According to 650 Group’s recently published report, in 4Q21, revenues of the Application Delivery Controller (ADC) market were 2% greater than the year-ago quarter. For the full year, the market grew modestly. Over the last four quarters, the market has consistently grown on a Y/Y basis. Our report also includes an updated long-term ADC forecast.
The top 5 vendors in the quarter (ranked by revenue size in the report) were the following:
F5 – declined Y/Y
Citrix – declined Y/Y
Radware – grew Y/Y
A10 – grew Y/Y
Kemp – grew Y/Y
On a regional basis, Greater China had the strongest Y/Y growth and on a Q/Q basis. In January, Vista Equity Partners and Evergreen Coast Capital announced their plans to acquire Citrix for $16.5B. We expect the deal will impact Citrix’s installed base while they evaluate the impact of the deal.
Regional revenue performance in the quarter for the largest four regions was as follows:
— North America – declined Y/Y
— Europe – declined Y/Y
— Asia Pacific (excluding China) – declined Y/Y
— Middle East and Africa – declined Y/Y
The ADC report breaks out over five vendors and includes detailed segmentation, forecasting, and market shares. Please contact us for press inquiries and further report information.
