The global virtual desktop infrastructure market refers to the market of software and services that are used for the virtualization of a standard desktop system. The VDI enables the customers to access virtualized desktop hosted on a centralized server in the data center over the internet. The shadow image of a desktop is accessible on the network to the end-point device which permits users to interact with the operating system and applications. VDI offers the advantage of utilizing the same image which reduces the required storage space, licensing and capital savings, easy troubleshooting of technical problems and enhanced data security.

Global virtual desktop infrastructure market is estimated to grow with 9.18 % CAGR during the year 2019-2027. The base year considered for the study is 2018 and the estimated period is between 2019 and 2027. In 2018, the market was valued $5,045 million and is expected to grow to $11,383 million by 2027. The following factors drive the growth of the VDI market:

  • Increased adoption of bring your own device (BYOD)
  • Increasing adoption of cloud technology in the end-user segment
  • The increasing demand for workplace flexibility

The most important driver is the increase in the adoption of bring your own device policy in worldwide organizations, which is primarily driving the global virtual desktop infrastructure market. Its implementation is a cost-saving measure for devices and other equipment assets. Employees are offered with the flexibility to work from self-owned devices that contribute towards the increased productivity of an organization, so the latter in turn encourages the BYOD adoption.

Bring your own device (BYOD) includes smartphones, laptops, tablets, and other devices and facilitate the employees to acquire independent access for their document from outside the workplace. Furthermore, VDI provides sensitive applications along with data in the data center at which all applications can be centrally protected and managed.

Hence, the VDI helps organizations to manage the mobile devices by delivering the whole suite of company data and applications to the employee devices without any modification and exposure to PF sensitive information.

The largest and the fastest segment, when bifurcated by deployment type, is the cloud based deployment of VDI. The adoption of cloud based virtual desktop infrastructure is expected to increase owing to the rising demand of secured and remotely accessible architecture within the different verticals such as retails, IT, government and financial services. This can be estimated from the shifting data traffic from traditional architecture to cloud based computing.

For instance, as per the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in the year 2010, global data traffic on data center has increased from over 5 log exabytes per year to over 8.5 log exabytes per year as of the year 2016. The data traffic is further expected to reach around 9.6 to 10 log exabyte by the year 2020.

Furthermore, as per the Intel open source technology center, private clouds have become more reliable for application uptime. The application uptime has been stated at 99.99% by the center. Along with this private cloud also decreases the time to market by about 5.88 times for digital services. Owing to these benefits, the market of cloud based VDI is expected to increase in the forecast years.

The restraints of virtual desktop infrastructure market are the lack of training and education, system complexity and compatibility issues and rise in freeware software. The most significantly affecting restraint is the complexity associated with the system and the compatibility issues. The concerns related to incompatibility in VDI is one of the major factors that is expected to restrict the growth of the global virtual desktop infrastructure market during the forecast period. For deploying a solution, a complex back-end infrastructure along with a robust network and understanding of all principles is necessary.

Furthermore, VDI deployment also turns out to be costly at a fair extent considering its massive client to host ratios. Moreover, heavy resource needs and duplication of desktops are also some of the compatibility concerns addressed by VDI. Owing to such concerns, other alternatives such as personal virtualization, remote desktop service (RDS), etc. are picking up the pace that in turn is hindering the adoption of VDI across various verticals including healthcare, IT and others.

Geographically, the global virtual desktop infrastructure market has been segmented on the basis of four major regions, which includes:

North America is the largest market for virtual desktop infrastructure market. It includes the United States and Canada, amongst which the United States dominates the region. The United States virtual desktop infrastructure market is significantly driven by accelerating BYOD policies along with the high penetration of smartphones. According to the White House Organization, the groups working on bring your own devices (BYOD) has highlighted a successful implementation of a BYOD program at several government agencies.

For instance, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is the first agency to implement BYOD that allowed employees to ‘opt out’ of the government provided mobile device program along with third-party installed software on their smartphones that enabled the use of their device for official work purposes.

Similarly, the State of Delaware has also taken an effort to introduce the concept of BYOD to realize significant cost savings, that could save the country around half of its wireless expenditure. Hence, the accelerating BYOD policies would increase the adoption of virtual desktop infrastructure since using BYOD, and one can access information and applications using a centralized server in data centers. As a result, the demand for virtual desktop infrastructure would increase, thereby supplementing the growth of the virtual desktop infrastructure across the United States.

On the other hand, Asia Pacific has the fastest growing regional virtual desktop infrastructure market which is expected to be on up-surging trend owing to the growing adoption of BYOD among the workforce, adoption of cloud computing and the growth in the mobile workforce. Amongst the Asia Pacific region, India is the fastest growing market. India virtual desktop infrastructure market is expected to be on up-surging trends owing to the adoption of BYOD and cloud computing penetration.

Further, increasing mobile workforce in the country is also fueling market growth in the country. Rise in the mobile workforce is one of the major factors for triggering demand for virtual desktop infrastructure in the country. According to IMAI (Internet and Mobile Association of India), internet users in India will reach 500 million by June 2018. In rural India, internet usage has increased from 18.6% in 2016 to 21% in 2017, as per IMAI.

On the other hand, the urban population of India 60.06% in 2016 were using the Internet which increased to 64.84% in 2017. India managed mobility market is contributed by rising adoption of BYOD in organizations. Major factor attributing the adoption of BYOD is increasing internet penetration and the rising number of smartphone and laptops. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation, Internet users in India is expected to increase from 429.23 million in 2017 to 829 million by 2021.
