Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio’s team said: “Network virtualization is the combination of hardware and software networks into a single entity, a virtual network. It is done by installing different software and services to manage certain applications. The airport requirements for exceeding the capabilities and providing the ability for some airlines to work temporarily from the airbase will facilitate the use of virtualization in the near future. Network virtualization helps in accommodating a variety of services on the same physical infrastructure. In addition, this helps in ensuring that the incumbent network will support the new infrastructure such as changing video surveillance and public safety devices. It provides scalability and flexibility to an increasing number of solutions, which add to the customer experience and satisfaction. It also delivers true native system functionality for controlling the growth of the facility. For instance, Zurich Airport utilized network virtualization to improve its operations.”
According to the report, there are several factors driving the growth of the Global Airport IT market, one of the main drivers is the need to improve the passenger experience. Currently, airports focus on technology to meet the increasing expectations of passengers. They are placing more importance on passengers and the marketing of the services rather than the promotion of different airlines and the selling of different products.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges is the high cost of implementation. Deployment of IT in airports is an expensive and time-consuming process, because of which it may lose out in the competition. Also, this may result in criticality in the implementation process.
