Rugged Servers Market Analysis
In manufacturing industries, rugged servers are used in applications such as robotics, automation, and process control systems, where reliability and durability are essential. Manufacturers increasingly seek advanced technologies to simplify production plant operations and scale manufacturing volumes. The adoption of consumer-grade servers and industrial computers has increased in the manufacturing industry as rugged servers are reliable and durable and can overcome various technical difficulties associated with consumer-grade servers—including withstanding extreme heat, dust, shock, and vibration of factory floors. The manufacturing industry uses the rugged server to collect and analyze real-time data, which helps the manufacturers improve their production supply chain.
Rugged Servers Market Overview
The demand for rugged servers is increasing in several industries, such as aerospace, defense, oil & gas, transportation, and mining, due to the rising need for data storage and computing capabilities in remote and rugged locations. These servers are deployed in aircraft, military vehicles, mining sites, offshore platforms, and other rugged environments where regular servers may fail to function effectively. Rugged servers deliver high-performance computing, data storage, and cyber protection for seamless, real-time communications and networking, situational awareness, surveillance, weapons control, and autonomous vehicles. These servers provide powerful computing capabilities, enabling them to quickly and accurately analyze large and complex data sets to reduce exploration costs. Further, the oil and gas facilities and pipeline stations regularly store and dispense large combustible and flammable liquids. As gas, vapor, or dust can accumulate in different areas of electronic systems installed for automation and control, they should be designed to resist the unintentional ignition of explosive and flammable gases and liquids by electrical arcing or other thermal means.

Rugged Servers Market Drivers and Opportunities
Growing Oil & Gas and Mining Sectors to Favor Market
Oil & gas and mining sectors have been experiencing significant growth in the US over the years. Oil & gas and mining are the two most attractive sectors from the technology developer's perspective, as these two industries are becoming increasingly popular for advanced technologies. The adoption of advanced technologies continues to prevail, with increasing attraction toward sophisticated and rugged data centers and servers. As oil & gas and mining industries experience harsh environments, which degrade the quality of traditional data centers and servers, the demand for rugged data centers and servers is increasing, fueling market growth. The oil & gas sector is witnessing substantial growth in the US. According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), in 2022, the US natural gas production grew by 4%, to 4.9 billion cubic feet per day [Bcf/d] compared to 2021. Out of the total natural gas production, Appalachia, Permian, and Haynesville accounted for 60% in 2022. Also, as per the same source, the crude oil production in the country is anticipated to average 12.4 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2023 and 12.8 million b/d in 2024. Thus, such growth in oil and gas extraction is surging the adoption of advanced technologies, data security concerns, and a vast amount of data maintenance.
Developments in Energy & Power Industry
The energy & power industry is among the fastest-growing industries in the US. According to EIA, the renewable energy capacity, mostly from wind and solar, will reduce electricity generation from coal-fired and natural gas-fired power plants in 2023-2024. In 2022, wind and solar accounted for 14% of US electricity generation. The electricity generation from wind and solar is expected to rise to 16% in 2023 and 18% in 2024. In April 2022, Crystal Group Inc.—a leading designer and manufacturer of rugged computer and electronic hardware—launched the CMS-01171, the first iteration of the ES373S17 substation server, the first VMware-validated configuration of virtualization-enabled servers. This system combines real-time automation, cybersecurity, auto-failover, remote management, and zero-trust security features for power grid modernization. Thus, such growing advancements by the market players will further propel the market growth.
