents increased to 63% this year.
  • PC virtualization is used with application virtualization and user profile management systems to offer a comprehensive desk environment management system. Other factors anticipated to drive demand for the market include rising competition in the IT sector, which will emphasize cost savings, increasing digitization of processes, and an increase in the mobile workforce.
  • The major trend observed in the market is the increasing demand for PC virtualization in the healthcare sector amid the digital transformations over the past few years. This has paved the way for IT services within the healthcare sector.
  • Enterprises are focused on remote working to increase the efficiency and productivity of their employees. Virtual working and Internet computing save IT infrastructure costs. Clouds have become popular as an infrastructure, allowing the constantly scalable and virtualized distribution of computer capabilities as a utility. The increased acceptance of cloud computing and the organizational preference for installing workstations in the cloud promote the use of PC virtualization.

Asia - Pacific is Expected to Register the Largest Market

  • Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the highest growth rate owing to the region's increasing adoption of virtualization technology and digitalization activities. Asia-Pacific is a key market for virtualization software and is witnessing steady growth throughout the projection timeframe due to its expanding economy, increased expenditures on IT infrastructure, and a surge in the frequency of government and commercial projects aimed at deploying IoT and artificial intelligence (AI) technology throughout several sectors.
  • With the increasing use of modern technologies and the rising number of digitization activities by different regional organizations, Japan is predicted to grow significantly in the virtualization market. The rise of the IT, telecommunications, and banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) sectors also contributes significantly to industry expansion. Increasing acceptance of virtual desktop interfaces (VDI) and software virtualization solutions is driving market growth in large-scale IT companies.
  • Furthermore, increasing investments by major players operating in the market are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market to grow over the forecast period. For instance, According to Hewlett Packard Enterprise, this year, KDDI, a renowned Japanese telecommunications operator, deployed the HPE ProLiant DL110 Gen10 -Telco server for the commercial network operation of O-RAN compliant 5G standalone base stations.
  • Furthermore, this year, Microsoft announced the availability of DCsv3-series virtual machines (VMs) in Australia East, Japan East, and Southeast Asia. The virtual computers of the DCsv3 and DCdsv3 series serve to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the business code and data while they are being processed in the public cloud. Intel Software Guard Extensions and Intel Total Memory Encryption - Multi Key can ensure that data is always encrypted and protected in use. These computers are powered by the newest 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor and can achieve 3.5 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0.
