DevOps Market Overview
The global DevOps market is expected to witness rapid growth in the coming years, owing to the swift adoption of automated software by small and medium enterprises (SME), growing requirement for high operational flexibility, and increasing demand for automated business operations in industries, including healthcare, manufacturing, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI), and government. Moreover, the surging requirement for a quick software development process, increasing demand for business agility, and reduced downtime in the software development lifecycle are also aiding in the market growth. The focus toward the implementation of technologies such as internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and cloud computing provides lucrative opportunities to the market players.
On the basis of tool, the DevOps market has been categorized into development tools, testing tools, and operation tools. These tools connect all the stages of the software development lifecycle, including development, testing, and operation, in order to fulfill specific business requirements and support the integration of automated processes in business applications.
Based on service, the DevOps market has been bifurcated into professional and managed. Of these, the professional services category is expected to witness faster growth during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increasing demand for automated professional services, which offer simplified project planning and execution, end-to-end management of solutions, streamlined project lifecycle, and improved resource productivity.
On the basis of enterprise size, the market has been categorized into large enterprises and SMEs. Of these, the large enterprise category held the larger share in 2018, owing to the high capital investment encouraging the adoption of DevOps solutions and increasing requirement for effective collaboration between software developers and IT teams. SMEs are expected to exhibit faster growth during the forecast period, which is primarily attributed to the rising demand for a reduction in IT expenditure and faster software delivery from end users.
On the basis of deployment, the DevOps market has been bifurcated into cloud and on-premises. Of these, the cloud category held the larger share in the market in 2018. This category is also projected to witness faster growth during the forecast period. This is attributed to the low implementation cost and easy deployment of applications and integration of professional services on hybrid cloud within DevOps, and enhanced flexibility related to business operations.
Geographically, North America held the largest share in the DevOps market in 2018. The key factors contributing to the regional market’s growth include advanced cloud infrastructure, adoption of digital services, and presence of key market players. Asia-Pacific (APAC) is projected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. This is mainly attributed to the increasing penetration of mobile devices and the internet, focus on digital transformation, and rising demand for improvement in organizational efficiency.
