Outlook on the Global Supercomputers Market 2019-2024: Anticipating a CAGR of Approx 9.5% - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "Supercomputers
Market - Growth, Trends, and Forecast (2019 - 2024)" report has
been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The supercomputer market is expected to register a CAGR of about 9.5%
during the forecast period 2019-2024.

The increasing use of cloud technology is one of the significant
supercomputer market trends. With the growing workload, supercomputing
centers are adopting cloud and parallel applications are being run by
the cloud as they do not require particular architecture. With rising
sophisticated applications in the future, the demand for cloud will
consequently increase. Several giant companies are shifting toward
partnership and collaboration to provide enormous growth potential.

Key Highlights

• CRAY, a major player in the market, is developing vector processing
  systems that are using better architecture and provide higher
  efficiency than the present parallel processing machines. Thus, vector
  processing is expected to again gain prominence and its market share
  is expected to increase.
• Government entities are the highest revenue generating end user. They
  have major control over the supercomputer market. The major reason for
  the high growth of commercial industries is the scalability and
  applications of supercomputers.
• However, the high initial setup cost is challenging the growth of the
  market.

Major Market Trends

Increasing Demand for Higher Processing Power to Drive Market Growth

• Development of highly sophisticated models that deal with complex
  physics, chemistry and environmental issues require higher computing
  resources to solve the problems associated with them.
• The development of such models is needed to solve problems and
  innovate products and solutions that make lives easier. Supercomputing
  is the fastest way to solve problems that would otherwise require
  years. The need for higher processing power increases as the problems
  get complicated.
• According to Cisco, till 2019, IoT devices will generate an estimated
  500 zettabytes of data per year and that number is expected to grow
  exponentially, not linearly, for the years beyond. To handle this
  amount of data, the only supercomputer can process it and give the
  desired output in less time.
• Therefore, countries across the globe engaging in promoting the use of
  supercomputers. China is leading with the most number of
  supercomputers followed by the United States as these countries are
  heavy into R&D and innovations.

Asia-Pacific to Register a Significant Growth Rate

• Due to the rising trend of accessing and processing huge amount of
  data at faster rates and extending applications in various fields,
  such as weather forecasting, defense research, and medical
  applications, many countries across the region are investing in the
  development of supercomputers.
• The major contribution in investment and development in Asia-Pacific
  is from countries like China, Japan, and India that invest heavily in
  the technology landscape. Thus, Asia-Pacific is projected to be the
  major market for supercomputers.
• Further, China is constantly striving to develop the most advanced
  supercomputers in the world, which has led to the development of
  Tianhe-2A, Sunway TaihuLight, and PAI-Bsystem, among others. Japan and
  India are also gaining momentum in the supercomputer market with high
  investments from the respective governments toward supercomputer
  infrastructure.

Competitive Landscape

The supercomputers market is consolidated due to a few major players
holding a greater share of the market. Some of the key players include
Cray, HPE, Atos, Dell, FUJITSU Corporation, IBM Corporation, Lenovo, NEC
Technologies India, among others.

Recent Developments

• May 2019 - Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Cray Inc., a global
  supercomputer leader, announced that the companies have entered into a
  definitive agreement under which HPE will acquire Cray for YSD 35.00
  per share in cash, in a transaction valued at approximately USD 1.3
  billion, net of cash.
• April 2019 - Atos, one of the global leaders in digital
  transformation, achieved the Internet of Things (IoT) Partner
  Specialization in the Google Cloud Partner Specialization Program. By
  earning the Partner Specialization, Atos has proven their expertise
  and success in building customer solutions in the Internet of Things
  (IoT) field using Google Cloud Platform technology.
