2019 Data Internet market will reach nearly $ 5 billion

ACG research firm expects the global optical fiber data center interconnect market will grow from $ 1.1 billion in 2014 to $ 4.7 billion in 2019, a compound annual growth rate of 44.9%.

"The growth is mainly affected by the fiber DCI markets services to data center and cloud migration demand-driven, because service providers need to simplify deployment model and deliver new services and differentiated services", ACG intelligent transport network Practice Leader Tim Doiron said, "The new expansion data center deployments are subject to a variety of service providers including Internet content providers, network service providers and swap providers and promote business. As more and more functions to develop into automation and virtualization, data center interconnect on the capacity, flexibility and versatility of demand will continue to grow, promoting reliable, cost-effective high-speed data center interconnects demand is also a corresponding increase. "

ACG also evaluated the fiber DCI product sales trends, including long distance and metro applications, whether it is large or small multi-slot rack device packaged fiber accessories. ACG platform is expected to Metro DCI (DCI connection support distances up 150km) will continue to dominate long-distance applications. However, metro and long-distance category CAGR will reach 51.5% and 24.6%.

During 2014 to 2019, especially in North America will continue to lead the Americas DCI fiber sales. DCI markets in Europe, Middle East and Africa and the Asia-Pacific region has grown rapidly in the past few years, but still only half the American market.

According to ACG, on the platform types, most optical fiber DCI deployed using a multi-slot chassis products. However, a big wave SFF-like platforms, such as Infinera's Cloud Xpress, Ciena's Waveserver, ADVA Optical Networking's FSP3000 Cloudconnect and 1FINITY T100 have been or are being paved the way to market Fujitsu.

Infinera's latest 100G DCI equipment to win Singapore's A*STAR deployment

Infinera has announced its Cloud Xpress DCI Interconnect won the National Super Computer Center in Singapore NSCC and Science and Technology Bureau of A*STAR research park is located between the deployment of Biopolis and Fusionopolis. This is the new 100Gbps Cloud Xpress Infinera equipment for the first time publicly announced orders.

A*STAR is a public research institution, with biomedical and physics research center in Biopolis and Fusionopolis 18 other places. Its network to more than 800 scientific users provide supercomputing resources.

Infinera express, A*STAR select Cloud Xpress equipment mainly for its installation density, ease of operation and low power consumption advantages. Its aim is 2RU size metro zone applications market.
