The Global KVM Market is expected to expand at 2.7% CAGR to reach a market value of USD 1,155.8 Million by 2025.
Data center providers constantly strive to reduce the overall IT cost and data center space and take help of various technologies in achieving the same. One such technology/system is KVM. KVM system allows the operator to control multiple computers from a single keyboard, video monitor, and mouse console. It enables the access and control of both local and remote network equipment with various KVM components including KVM extenders. IP KVM switches have the capability to help the operators to access and control devices from any remote location with an internet connection. It, therefore, allows data center operators to connect to any server in the rack from a single centralized location and helps in saving space, reducing additional hardware cost, and streamlining data center design.

Apart from these benefits, the key benefit that makes KVM an integral part of any data center is energy efficiency. Deployment of KVM leads to energy efficiency enhancement. KVM eliminates the need for any additional hardware which reduces redundancy, therefore less power is consumed due to lower electrical load. Due to these benefits, it is being widely used across all type of data centers. Also, there has been an increased discussion over creating green data centers or server rooms. The demand for green data centers has gained pace largely due to various regulatory norms regarding optimizing energy usage. Data centers, in general, are highly energy-intensive. A single server in a data center can use anywhere between 500 to 1,200 watts per hour. So, a single server can consume 20,400 watts, daily (considering average power use to 850 watts) and a data center contains up to a thousand servers which typically means that these data center consume tremendous power. In order to overcome this challenge, various national regulatory bodies, as well as independent organizations, have been promoting green data centers and optimization of power usage in the existing data centers. KVM plays a key role in reducing energy dissipation in server rooms and data centers. As operators and designers of data centers are now striving to optimize power usage in data centers or server rooms, they are significantly deploying KVMs on premise, which in turn is expected to drive the overall market.
