Study: BEA Leads Application Server Software Market In India




Independent analyst group – IDC, has identified BEA Systems as the clear leader in India’s application server software market with a market share of 30 per cent.

Shailender Kumar, Country Head, BEA Systems remarked, “We are delighted with the outcome of the report as it re-emphasises the strength of our technologies, particularly in a key domain such as application server software. India has tremendous opportunity for BEA and we have been doubling our growth year on year. Customers are recognising the need to invest in Service Oriented Architecture and our increased market share just re-iterates that fact.”

An application server is a software engine that delivers applications to client computers or devices. These highly specialized servers make the process of application development easier, since applications can be assembled from building blocks provided by the application server.

IDC views the application server as a base infrastructure for a range of "higher-level" products including integration; Business Process Management; enterprise portals and Web services, are all key components of middleware as a segment. Over the last few years, the middleware market in India has grown in prominence and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) has risen to the forefront as a rallying point for deployment in the space. According to Springboard Research, India is poised to be the fastest growing SOA market in Asia and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 49 per cent from 2006-09. The research also mentioned that Indian companies have one of the highest awareness levels of SOA and its benefits in the region.

BEA's SOA strategy is based on the notion of helping customers achieve Liquid Enterprise by delivering the industry's most unified SOA platform, BEA Enterprise 360°, which is designed to enable business transformation and optimisation. BEA Enterprise 360° platform spans all three BEA product families – Tuxedo, WebLogic and AquaLogic – and is supported by the newly previewed SOA collaborative tooling environment, BEA WorkSpace 360°.
