KEY MARKET INSIGHTS
The global PCI Express Controllers Market was valued at USD 22.6 Bn in 2021. The market is projected to grow USD 48.3 Bn in 2030, at a CAGR of 9.3%. PCIe is a high-speed serial bus that is used in computers. It is also known as PCI Express or Peripheral Component Interconnect Express which is a physical connection that transports data and information from one device within the computer to another or between the computer and a piece of peripheral equipment. The technology is widely used in small, power-constrained IoT sensors and mobile devices to servers and networking and communications equipment. For consumer, enterprise, and embedded applications, the PCIe interface with NVMe protocol has become the new standard. Despite the fact that all three share the identical SSD architecture, their individual requirements are vastly different. While client and enterprise applications require the maximum capacity and speed.
Increasing adoption of M.2 form factor is likely top fuel the growth of the global PCI express controllers market. The global PCI express controllers market is expected to rise due to increased demand for high-speed connection devices systems, data center expansion, and growth in demand for PCI express controllers as a result of technological improvements. However, growth in the IT and telecom sectors are expected to provide profitable prospects for market players in the upcoming time. On the contrary, the PCI express controllers industry is predicted to benefit from the growing popularity of 5G technology and improved internet infrastructure around the world.
COVID-19 ANALYSIS
In 2020 and 2021, the COVID-19 epidemic had a negative impact on the PCI express controllers market which leading in lower revenue for market participants. In the midst of the COVID-19 epidemic, factors such as increased video streaming, video conferencing, online gaming, social networking, and many others have boosted internet traffic, necessitating the use of PCIe 4.0 interfaces. Furthermore, the use of PCIe 4.0 is still in demand due to the increasing rate of investments from many important suppliers in producing products that support Gen 4.0. This drop can be attributed to a number of factors, including slow pace of production and a scarcity of raw material suppliers, as well as the closure of several plants in several countries due to the pandemic, the suspension of business activities, massive surges in internet traffic, and rapid growth in data storage and processing requirements. The development in remote work scenarios, which has raised the demand for PCI express controllers products, software, and services, is likely to drive the demand of global PCI express controllers market.
