The global application lifecycle management market size reached USD 2.8 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 5.1 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8% during 2025-2033. The increasing demand for agile and DevOps practices, the rising demand for application security and vulnerability management, and the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Application lifecycle management (ALM) is the process of management of software applications from their inception to their retirement. It encompasses the entire lifespan of an application, including requirements gathering, design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. ALM provides a framework and set of practices to streamline and optimize the software development process. It involves collaboration between business analysts, developers, testers, project managers, and operations application lifecycle managements, where it ensures that there is effective communication and coordination among these groups, facilitating the smooth flow of information and tasks throughout the application's lifecycle. It provides a structured approach to software development, allowing organizations to deliver high-quality applications efficiently. It helps ensure that applications are developed, deployed, and maintained in a consistent and controlled manner, leading to improved productivity, reduced costs, and enhanced customer satisfaction.
The increasing demand for agile and DevOps practices is driving the global market. Along with this, with growing complexity in software development, ALM tools are catalyzing the growth of the market as these tools offer features, such as requirements management, version control, testing, and deployment automation, which help organizations cope with the complexities and ensure smooth development and delivery. Besides, the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) devices and mobile applications is creating a positive market outlook. In line with this, the integration of ALM with DevOps and continuous delivery is fuelling the market as it enables faster, more efficient software delivery. Moreover, ALM solutions provide comprehensive visibility into the entire application lifecycle, enabling organizations to monitor and analyze key metrics and performance indicators, thus contributing to the overall market. Apart from this, the rising demand for application security and vulnerability management is impacting the market favorably as ALM solutions that are integrated with vulnerability scanning, security testing, and secure coding practices help organizations identify and address security risks early in the development process. Furthermore, with the widespread use of smartphones and web-based applications, there has been a growing demand for ALM solutions. Other factors, such as growing emphasis on quality and compliance, rising focus on cost optimization and efficiency, and increasing adoption of hybrid and multi-cloud environments, are also influencing the market.
