The Ethernet storage fabric market by device for switches to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

Switches are expected to continue to grow with the highest CAGR of the ESF market during the forecast period owing to its features such as cost-effective and scalability. Considering the rising demand for storage data on enterprise and cloud service provider data center, many players are heavily investing in manufacturing of ESF-based devices such as Mellanox Technologies, HPE, and Huawei Technologies. Moreover, HPE selects Mellanox Spectrum Ethernet switch to power its StoreFabric M-series storage networking switches. These factors have created huge opportunities for ESF-based switches in the market.

The cloud service provider data center is the fastest growing application of the market during forecast period

The cloud service provider data center expected to grow at the highest CAGR during forecast period. Major drivers for the rising adoption of cloud service provider data center are the growing trend of adopting big data analytics; rising demand from organizations for agile, scalable, and cost-effective computing technology; and increasing adoption of hybrid cloud technology.

The Ethernet storage fabric market in Asia Pacific (APAC) to grow with the highest CAGR during forecast period

APAC is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the ESF market. In APAC, the increasing number of small and medium-scale enterprises and the adoption of digital technologies in them further drive the demand for enterprise data centers. Moreover, the increasing penetration of the Internet and the rising population of internet users in the region creates a massive amount of data that drives the demand for cloud service provider data centers. All these parameters generate the need for high storage and switching solutions across the network infrastructure in enterprise and cloud service provider data centers. Hence, these factors are likely to result in the highest CAGR of the ESF market in APAC during the forecast period.
