TechNavio recognizes the following companies as the key players in the Global Green Data Center Market: Cisco Systems Inc., Dell Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co., IBM Corp., and Oracle Corp.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “Enterprises are focusing on investments in UC through different models, including on-premise, cloud, and hybrid solutions. This includes investment in different technologies covering enterprise IP telephony, collaborative applications, videoconferencing equipment, and enterprise mobility. The reduction in the hardware price of IP telephony systems provides an incentive for enterprises to adopt IP telephony. The market is also witnessing vendors providing hybrid private branch exchange systems which enable enterprises to benefit from next-generation IP solutions without replacing their existing systems. Some of the benefits of implementing UC solutions include increased productivity, increased flexibility for employees, and a faster response time for information.”
According to the report, the increased deployment of data centers is one of the major growth drivers. As a result of the rapid technological developments taking place in data center designs, increased performance is being witnessed from data center equipment. With better designs the data center can facilitate better airflow, which will reduce the need for cooling solutions. Furthermore, the increased need to reduce the operational costs associated with data centers is driving the higher adoption of green data center equipment by enterprises.
Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the huge capital investments. Enterprises are reluctant to bear the high cost of transforming traditional data centers in green data centers, as huge capital investments are required to procure new components for green data centers. The traditional data centers are equipped with outdated components which consume more power, thereby increasing the operational costs of data centers.
