Arista, Juniper, Star-Net Ruijie Outpaced Market in 2Q 2021
REDWOOD CITY, Calif. – September 16, 2021 – According to a recent report by Dell’Oro Group, the trusted source for information about the telecommunications, networks, and data center IT industries, global Data Center Switch revenue were up 7 percent year-over-year in 2Q 2021, marking the second consecutive quarter of revenue growth. Arista, Juniper, Star-Net Ruijie outpaced the market and were able to gain revenue share during the quarter.
“It is encouraging to see the robust sales performance being broad-based across all major regions, and customer segments: Cloud Service Providers (SPs), Telco SPs, and Large Enterprises,” said Sameh Boujelbene, Senior Research Director at Dell’Oro Group. “Nevertheless, despite these strong results, it is important to note that demand outpaced supply and that sales would have been even stronger had the global semi-conductor industry not been constrained. We expect demand to remain robust in 2H21 but further tightening in the supply chain may hinder market performance,” added Boujelbene.
Additional highlights from the 2Q 2021 Ethernet Switch – Data Center Report:
- H3C climbed to the leading position in China in 2Q 2021
- Stockpiling behavior from some Cloud SPs resulted in share shifts in the 100 Gbps segment.
- Interest in 400 Gbps from enterprises and small Cloud SPs is slowing down but major hyperscalers are still on track for accelerated adoption in 2H21.
