Data Center Switch Market size was valued at USD 8.46 billion in 2024 and is likely to cross USD 40.03 billion by 2037, registering more than 12.7% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of data center switch is estimated at USD 9.32 billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing adoption of data centers that are demanding reliable switching solutions across the globe. Furthermore, there has been a surge in the demand to the storage solutions, owing to which data architecture is changing for provide more benefits. Therefore, it is expected to boost the growth of global data center switch industry . As per the estimates, there are around 7,999 data centers in the entire world. Approximately 30% of them are in the United States.
Data center switch is one of the most important requirements in the premises of the data center, and is basically found in the server areas. Since the data center network infrastructure are disaggregated owing to which the new type of switch such as data center switch awareness is growing among the data centers. They are mainly used by large enterprises, that are capable of adopting technologies. There are three types of data center switches, such as the TOR switch, core, and others that are witnessing a boom in the market owing to the rising demand for easier automation systems, and data center management by the different end-users. In addition, the surging trend of bare metal switches and the growing requirement for bandwidth in the data centers are also expected to provide opportunities for the growth of the market.
