The global market for Server Virtualization Software was valued at US$ 4158 million in the year 2024 and is projected to reach a revised size of US$ 6542 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period.
Server Virtualization Software is a type of software that allows multiple virtual servers to run on a single physical server by partitioning its resources, such as CPU, memory, and storage. This software enables organizations to maximize hardware utilization, reduce costs, improve scalability, and enhance disaster recovery capabilities. It abstracts the underlying hardware and creates isolated virtual environments, each capable of running its own operating system and applications.
VMware was the first-to-market server virtualization software in 1998. After that, Microsoft, Citrix, IBM (Red Hat), SUSE and Oracle released products one after another and seized market share. In recent years, Scale Computing, Proxmox and Sangfor have also entered the market, expanding their market share by reducing product costs and improving product performance. For example, Scale Computing claims that SC//Platform can reduce downtime by up to 90% and reduce total costs by up to 40% compared to VMware.
Server virtualization software has wide range of applications, such as banking and finance, health care, public sector, education, retail and others. The product can be classified as on-premises and cloud-based server virtualization software. In 2024, on-premises segment hold about 30% of the global market size.
