Version Control System Market Overview
The global version control system market is expected to grow at a substantial rate during the forecast period (2020–2030). Version control solutions enable the management of changes and configurations in an application and are primarily used for tracking modifications in software development projects. The massively growing usage of smartphones that require continuous monitoring and upgrade is a major factor contributing to the market growth. Moreover, with the advent of big data, proliferation of automated tools as business solutions, cloud-based deployment of enterprise solutions across small and large organizations, and increase in the number of data-intensive industries, the demand for version control solutions is witnessing an upward spiral around the world.
Based on component, the version control system market is bifurcated into solutions and services, of which solutions held the larger share in 2019. This can be primarily attributed to the significantly high adoption of advanced technology solutions among enterprises to monitor and safeguard their assets. Additionally, on the basis of deployment, the market is categorized into cloud and on-premises, of which the cloud-based category is expected to grow at a faster rate during the forecast period.
On the basis of industry, the version control system market is classified into information technology (IT) & telecom; banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI); healthcare & life sciences; retail & consumer packaged goods (CPG); education; and others. Among these, the IT & telecom category is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period, which can be attributed to the incremental release of updated software versions, developments in mobile applications, and the rising need in organizations for identifying and troubleshooting software bugs.
Globally, APAC is expected to be the fastest-growing market for version control systems and North America is expected to continue leading the market with the highest revenue contribution during the forecast period. The growth in the North American market is mainly driven by factors such as heavy spending on digital infrastructure development and technological advancements in secured cloud-based solutions.
