White Box Server Market Drivers
Growing acceptance of work-from-home culture in various organizations:
Increasing acceptance of
work-from-home culture in various companies is boosting the growth
of the White Box Server Market. Working from home generates a large amount of
useful data that must be safely stored. Blade servers
enable data backup and have multiple, redundant storage compartments, resulting
in their increased adoption among organizations. It aids in the backup of
useful data generated by various network systems and ensures secure and
accessible data storage. In January 2022, Advantech collaborated with Telco to
launch a white box platform for enterprises & service providers to simplify
& streamline edge device management and services across multiple
websites. According to a report by TechSolution in 2021, using white box servers
provided by OEMs resulted in 20% lower total costs and 25% increased energy
efficiency. These factors would eventually help in expanding the White Box
Server market size in the long run.
Increasing emphasis on virtual learning is driving the need for strong servers:
Growing trends toward virtual
learning are driving the demand for powerful servers, which further accelerates the
growth of the White Box Server market. Strong servers are required to optimize the space and performance requirements of the students for virtual learning. White
box servers are available at remote locations through managed colocation and
private data centers. A network administrator can remotely control the white
box server functionality without physically accessing the host server. BYJU'S has
reported a 200% increase in the number of new students using the platform in
India since it announced free live classes on its Think and Learn mobile app.
In May 2020, the Government of India launched the PM eVIDYA program to make
e-learning more accessible to students and teachers while also promoting and
strengthening digital education in India. Such developments are resulting in
the wider adoption of distance learning programs, which further leads to increased
adoption of white box servers. These factors are set to elevate the growth of the White
Box Server market size in the coming time.
White Box Server Market Challenge
