Global Data Processing Unit (DPU) Market Outlook- 2031
The Data Processing Unit (DPU) Market size was valued at $553.96 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $5.5 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 26.9% from 2022 to 2031.
Data processing units, also referred to as DPUs, are advanced, reprogrammable, high-performance processors combined with modern network interfaces that are optimized to perform and accelerate network and storage functions carried out by data center servers. DPUs allow servers to offload network and storage functions from the central processing unit (CPU) to the DPU, allowing the CPU to focus only on running the operating systems and system applications.
DPUs often use a reprogrammable FPGA combined with a network interface card to accelerate network traffic the same way that GPUs are being used to accelerate artificial intelligence (AI) applications by offloading mathematical operations from the CPU to the GPU. In the past, GPUs were used to deliver rich, real-time graphics. This is so because they can process large amounts of data in parallel making them ideal for accelerating AI workloads, such as machine learning and deep learning, and other artificial intelligence workloads.
Segmenet Overview
The data processing unit market is segmented into Data Center Type, Type and Application.
By data center type, it is divided into colocation, hyperscale, edge and others. The hyperscale segment was the highest revenue contributor to the market in 2021.
By type, the market is divided into ASIC-based, FPGA-based and SOC based. The FPGA-based segment was the highest revenue contributor to the market in 2021.
By application, it is segmented into BFSI, IT & telecom, government, energy & utilities and others. The IT & telecom segment was the highest revenue contributor to the market in 2021.
Region wise, the data processing unit market trends are analyzed across North America (the U.S., Canada), Europe (UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific) and LAMEA (Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa). North America, specifically the U.S., remains a significant participant in the global industrial semiconductor. Major organizations and government institutions in the country are intensely putting resources into the technology.
While there is a rapid shift in the world towards digital information, tons of data is being generated daily. This is especially true as the number of IoT devices, autonomous vehicles, connected homes, and connected workplaces come online, saturating data centers with data. So, there is a need for solutions that can enable data centers to cope with the ever-increasing amount of data moving in/out of data centers and the data moving through a data center.
DPU processor is gaining popularity among the major technology companies including Microsoft and Google that are incorporating this modern technology to their data centers to accelerate data processing and artificial intelligence workloads. The outbreak of COVID-19 significantly impacted growth of outdoor manufacturing and industrial sectors in 2020; however, surge in deployment of advanced networking and communication technologies witnessed relatively high growth during 2021. Nevertheless, the market was principally hit by several obstacles created amid the COVID-19 pandemic such as lack of skilled workforce availability and delay or cancelation of projects owing to partial or complete lockdown across the globe. In contrast, rise in penetration of Internet of Things solution across industrial, manufacturing, automotive, and electronics sectors is expected to drive growth of the data processing unit market share during the forecast period.
Significant factors that impact growth of the DPU market size include surge in penetration of high-end cloud computing in enterprise. Moreover, rise in data center complexities due to scalability is expected to drive the data processing unit market growth. However, rise in concerns related to data privacy and growing demand for managed services might hamper growth of the data processing unit industry. On the contrary, increase in adoption of multi-cloud and network upgrade to support 5G technology offers potential growth opportunities for the data processing unit market.
