Technavio’s market research analysts predict the global workspace delivery network market to grow at a CAGR of more than 18% between 2016 and 2020. The growth of this market can be accredited to the increased virtualization in enterprises. Virtualization involves maximizing the capabilities of a PC or server. Through virtualization, new server environments can be built without new hardware, a single physical server can maintain multiple machines, and applications can be streamed from the server to desktop. During 2015, the global workspace delivery network market was dominated by the Americas with a market share of more than 51%. The presence of many large enterprises, high-speed broadband networking, and a large number of hosted servers are the key factors fueling the growth of this market in the Americas during the forecast period.
The new industry research report from Technavio discusses in detail the key drivers and trends responsible for the growth of this market and its sub-segments.
“One of key advantage associated with WDCs is its ability to check for server status and application execution status. In the case of a server failure or application termination before execution, the task is allocated to an alternative server, which minimizes the chances of a process failure. Similarly, in the case of large applications, the complex task is broken down into several simpler tasks and is executed on different servers. The results of the simpler tasks are then consolidated on a single server, and the final result is passed on to the client system,” says Amrita Choudhury, Lead Analyst, ICT, Technavio Research.
The ability of WDCs to enable efficient data traffic management is a key driver for its increasing adoption. WDCs are highly scalable, and workspace delivery networks have several servers, which provides an enormous amount of bandwidth capacity. Therefore, these networks are deployed to process data traffic efficiently, whenever there is a demand for accommodating a sudden surge in the Internet traffic without compromising on user experience.
The key vendors in the global workspace delivery network management market include Citrix Systems, Cisco, CloudGenix, Glue Networks, Talari Networks, A10 Networks, F5 Networks, Radware, Blue Coat Systems, Juniper Networks, Riverbed Technology, and Silver Peak. The SD-WAN vendor landscape is rapidly evolving, and solutions are available from both new and established networking vendors. Many of the SD-WAN vendors are acquiring smaller start-ups, such as CloudGenix, VeloCloud, Viptela, which lack the financial resources to sustain long-term market viability.
