MUMBAI (NNN-Bernama): India's growing IT infrastructure market will reach USD 2.05 billion in 2012 and USD 3.01 billion by 2016, according to market research agency Garner.

A 10.3 per cent increase will be registered in the domestic IT infrastructure market this year compared to 2011; Press Trust of India quoted the agency as saying.

Servers are the largest segment of the infrastructure market, as revenues are forecast to reach USD 754.5 million in 2012 and grow to USD 967.2 million in 2016.

"Technology's role in enterprise is increasing and IT's closer alignment with business and vice versa is a topic of much focus within Indian enterprises today," Gartner's Research Director Aman Munglani said.

"Soon there will be a time when there is no IT strategy, only a business strategy, as technology is seen as a business enabler and an engine for innovation," he added.

The external controller-based storage disk market in India is expected to grow from USD 439.4 million in end-user spending to USD 842 million in 2016.

This is the fastest growing segment within the IT infrastructure market.

The domestic enterprise network equipment market, which includes local area network and wide area network equipment, is expected to grow from USD 861 million in 2012 to USD 1.2 billion in 2016, Gartner said.

The agency said Indian IT organisations are making a big shift from a distributed IT setup to a more manageable and efficient centralised model, leading to consolidation of branch and remote IT resources into fewer, but larger data centres. -NNN- -BERNAMA
