Digital Transformation Due to COVID-19 Lockdowns- Key Growth Factor
Workforces across industries and companies are adopting digital methods of collaboration due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This has led to a surge in demand for edge computing capabilities by IT companies that offer collaboration products. Google LLC, Zoom Video Communications, and Datacenter providers are some examples of edge computing. As the user counts increase, so will the need for enhanced edge computing. For instance, Zoom Video Communications has been buying servers across the world to increase its user capacity. The company has witnessed a huge uptake in user counts since nationwide lockdowns were imposed to contain the spread of COVID-19.
Similarly, Google LLC is increasing its processing power to facilitate the use of its products such as Hangouts, Google Classrooms, and Google Business. The trend of digital transformation among organizations and consumers alike presents exponential growth opportunities for market players. Further, it is expected that once on-board, users of edge computing will realize the benefits of the varied range of products and continue to generate demand during the forecast period.
Some of the major competitors operating in the edge computing market are Cisco Systems, Inc., Digi International Inc., General Electric Company, Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LP, Honeywell International Inc., IBM Corporation, Intel Corporation, Microsoft Corporation and others.
