4Q’20 Results Mixed; Data Center Switching Hits New Record While Campus Switching Contracts Y/Y
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. – March 3, 2021 – A newly released report by 650 Group, a leading Market Intelligence Research firm for communications, data center, and cloud markets, indicates that the Ethernet Switch Market declined nearly 2% for 2020, to $32B. The report also reveals significant regional differences globally, with China showing robust growth in 2020, and with Europe, Japan, and the United States all contracting. "The Ethernet Switch market contracted in the expected regions and verticals in 2020. COVID-19 constraints, consequent factory shutdowns, and rapid shifts in economic contraction and expansion were the key themes to last year's results," said Alan Weckel, Founding Technology Analyst at 650 Group. "Semiconductor shortages, increased lead times for data center products, and timing of workers returning to the office will shape the rebound for 2021. Our vertical analysis of the campus and data center switching markets indicates a different recovery rate and technology use as the market begins to rebound in 2021. 2021 will see a significant ramp in multigig in campus, 400 Gbps in the data center, and the first shipments of 800 Gbps based switches." The Quarterly Ethernet Switch report also indicates that the top three campus switch vendors after Cisco in North America were HPE Aruba, Juniper, and Extreme. The top three data center switch branded vendors after Cisco in North America were Arista, Juniper, and Dell. The report highlight how business size, vertical exposure, and hyperscaler adoption drove vendor performance throughout 2020.

Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google GCP made up over 60% of the revenue with Alibaba being the largest non-US provider. AWS brought in $86,000 per minute in revenue and made $26,000 per minute in profit dollars. While GCP, in third place, brought in $3,300 per minute in revenue while losing $1,400 per minute in 2020. Additionally, 2020 saw Alibaba record its first profitable quarter. "While revenue continues to surge for IaaS as many businesses rely on it as a foundational building block for their data, profit dollars remain challenging as companies look to grow and expand instead of relying solely of profit to make investment decisions," said Alan Weckel, Founding Technology Analyst at 650 Group. Continued Weckel: "2021 is shaping up as an important battle of US IaaS hyperscalers as they invest to their strengths to continuing expanding. The battle for Artificial Intelligence (AI/ML) with IaaS providers is presently in its infancy with many suppliers vying for position for the underlying technology."

Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) and Security as a Service Will Drive SASE
INCLINE VILLAGE, Nevada, Feb. 10, 2021 - According to a new report published by 650 Group, titled Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) Forecast and Research Report 2020-2025, the size of the market is predicted to grow by more than a factor of five from 2020 to 2025. The report includes market share assessments and market forecasts. As the information technology industry embraces cloud-based computing, remote workers, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, both networking and security infrastructures are evolving. Perimeter-based security systems are insufficient to reduce security exposure as computing moves to support Software as a Service (SaaS), cloud computing, and colocation-based computing. Additionally, as workers become increasingly mobile and as they work from home, while, at the same time, organizations embrace the use of IoT devices, new technology is needed to identify and lock down access to corporate resources. "We anticipate that security and networking industries will consolidate together in the coming years. The emergence of SASE, which is a combination of both security and networking technology, is part of a larger trend that will drive vendor consolidation," said Chris DePuy, Technology Analyst at 650 Group. "There is tremendous opportunity for new vendors to stake their claim in this increasingly complex computing environment."

INCLINE VILLAGE, NEV. Feb. 3, 2021 - According to a new report published by 650 Group, titled Workloads and Multi-Cloud Forecast 2020-2025, the worldwide number of workloads being deployed will increase nearly 500% by 2025. Workloads continue to evolve for both search and social clouds, as well as IaaS and SaaS providers. Workload definitions evolve as technology expands. Historically, the context of a workload tied it directly to the number of servers, and later, it was the number of virtual machines (VMs) or applications that spanned machines. Today, the context evolves to the number of containers or individual serverless code-snippets. The compute, storage, and networking infrastructure had to evolve to support how the application changes. "Multi-Cloud and new AI /ML workloads are driving significant investment in data centers with new compute and networking infrastructures emerging to address new workloads," said Alan Weckel, Technology Analyst at 650 Group. “The time has passed for an application and its data to reside in one data center. There is a tremendous opportunity for new vendors in multi-cloud, as well as co-location, to address the evolving needs of enterprises.” To purchase the report: 650 Group offers this report for $995 to a single user at a single company and $1,995 to a group of five users at a single company and have additional options for redistribution and external use of the data.
