Network management has never been easy, and the proliferation of IoT devices, the shift to remote work, and the migration of applications to multi-cloud environments have added new levels of complexity to enterprise networks.
IT execs are dealing with network management tool sprawl and employee skills gaps. They are also struggling to gain visibility across increasingly distributed networks, including SaaS instances that are not under their direct control.
Even the terminology is evolving. Terms like network monitoring or network management are being replaced with buzzwords like network observability or unified observability, according to a latest report from Enterprise Management Associates (EMA.)
Whatever wording is used to describe modern network management, there is agreement on what such a platform should include. On the basic networking level, the system needs to have the capability to ingest data from logs, traces, events and other metrics in order to troubleshoot problems, prevent outages from occurring in the future, and optimize network performance through automation.
Moving up the stack, management platforms should also provide application performance management (APM), and insight into the customer/user experience, known as digital experience management (DEM). Observability platforms are also extending into DevOps (NetDevOps), they share data with security teams for incident response and vulnerability management, and they leverage artificial intelligence (AIOps).
A single platform that does it all probably doesn’t exist. But we’ve identified 10 leading vendors that are working hard to get there. This subjective list is weighted heavily in favor of vendors with broad platforms, rather than point products, and with vendors that have demonstrated an intention to aggressively expand their portfolio of capabilities rather than stand pat in a particular niche.
Why they’re here: From its purchase of network management vendor Tivoli Systems in 1996 to its acquisition of APM innovator Instana in 2020, IBM has maintained its position as a power player in the management of networks, mainframe/server infrastructure, applications, and cloud-based assets. As one might expect from IBM, there are a raft of product lines: Legacy Tivoli systems have been re-branded and updated, products have been added through acquisition (SevOne for network performance management, QRadar for network security management). And IBM has developed new offerings internally, such as IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps.
Power moves: Bought Turbonomic, an application resource management (ARM) and network performance management (NPM) software provider.
By the numbers: $1.5 billion: Exact numbers weren’t released, but it was reported that IBM paid between $1.5 billion and $2 billion for Turbonomic.
Outlook: IBM wants to provide customers with AI-based automation that spans AIOps, application performance and IT resource observability built on its Red Hat OpenShift cloud platform and delivered either as a product or managed service. The challenge will be merging the Turbonomic and Instana acquisitions into a seamless, hybrid-cloud management architecture that extends from data center mainframes to cloud-based containers.
Why they’re here: When you’re the market leader in routers, switches, firewalls, wireless access points and SD-WAN devices, and the technology trend is to decouple hardware from an overlay management plane, it’s only natural that you would dive headlong into management. Under the DNA Center umbrella, Cisco offers automated network operations, AIOps, DevOps, SecOps and customer experience monitoring. Cisco is also attempting to achieve full-stack observability through acquisition.
Power moves: Bought ThousandEyes for agent-based network performance optimization and AppDynamics for APM.
By the numbers: $1 billion. Amount that Cisco paid for ThousandEyes.
Outlook: Cisco has so much going on that sometimes it’s hard to keep track of it all. Cisco is committed to software-defined networking, intent-based networking, and now it’s pushing something called predictive networking. There’s a management offering for IoT, another for wireless. Gartner cautions, “Cisco’s ‘Full Stack Observability’ vision promises a unified experience for monitoring across AppDynamics, ThousandEyes and Intersight (a cloud operations platform). However, the products currently remain only loosely integrated, lacking a common installation, user experience or data platform.” For Cisco, the challenge is to continue to drive intelligence and automation throughout its vast product portfolio and to make sure its offerings are integrated across on-prem and cloud environments.
Why they’re here: Founded in 1980 to provide management software for IBM mainframes, the BMC of today is a privately held company focused on helping enterprises manage and automate complex IT operations across hybrid cloud environments. Forrester Research says the BMC Helix platform offers IT service management (ITSM), IT operations management (ITOM), enterprise service management (ESM), self-service portals for users, AI chatbots, and intelligent and predictive automation. It also integrates with multi-cloud environments “for powerful business automations while enabling IT and DevOps to work seamlessly instead of in silos.” And, of course, it supports self-managing mainframes through its Automated Mainframe Intelligence product line.
Power moves: Bought StreamWeaver to bolster its observability, AIOps and cloud migration capabilities.
By the numbers: BMC works with 86% of the Forbes Global 50.
Outlook: BMC bills itself as the company that can help its customers become "autonomous digital enterprises." Its management software spans the mainframe to Docker containers in the cloud. BMC Helix ServiceOps brings service and operations management together to protect against outages, identify performance issues, perform root cause analysis, and personalize the employee and customer experience. IDC analyst Stephen Elliot says ServiceOps is the wave of the future because it breaks down silos, so that "cross-departmental teams can deliver highly effective, incident-free services across their cloud technologies."
Why they’re here: If Broadcom can successfully integrate the management tools acquired in the purchases of CA Technologies in 2018 (network and infrastructure monitoring and AIOps) and AppNeta in 2021 (SaaS-based network performance monitoring and digital experience management) with its impending VMware acquisition, Broadcom could become a multi-cloud management powerhouse.
Power moves: Bought virtualization pioneer VMware.
By the numbers: $61 billion: The amount Broadcom agreed to pay for VMware.
Outlook: Broadcom’s plan, once the VMware acquisition officially closes in late 2023, will be to shift its current portfolio of software assets into a VMware branded division. Addressing customer concerns about Broadcom’s intentions, president and CEO Hock Tan said recently, “VMware develops technology for the future and addresses a growing market. The Broadcom business case for this transaction is premised on focusing on increasing R&D, and executing so that customers see the value of the full portfolio of innovative product offerings — not on increasing prices.” For its part, VMware has a broad portfolio of software tools that span Tanzu for cloud-native application development, NSX for managing virtualized workloads, and a new cloud-native management service named Aria. So, for Broadcom the vision is there. It will all come down to execution.
Why they’re here: A perennial leader in Gartner’s rankings of SIEM vendors, Splunk has leveraged its ability to aggregate and analyze large amounts of data to become an observability platform power player. GigaOm says, “Splunk is a full-stack, multi-cloud, integrated enterprise solution that brings together infrastructure monitoring, application performance monitoring, digital experience monitoring, real user monitoring, synthetics, log investigation, AIOps, and incident response.”
Power moves: Splunk has been on a buying spree. Over the past couple of years, it has filled out its observability platform with the acquisitions of SignalFx, Omnition, Plumbr, Rigor, Flowmill and TwinWave Security. (It should also be noted that there have been persistent rumors that Cisco is trying to buy Splunk. However, that potential power move has yet to materialize.)
By the numbers: $1.05 billion: Amount Splunk paid for SignalFx.
Outlook: After several quarters of sputtering growth, Splunk brought in a new CEO in April 2022: Gary Steele, former CEO of Proofpoint. The move seems to have jumpstarted the company, because Splunk reported revenues of $799 million in its fiscal second quarter of 2023, a 32% year-over-year increase. Pund-IT analyst Charles King is bullish on Steele. “Not only has he founded and led successful startup companies, but Steele also has a substantial history of delivering the financial and leadership goods as a C-level executive. In other words, he’s likely to understand and value Splunk’s culture while also providing the business acumen the company needs to evolve and move into new markets.”
Why they’re here: When your brand is associated with one of the worst cyberattacks in history, that’s a lot to overcome. But SolarWinds was open and transparent during and after the infamous 2020 hack, and it appears to have weathered the storm. Revenues have stabilized, and the company is shipping new products and offering new cloud-based services to its massive installed base. SolarWinds was recognized as a leader by analyst firm GigaOm in its 2022 evaluation of network observability and cloud observability solutions.
Power moves: Launched a cloud-native, IT-management service called Observability that is also available for hybrid-cloud environments. Powered by machine learning, the service provides an integrated view of network, infrastructure, application, and database systems.
By the numbers: $179 million: Prior to the news of the hack coming out in late 2020, SolarWinds had consistent quarterly revenues in the $250 million range. After the hack, revenues levelled off closer to $180 million. Q3 2022 revenues were $179 million, down 1% from Q3 2021.
Outlook: SolarWinds had some issues to resolve even before the hack. Its products were somewhat siloed, and the focus was primarily on-prem rather than the cloud. But the company seems to have recognized its weaknesses and has taken concrete steps in the right direction. “We’re laying the foundation for autonomous operations through both monitoring and observability solutions,” said SolarWinds chief product officer Rohini Kasturi. “With our Hybrid Cloud Observability and SolarWinds Observability offerings, customers have ultimate flexibility to deploy on a private cloud, public cloud, or as a service.” Observability is an important step forward for SolarWinds, according to Gartner analyst Gregg Siegfried. “Bottom line is that they’ve been bleeding share as people move into the cloud,” adds Siegfried. The new Observability service “provides a migration path” for customers who need to extend their IT management capabilities to the cloud, he adds.
Why they’re here: One of the new breed of cloud-native observability vendors, Dynatrace offers infrastructure monitoring, APM, application security, digital experience management (DEM), business analytics and cloud automation on a platform powered by its Davis AI engine. Research firm ISG named Dynatrace a leader in cloud-native observability and cloud-native security. And Gartner puts Dynatrace in the leadership category for APM.
By the numbers: 30%: Dynatrace reported second quarter fiscal 2023 revenue of $279 million, up 30%.
Power moves: Launched a new data analytics feature called Grail that promises unified observability, security, and business data analysis.
Outlook: Dynatrace says it exists “to make the world’s software work perfectly.” While perfection might not be achievable, Dynatrace is getting Good Marks for its cloud-native, AI-powered approach. Mark Purdy, principal analyst at ISG, says, “Quite simply, Dynatrace does it all in terms of observability and is particularly powerful with containerized applications. World-class AI and automation capabilities make the Dynatrace platform a clear leader.” Gartner adds, “Dynatrace’s roadmap includes extending the analytics capabilities of its Davis AI engine to new data sources, including expanded OpenTelemetry analytics, and further expanding its presence in cloud provider marketplaces, such as AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).”
Why they’re here: Datadog started out as a monitoring and security service for cloud applications and has been methodically filling out its portfolio to become a platform targeting enterprises launching digital transformation initiatives and migrating apps to the cloud. Datadog offers infrastructure monitoring, APM, device monitoring, cloud workload monitoring, and database monitoring. Gartner ranks Datadog as a leader in its latest evaluation of Application Performance Monitoring and Observability.

It's tough in the current economic climate to hire and retain engineers focused on system admin, DevOps and network architecture. In a latest Gartner survey, IT executives cited talent shortages as the top barrier to adopting emerging technologies. Unfortunately for execs, at the same time recruiting is posing a major challenge, IT infrastructure is becoming more costly to maintain. Business monitoring company Anodot reports that nearly half of corporations are finding it difficult to get cloud costs alone under control.
Aiming to overcome some of the blockers to success in IT, Lucas Roh co-founded MetalSoft, a startup that provides "bare metal" automation software for managing on-premises data centers and multi-vendor equipment. MetalSoft allows companies to automate the orchestration of hardware, including switches, servers and storage, making them available to users that can be consumed on-demand.
MetalSoft spun out from Hostway, a cloud hosting provider headquartered in Chicago. Hostway developed software to power cloud service provider hardware, which went into production in 2014. In 2019, the software spun out as a separate company -- MetalSoft -- with the goal of broadening its capabilities to service additional service providers and enterprises.
"We provide a turnkey solution to service providers to offer ... cloud services," Roh told TechCrunch in an email interview. "We're differentiated from others in that we automate and manage the full stack [of infrastructure], including switches, servers, storage and networking as well as cloud enablement."
So how does that solve the talent shortage and cost overruns in tech? Well, Roh -- who previously helped to launched cloud provider Bigstep and the aforementioned Hostway -- asserts that MetalSoft's software can eliminate many of the problems associated with hardware silos, reducing the complexity of managing them to the point where non-technical consumers can build their own infrastructure. By allowing customers to pull workloads back from the cloud and run them in-house if they so wish, MetalSoft can bring down IT costs while offering a higher level of control, including security posture, Roh argues.
For instance, MetalSoft can automatically deploy and configure operating systems and firmware upgrades while discovering running hardware on a network. It also can auto-configure storage volumes and storage-related system network settings, generating a visual blueprint that captures a company's infrastructure, including servers, storage and networking.
Roh says that MetalSoft's targeting both enterprises that have their own equipment (for example, in a data center or co-location facility) as well as cloud service providers that want to offer "bare metal as a service" or "private cloud as a service" products to their customers (think a provider deploying infrastructure to a client's on-premises server room). It's early days -- MetalSoft landed its first customers last year, and the company isn't talking revenue or operating cash flow at the moment -- but Roh claims that MetalSoft's solution is beginning to gain traction in the marketplace.
"We have some major enterprise customers with hundreds of thousands of devices that we are not revealing but include a major telco and major data center and cloud service providers, and have a strong partnership with major OEM," Roh said. "In the past couple of years, we’ve especially focused on adding many enterprise features and support for more hardware vendors."
While MetalSoft competes with heavyweights like Cisco and OpenStack, it's likely to benefit from the latest uptick in investment in on-premises infrastructure. During the past year, 30% of organizations moved workloads or data from the public cloud back to a private cloud or on-premises or colocation facility, according to a report from the Uptime Institute. Their primary reasons were cost, regulatory compliance, performance issues and perceived concerns over security, the report said.
"We help reduce the cost of IT and we have become even more important in a more stringent spending environment ... Our software can help reduce the technical labor requirements while significantly reducing cost while delivering the full functionality to their end-users." Roh said. "After the spinout [from Hostway], we continue improving our product, especially in terms of the enterprise features that customers need."
MetalSoft, which has around 40 employees, has raised $17 million in venture capital to date; $16 million came from its Series A that closed this week, led by DNS Capital. Roh says that the proceeds will be put toward growing MetalSoft's sales and marketing functions and product development.
"We have done quite a bit of work on AI and machine learning that’s not yet part of our software stack," Roh added. "We are currently working to incorporate AI and machine learning to intelligently manage and monitor bare metal hardware. We’ll be excited to introduce that product the second half of next year."

French writer Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr famously wrote: "Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose."
Translation: The more things change, the more they stay the same. In healthcare IT, that's never been more true than right now. Outsourcing services have been somewhat frowned upon in healthcare IT. From maintaining servers and software to application configuration, providing tech support and more, outsourcing has countless applications. While many organizations don't publicly promote outsourcing, it's a big business; iHealthcareAnalyst estimates the global market will reach $64 billion by 2027.
Like so many things, technology trends tend to repeat themselves. After 30 years in the industry, I can safely say I've seen my share of game changers and flops reemerge. IT outsourcing is one that has straddled both lines, but it doesn't necessarily fall into the "yea" or "nay" bucket. Instead, outsourcing reappears at somewhat regular intervals—picking up steam, sparking debate and gaining in relevance (just like it is now)—and with good reason.
With 53% of hospitals expecting to lose money this year, outsourcing IT can feel like a quick-hit solution, with promises of double-digit cost savings for many organizations. It can also be a potential resource-saver, often needed for tried and understaffed teams. When IT leaders outsource, they don't have to worry about the time and costs associated with hiring and training in-house staff. They can also free themselves from the seemingly endless cycles of maintaining and updating software and equipment. When executives aren't spending all of their time dealing with IT issues, they can spend it on long-term strategy, patient outcomes and employee engagement.
Outsourcing can also give IT executives access to expertise that they might not have in-house. The healthcare industry has unique requirements, and different types of businesses operate in the sector. Tapping a company that specializes in these often-niche IT services can ensure more tailored solutions that are delivered efficiently and effectively. This can be game-changing for IT leaders that need help with complex projects or ongoing support for more immersive systems.
Outsourcing work to industry experts can also help healthcare executives ensure that their infrastructure and information meet regulatory requirements. It can be difficult for growing organizations with limited resources to manage the technological infrastructure while meeting multiple complex regulatory requirements.
Saving money, freeing up time, getting access to expert help—when looking at the perks of IT outsourcing, it's understandable why it keeps orbiting back. Like any trend, however, IT outsourcing has its limitations. Without the right framework, it can be borderline disastrous (especially if organizations don't learn from their mistakes).
That, I believe, is one of the biggest hurdles to successful IT outsourcing. Many companies give it a half-hearted shot and, not surprisingly, have a less-than-positive experience. They lick their wounds but never dig into what really went wrong. Then, when the IT outsourcing trends again, they dive in—and likely hit the same bumps in the road.
By taking the time to assess previous outsourcing attempts and apply those learnings to "round two," healthcare leaders can create a more seamless outsourcing journey and avoid repeating yesterday's mistakes.
Early in my career, I remember hearing "that's been done before" over and over. Looking back, I was good at dismissing most of those comments. I was convinced that even if it had been done before, we could take a different path forward and be more successful as a result. I probably owe a few people an apology because, although having done something before is not a reason not to try again, I should have learned more about the lessons from previous attempts. Now, I try to take my learnings to help others avoid a few mistakes.
Back to what's trending: healthcare IT outsourcing. If your organization is considering outsourcing its technology needs, here are a few things to keep in mind:
• Make sure you have a clear understanding of what you're trying to achieve. What are your goals and objectives? What are your expectations? Be realistic about what you can achieve with outsourcing.
• While some types of outsourcing can be very transactional, other functions are key to meeting your organization's goals. For complex functions, ensure the firm you are partnering with is taking the time to understand your organizational needs.
• Tackle challenging internal barriers such as governance and personal or process issues before or in conjunction with outsourcing. Simply moving the systemic organization issues to an outside company will not solve your issues.
• Outsourcing can be a great way to deepen resources at a lower cost, but it does require more discipline on scope and priorities than most in-house IT teams require today.
• Do not wholesale outsource your entire IT organization. Outsourcing works best when you need to increase the depth of talent, need hard-to-find skills, and need to handle routine tasks and standard maintenance that are ubiquitous across the industry. Effective IT teams that are part of core operations are a key part of the special sauce all healthcare organizations need.
Emerging technologies are advancing at a rapid pace. However, the level of expertise needed to maintain and operate them within healthcare settings isn't. To address this challenge, more and more healthcare organizations are looking beyond their in-house capabilities for new ways to add resources, cut costs and manage their IT more effectively. For many organizations, this means turning to technology outsourcing.
Outsourcing can be a great way for an organization to find specialized talent while making the most out of its technology budget. However, IT leaders must do their research and choose a partner that has experience with healthcare technology. Otherwise, money could be wasted on a service that doesn't meet an organization's needs. With the right approach and guidance, it can be a positive, pain-free experience.

Artificial intelligence is taking over almost every industry. The investment and finance industry is no exception. In Deloitte's 2019 report, the firm reveals that AI is transforming the financial ecosystem to reduce costs and make operations more efficient by providing automated insights and alternative data, analysis and risk management.
Technology such as AI has digitized the finance sector, ranging from payments and remittances to lending. However, asset management is still in the nascent stage of digitization, according to the chief strategy officer and co-founder of Akros Technologies, Jin Chung.
Akros Technologies wants to disrupt the current asset management industry via its AI-driven asset management software platform that mines market data for stocks. Akros just raised $2.3 million from Z Venture Capital, the corporate venture capital wholly owned by Z Holdings, which also owns the Japanese messaging app Line and internet portal Yahoo Japan.
Akros intends to strengthen strategic ties with Z Holdings via strategic investment, the startup said. The latest funding, which brings Akros's total amount raised to $6.1 million since its 2021 inception, will help Akros to scale its software platform and asset management products and ramp up its users, including local and global financial institutions and fintech companies.
The outfit is already in discussions with potential partners to expand its AI-powered product called portfolio management as a service, or PMaaS, an all-in-one operating system for portfolio management. Chung explained to TechCrunch that PMaaS "enables B2B clients such as financial institutions, fintech startups and robot-advisors to launch their own exchange-traded funds (ETFs) without having to set up ETF teams and infrastructure."
He added that it expects to secure more than five B2B clients in the first quarter of 2023.
The startup claims that its AI-powered portfolio management platform can reduce "the overall cost structure [of] the traditional fund development," including management fees and unnecessary fees involved in the investment process, by more than 80%. The outfit aims to maximize the finance management performance of data-driven ETFs and offer a portfolio management solution via the PMaaS for Akros's users to help them compete with global ETF institutions like Vanguard or JPMorgan.
In August, Contents Technologies launched Korean pop music, also known as K-pop, and Korea Entertainment ETF, on the NYSE Arca Exchange under the ticker KPOP, using Akros's PMaaS solution to develop the ETFs. In addition, Akros listed an AI-driven target income ETF, called Akros Monthly Payout ETF (ticker: MPAY), on the NYSE in May with monthly distributions at an annualized target rate of 7%, according to the startup.
To build a slew of investment strategies that lower the cost of portfolio modeling and generate scores of investment portfolios, Akros applies a generative AI model based on a decision transformer, which predicts future actions through the sequencing model, Chung said, adding the company also employs GPT-3 natural language processing (NLP) to analyze unstructured language data.
Akros plans continuously to enhance its engineering technology by bolstering its business to disrupt the asset management market and attract new partners across the globe, including Japan, Singapore and the U.S., co-founder and chief executive officer Kyle Moon said in a statement.
Founded by CEO Moon, CSO Jin and chief marketing officer Justin Gim, Akros employs seven people.

Moon previously worked for Qraft Technologies as head of AI research and CSO and had experience listing four ETFs on NYSE. Before co-founding Akros, Gim had more than nine years of experience in the asset management industry; Chung did research work for Bayesian deep learning in autonomous driving cars at Oxford Robotics Institute.
In March, Akros raised $3.75 million in funding from PeopleFund, a South Korean peer-to-peer lending platform. The company declined to provide its valuation when asked.
The RCMP has suspended a controversial contract it had awarded to a Canadian company whose parent organization has ties to the Chinese government, CTV News has confirmed.
Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino’s office told CTV News on Thursday that the contract the RCMP inked in October 2021, worth $549,637, with Ontario-based Sinclair Technologies Inc. for radio frequency filters, is now on pause.
Earlier in the day, Mendicino told reporters that the RCMP was "looking very carefully" at the equipment that was installed and going forward there is more rigorous screening when contracts are awarded that may have national security implications.
"Obviously if there were any concerns or if there was any flaws in this process around the contract, then there should be very quick and immediate steps taken to suspend or cancel the contract altogether," he said.
After this contract came to light, the RCMP said the national police force's radio communications were protected with end-to-end encryption and that radio frequency filtration equipment "poses no security concerns nor does it allow access to radio communications."
"The contract was awarded in accordance with Federal Government procurement policies and regulations, and in accordance with the Trade Agreements," the RCMP said on Wednesday.
In a previous statement to CTV News, Sinclair said it is a trusted and independent company. It cited privacy reasons for being unable to comment further.
The RCMP contract is not the only one the federal government has awarded to Sinclair Technologies.
CTV News has found a number of other contracts, worth upwards of $90,000 each, since Sinclair’s parent company Norsat was bought in 2017 by Hytera, which is partially owned by the Chinese government. The contracts included those with the RCMP, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and the Department of National Defence.
Hytera's products are banned from being sold or imported in the United States over national security concerns.
On Thursday, the Department of National Defence said it was aware of the concerns surrounding Sinclair Technologies and was "investigating these procurements and the way in which this equipment is used, alongside counterparts in other government departments."
"The government will take all measures necessary to ensure the security of our infrastructure," said the department in a statement.
For the second day in a row, the issue prompted a series of questions to the federal government in the House of Commons.
On her way into question period, Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly—who recently rolled out a new Indo-Pacific Strategy signalling a tougher stance on China—said the "independent public service" should "never" have signed these contracts.
"We needed to put a national lens on our contracts and our decision-making. This is the position of the government going forward," Joly said.

The global infrastructure inspection market is expected to grow from $1.81 billion in 2021 to $1.97 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, effecting manyevery markets across the globe. The infrastructure inspection market is expected to grow to $2.77 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 8.9%.
The infrastructure inspection market consists of sales of infrastructure inspection by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that are used in analysing and monitoring tools that help to analyse the state of the infrastructure.Infrastructure inspection refers to the technology that involves collecting and assessing meaningful data about the infrastructure.
Infrastructure inspections can include bridges, pipelines, power grids, and other facilities that are essential to the use and safety of structures.
The main types of infrastructure inspection are drones, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), crawlers, and submersibles.A crawler refers to a programme that visits Web sites and reads their pages and other information in order to create entries for a search engine index.
The operations are autonomous or semi-autonomous.The various applications involved pipes, tanks and vessels, sewers, roads and bridges, underwater inspection, wind turbines, nuclear applications, and auxiliary structures.
The various end-users included building and construction, oil and gas, power generation, chemicals, petrochemicals, municipal, and general purpose.
North America was the largest region in the infrastructure inspection market in 2021. The regions covered in this infrastructure inspection market report are Asia-Pacific, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, North America, South America, Middle East, and Africa.
The surge in capital investments for structural health monitoring to ensure better maintenance of critical infrastructure is expected to propel the growth of the infrastructure inspection market going forward.Structural health monitoring (SHM) is a set of systems that are installed on full-scale civil infrastructures to assist and inform operators.
To ensure structural integrity, ageing bridges, highways, buildings, dams, pylons, tunnels, and other structures are inspected.For instance, in March 2022, according to a report by Govtribe, a US-based company that focuses on government contractors and provides a real-time resource locator, the Federal Government granted the opportunity to Engineer Research and Development Centre (ERDC) for innovative technologies in structural health monitoring to advance structural health monitoring (SHM) technologies and assess the current and future condition and reliability of infrastructure components and systems.
The first year was allocated $2 million, with a total budget of $12 million. Therefore, the surge in capital investments for structural health monitoring is driving the growth of the infrastructure inspection market.
Technological advancement is a key trend gaining popularity in the infrastructure inspection market.Major companies operating in the infrastructure inspection market are focused on developing new technological solutions to strengthen their position.
For instance, in May 2022, Toshiba, a Japan-based company operating in infrastructure inspection, develops Infrastructure Inspection AI for detecting anomalies with unprecedented accuracy from a small number of reference images.Instead of requiring real-world training like traditional AI, the technology compares inspection shots against reference images using features from pre-trained deep learning models.
The new AI would detect anomalies with high accuracy even when inspection photos are taken from different perspectives than in the reference images because of Toshiba’s proprietary rectification technology. This technology also helps to reduce false positives for unusual patterns that are truly normal.
In July 2022, DroneBase, a US-based leader in intelligent imaging, acquired U.K.-based Inspection for an undisclosed amount. DroneBase’s acquisition of Inspection2 expands DroneBase’s AI-enabled inspection capabilities across telecom and transmission and distribution, creating a complete offering for owners, operators, and investors in renewable energy infrastructure and systems. Inspection2 is a UK-based company operating in infrastructure inspection.
