The adoption of cloud services has, in turn, spurred the demand for virtual private server market for hosting and for supporting other critical business functions.
The report provides detailed insights into the market by operating system, organization size, vertical, and region.
Linux operating system to be the largest contributor to the virtual private server market growth during the forecast period
Organizations use VPS for their Windows and Linux applications. Linux VPS is one of the best options if a user wants more control over the things that have been installed on the server where the website has been hosted. Linux VPS provides with a multi-tenancy feature, which means allocation of resources, such as email accounts or disk space can be done easily. Linux VPS is easy to install and viable to deploy tools and add-ons as per user’s requirement. Thus, the Linux segment is expected to register higher growth in adoption.
Small and Medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to show high affinity toward VPS offerings to reduce cost of operations
The virtual private server market has been segmented by organization size into large enterprises and SMEs. Currently, the market share of the large enterprises segment is estimated to be higher; however, the market size of the SMEs is expected to increase at a higher CAGR in the coming years. The growing awareness of the benefits of VPS and the business expansions by global vendors in the SMEs segment are expected to be driving factors for the growth of VPS market.
Asia Pacific (APAC) to account for the largest market size during the forecast period
APAC is expected to offer significant growth opportunities for VPS vendors during the forecast period, as enterprises and SMEs across industry verticals are now adopting VPS services owing to its numerous advantages over traditional and physical servers. Additionally, the emergence of many startups within the virtual private server market across APAC is expected to drive the market here. China, Japan, and India have significant potential for the global VPS vendors, because of the availability of significant proportion of end-user verticals, favorable economic conditions by extending services to these regions, multifold increase in the adoption rate of virtualization environment-based applications, and absence of intense competition for market entrants. The APAC region has always been cautious about investment plans in terms of funding, and hence the enterprises in the region are turning toward the adoption of affordable VPS.
