The spread of a pandemic has rapidly increased the use of new and existing technologies. As consumers continue to lock down, millions of people are forced to adopt work from home policies, which has resulted in increasing demand for cloud computing technologies.

The closure of physical workspaces and transportation networks has forced many businesses and public bodies to adopt virtual technologies. For some individuals, working from home is as simple as taking their laptops home, but others may have specialized PCs and high configured machines that are not as easy to transport back and forth between a home office and workplace.

As a result, over the past few months VM vendors have witnessed the acceleration of VM and cloud computing technologies sales. The market has shown significant growth during the pandemic, it has grown by nearly 3% — 5% in Q1-Q3 2020. However, the market is expected to become streamline by the end of 2021.
