Overview of the global fiber channel adapter market
According to Technavio’s fiber channel adapter market research report, the market will grow at a CAGR of more than 14% during the forecast period. The emergence of big data analytics and storage area networking (SAN) is one of the key factors that will drive the growth of this market during the predicted period. Big data analytics are highly used in business and consumer-based applications because they help understand the data. This enables businesses to make decisions based on the collected data. High-performance SAN storage is mandatory for block-level storage access for carrying out these analytics operations. This boosts the adoption of fiber channel adapters since they are used in SAN storage systems as hardware components that are used to connect the server to SAN.
The increasing adoption of virtualized computing environments is one of the key fiber channel adapter market trends that will gain traction in the market. A large number of enterprises and end-users across the world are extensively adopting virtualization and virtualized computing systems. They are used to increase the load of the data transmission mediums by simulating multiple instances of the equipment over a single physical infrastructure. This fuels the adoption of fiber channel adapters in virtualized computing environments that support all type of data to be transmitted on a single transmission medium.
