2026 Global: Capacity Management Market-Competitive Review (2032) report
Description
The 2026 Global: Capacity Management Market-Competitive Review (2031) report features the global market size and projected growth/decline data for the period 2021 through 2032. The report primarily provides an examination of the business strategies for the ten largest global companies in the market and how their strategies differ.
Perry/Hope Partners' reports provide the most accurate industry forecasts based on our proprietary economic models. Our forecasts project the product market size nationally and by regions for 2021 to 2032 using regression analysis in our modeling. and Perry/Hope is the only market research publisher that utilizes both longitudinal (historical) and vertical (from market section to market division to market class) analysis, since we study every manufactured product in the countries we analyze. The report also provides written analysis on the market definition, market segments, and SWOT analysis (market strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats).
The market study aims at estimating the market size and the growth potential of this market. Topics analyzed within the report include a detailed breakdown of the global markets for capacity management market by geography and historical trend. The scope of the report extends to sizing of the capacity management market market and global market trends with market data for 2024 as the base year, 2025 and 2026 as the estimate years with projection of CAGR from 2027 to 2032.
The report also features a list of the top ten largest global players in the market. A review of each company includes 1) an estimate of the market share, 2) a listing of the products and/or services in the market, and 3) the features of these products and/or services in the market. The report has a chapter on Comparative Business Strategies for the largest four players. An example of the Comparative Business Strategies analysis would be -- How does Netflix's business strategy to expand its market share in the global online streaming compare to Amazon Prime's business strategy through its video products and services?
The ten market players in this report and a brief synopsis of their participation in the market are:
IBM, Broadcom (CA Technologies), Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), VMware, NetApp, BMC Software, Riverbed Technology, Turbonomic, SolarWinds, and ManageEngine are widely cited among the leading vendors in the capacity management market, each offering distinct strengths across infrastructure monitoring, analytics, cloud optimization, and enterprise capacity planning. IBM provides enterprise-class capacity analytics and hybrid-cloud resource planning that integrate mainframe, cloud, and on‑premises telemetry for large organizations. Broadcom’s CA Technologies (now part of Broadcom) positions legacy capacity management capabilities tied to IT operations suites and mainframe tooling, serving enterprises requiring deep systems integration and established process workflows. HPE combines infrastructure hardware visibility with capacity planning and predictive analytics, targeting data center and hybrid-cloud environments where correlation between physical assets and utilization drives procurement and consolidation decisions. VMware emphasizes virtualized and cloud capacity management through vSphere-integrated tools and Tanzu-era observability, enabling workload placement, rightsizing, and cluster-level forecasting for virtual environments.
NetApp and BMC Software focus on storage- and service-centric capacity use cases respectively, with NetApp delivering storage performance and capacity analytics for SAN/NAS and cloud-tiering strategies while BMC offers service-aware capacity management that maps infrastructure consumption to business services and SLAs. Riverbed addresses network- and application-level capacity, blending WAN optimization telemetry with end-to-end flow analysis to identify bottlenecks and capacity shifts across distributed environments. Turbonomic (now part of IBM as of prior acquisitions but still referenced distinctly in market reports) provides application-resource demand modeling and automated actions for cloud and container platforms, using real-time analytics to enforce supply-demand equilibrium and reduce overprovisioning. SolarWinds supplies accessible, agent-based monitoring and capacity reporting for midmarket enterprises, emphasizing simplicity and rapid deployment for network, server, and storage capacity trending. ManageEngine (Zoho’s IT management division) targets SMBs and distributed teams with integrated ITOM suites that include capacity planning, forecasting, and threshold-based alerting across on‑prem and cloud resources.
Collectively these vendors address complementary segments of the capacity management value chain—ranging from low‑touch monitoring and historical trending (SolarWinds, ManageEngine) to predictive analytics and automated remediation (Turbonomic, VMware, IBM)—and from hardware/storage-focused optimization (NetApp, HPE) to service- and business-oriented capacity governance (BMC, Broadcom/CA) that aligns IT resources with SLAs and cost objectives. Market research firms report a rapidly growing market driven by hybrid cloud adoption, containerization, and the need to control cloud spend, with reports listing IBM, Broadcom, NetApp, HPE, VMware and BMC among the most frequently cited leaders across capacity management and capacity analytics studies. Variations in vendor rankings between reports reflect differences in scope (capacity analytics vs. broader capacity management), target customer segments, and the relative weight given to automation, cloud-native support, and legacy systems integration in each analysis.
