Introduction
Simulation or testing is the process of designing a model of an actual or a theoretical physical system to represent important aspects of the real world. These software helps to predict the behaviour of a system, which can be used to evaluate a new design, diagnose problem with existing designs, and test a system under conditions that are difficult to replicate in reality. Simulation or test data management software effectively manage data and process information that has been generated from simulation and test software, which offers benefits such as faster time-to-market, better use of information, lowers development costs and increases collaboration within an organization.
FMI forecasts the simulation and test data management market to grow at 12.5% CAGR during the forecast period 2016-2026, and is expected to reach US$ 480.6 Mn in terms of revenues by 2026 end. Software segment is estimated to hold the largest share among the components segment, accounting or US$ 354.7 Mn by 2026, up from US$ 108.8 Mn in 2016.
Increasing demand for data management software to protect against loss of data generated is one of the main drivers of simulation and test data management market
The simulation and test data management market is anticipated to witness a significant revenue growth during the forecast period, owing to increasing demand for data management software to protect against loss of data generated from simulation and test software, increasing efforts to reduce time-to-market company's product and need to manage and analyse data generated from simulation and test data management software etc. Moreover, demand from verticals such as automotive, aerospace & defence etc. is expected to increase as simulation and testing software are already used on wide scale in these verticals and thus there is a greater need to have a data management software.
High development costs associated with simulation and test data management software, coupled with a long recovery period are the major challenges faced by simulation and test data management market. Transferring large amount of data from simulation and test data management software to computers can be a time consuming process, which is another challenge for the adoption of this technology.
