MARKET DYNAMICS

Driving Factors

Explosion of Data Volume to Drive Market Advancement

One of the key driving factors in the Data Infrastructure market growth is the Explosion of Data Volume. The explosion of data due to smartphones, IoT devices, social media, e-commerce sites, and enterprise software has necessitated the turnover of sophisticated data infrastructure to coordinate, store and analyze vast bodies of data.

Digital Transformation Across Industries to Expand the Market

Organizations within various industries, including healthcare, finances, manufacturing, and retail, are moving towards digitalization in order to increase the efficiency of their businesses, improve customer experience and survive within the competitive environment. The process that makes transformation possible needs a solid data basis a safe place of its storage, a live-processing component, and an integration process which is the reason of spending money to update the data base.

Restraining Factor

High Initial Investment Costs to potentially impede Market Growth

It takes a large capital expenditure to come up with a sound data infrastructure. Expenses are parts (servers, storage systems) and software licensing, highly skilled labor, and integration tools. In small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) these upfront costs may act as a barrier causing a delay in implementation. They lead to continued subscription and cost of data transfer even in cloud-based models, which has the effect of making it expensive to operate on part of the business.

Rise of Cloud Computing and Hybrid Models To Create Opportunity for the Product in the Market

Opportunity

The increasing trend of data infrastructure that has cloud-based and hybrid innovations is transforming data management in the business world. AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google cloud are all cloud platforms that provide cost-effective, scalable and flexible infrastructure. The hybrid model is not only highly appealing to companies that intend to be both secure and moving, but it also integrates both the on-premises and cloud options.

Data Volume and Scalability Issues Could Be a Potential Challenge for Consumers

Challenge

Data growth exponential growth in data due to the IoT, mobile devices, social media, and online transactions that keep increasing pressure on data infrastructure systems. Traditional infrastructures are not able to process petabytes of data in real-time and as a result, this creates bottlenecks in performance.

Scaling horizontally and vertically can be a very important aspect to ensure that most systems are scalable, and in most cases a lot of reengineering and modernization to cloud or hybrid systems may be required; something not all organizations can be ready to do.
