"Within the Application Delivery Controller market, we see increasing strength in virtual appliances and expect this growth to continue throughout our forecast horizon," said Casey Quillin , Senior Analyst of Data Center Appliance Market Research at Dell'Oro Group. "Virtual appliances can quickly be deployed in production networks as unexpected or unplanned needs arise, such as supplementing existing hardware with a virtual appliance for peak load or surge situations. Also, most virtual appliances offer a pay-as-you-grow model and don't require a large upfront investment, such as a high end piece of hardware that is only half utilized. This favorable pricing model opens the door to smaller projects, thereby expanding the total available market," Quillin added.
In terms of revenue, the three largest virtual appliance vendors in the Application Delivery Controller market today are: Citrix, F5, and Riverbed.
