FRAMINGHAM, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–A recent International Data Corporation (IDC) study shows that the worldwide application deployment software market grew 2.2% to $14.9 billion in 2009. The decline in the growth rate was steep compared with 9.7% growth in 2008 and 16.5% growth in 2007. However, with the severe impact on IT spending caused by the economic crisis through 2009, the fact that this market grew at all was counter-cyclical.

“Several factors will lead to accelerating growth in middleware over the next couple of years. Those include increasing investments to improve near-real-time business responsiveness, improve process efficiency, and improve levels of integration, particularly to connect and exchange external data from business partners and cloud services with datacenter-based applications”
“Several factors will lead to accelerating growth in middleware over the next couple of years. Those include increasing investments to improve near-real-time business responsiveness, improve process efficiency, and improve levels of integration, particularly to connect and exchange external data from business partners and cloud services with datacenter-based applications,” according to Maureen Fleming, program director, Business Process Management and Middleware.

Additional findings from this study include:

The top three vendors in 2009 accounted for 52.5% of market revenue. IBM was the largest middleware vendor, while Oracle and Microsoft were the next two largest vendors.
The fastest-growing larger vendor (over $100 million in revenue) was business process management software provider Pegasystems. Appian and Lombardi Software, which was acquired by IBM in January 2009, also grew in the middle double digits.
Perhaps, the most notable growth was VMware’s, which acquired SpringSource in 2009. Since the acquisition, the SpringSource middleware portfolio grew 100% to $18 million in 2009.
At 8.2% growth, Asia/Pacific was the fastest-growing region. It accounted for 14.5% share of the market. The largest region was the Americas, at $7.7 billion in revenue and 3.9% growth.
The IDC study, Worldwide Application Deployment Software 2009 Vendor Shares (IDC #223504) examines the application deployment software market and submarkets for 2005–2009. Revenue for 2007–2009 and 2009 market share of the leading vendors are also provided.
