High-Performance Computing (HPC) Market is Expected to Reach USD 54.4 Billion by 2027

Published | 12 January 2021

According to BlueWeave Consulting, the global high-performance computing market is estimated to have reached USD 37.1 billion in 2020 and is further projected to reach USD 54.4 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 5.6% during 2021-2027 (forecast period). The growing need for high-efficiency computing, continued diversification, and expansion of the IT industry, advances in virtualization, and rising preference for hybrid High-Performance Computing (HPC) solutions are some of the factors expected to fuel the growth of the market. The ability of HPC systems to process large volumes of data at higher speeds is prompting government agencies, defense agencies, academic institutions, energy companies, and utilities to adopt HPC systems, which also bodes well for the growth of the HPC market.

Life Science and healthcare is expected to witness significant growth

According to HPC Wire, advances in genomics, precision medicine, the widespread adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) and digital imaging, and the increasing proliferation of medical IoT and mobile devices have resulted in an explosive growth of structured and unstructured healthcare-related data. With the increased need for fast-paced data analysis in the healthcare system, healthcare has been at the forefront of technology adoption over the past two decades. Moreover, the need to expedite drug discovery study has been among the other factors that have complemented the adoption of high-performance solutions. The adoption of AI in the medical sector, to help the healthcare professionals in diagnostics, has been a massive enabler to the approval of these solutions in the industry application.

On-premises segment occupies the major share of the global high-performance computing market

Based on deployment, the high-performance computing market is categorized into on-premises& cloud. Of these, the on-premises segment held the largest revenue share in 2019. This is attributed to the fact that governments remain keen on securing the sensitive data related to the national security and personal data of the citizens and enterprises are concerned about the protection of their respective organizational data. As a result, on-premises infrastructure is still being preferred over a cloud-based infrastructure. Such factors are expected to fuel the growth of the on-premise segment. The Cloud deployment helps organizations in minimizing their operational costs as they do not have to invest in any additional computing resource. 

Emergence of Exascale computing

The emergence of exascale computing is expected to open new growth opportunities for the HPC market over the forecast period. Exascale computing is the ability of computing systems to perform a billion calculations per second. Exascale computing also provides advanced simulation and modeling solutions that can potentially address the key challenges in natural security, energy, economic competitiveness, and scientific discovery. HPC systems require higher performance bandwidth and memory capacity to process large volumes of data efficiently and exascale computing can address both these challenges.
