The on-premise subsegment, under the Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) market, is expected to register significant growth during the forecast period.
In 2024, the on-premises segment accounted for the highest share of the LIMS market. The growth of the on-premise segment is attributed to several factors, including the preference of certain industries or organizations to keep their LIMS infrastructure in-house. On-premise solutions offer a higher degree of control, customization, and security, which is essential for businesses with strict data management and regulatory compliance requirements. Additionally, the on-premise deployment model provides a sense of data sovereignty, particularly for organizations that handle sensitive or highly regulated data. The growth is also driven by the ability to have localized control over data management, ensuring better customization to meet the unique needs and preferences of various industries. As a result, the demand for on-premise LIMS continues to rise, catering to businesses seeking secure, customizable, and compliant laboratory information management solutions.
Infrastructure as a service is projected to dominate the Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) market, by industry, during the forecast period.
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) is emerging as the fastest-growing segment in the cloud computing market, driven by the increasing demand for scalable, cost-effective, and flexible IT infrastructure. Organizations across industries are shifting from traditional on-premise systems to IaaS to reduce capital expenditures, improve business agility, and support remote operations. The rise in big data, artificial intelligence, and digital transformation initiatives further fuels the adoption of IaaS, as it enables rapid provisioning of computing resources, storage, and networking on demand. This trend is expected to continue as businesses prioritize agility and resilience in their IT strategies.
Asia Pacific is expected to register highest market growth during the forecast period.
The Asian market is expected to register the highest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during the forecast period. This growth is driven by the rising demand for advanced technologies, including the widespread adoption of Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning, which are accelerating the implementation of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) across the region. Government policies and initiatives are further fuelling this momentum. Additionally, improvements in interoperability standards are making it easier to integrate and deploy LIMS solutions. The expansion of medical tourism and the development of infrastructure in research laboratories are also contributing to this trend, enabling organizations to fully leverage LIMS to boost operational efficiency, improve data accuracy, and enhance patient care.
