Ecosystem Market : Industry Size, Share, Research, Reviews, Analysis,
Strategies, Demand, Growth, Segmentation, Parameters, Forecasts
While
the advantages of SDN (Software Defined Networking) and network
virtualization are well known in the enterprise IT and data center
world, both technologies also bring a host of benefits to the
telecommunications service provider community. Not only can these
technologies help address the explosive capacity demand of mobile
traffic, but they can also reduce the CapEx and OpEx burden faced by
service providers to handle this demand by diminishing reliance on
expensive proprietary hardware platforms. The recognition of these
benefits has led to the emergence of the NFV (Network Functions
Virtualization) concept that seeks to virtualize and effectively
consolidate many service provider network elements onto multi-tenant
industry-standard servers, switches and storage.
Mobile
operators and internet service providers have already begun making SDN
and NFV investments in a number of functional areas including but not
limited to EPC/mobile core, IMS, policy control, CPE (Customer Premises
Equipment), CDN (Content Delivery Network) and transport networks. SNS
Research estimates that service provider SDN and NFV investments will
grow at a CAGR of 46% between 2016 and 2020. As service providers seek
to reduce costs and virtualize their networks, these investments will
eventually account for over $18 Billion in revenue by the end of 2020.
The
“SDN, NFV & Network Virtualization Ecosystem: 2016 – 2030 –
Opportunities, Challenges, Strategies & Forecasts” report presents
an in-depth assessment of the SDN, NFV and network virtualization
ecosystem including enabling technologies, key trends, market drivers,
challenges, use cases, deployment case studies, regulatory landscape,
standardization, opportunities, future roadmap, value chain, ecosystem
player profiles and strategies. The report also presents market size
forecasts from 2016 till 2030. The forecasts are segmented for 10
submarkets, 2 user base categories, 9 use cases, 6 regions and 34
countries.
Key Findings:
The report has the following key findings:
- SNS Research estimates that service provider SDN and NFV investments will grow at a CAGR of 46% between 2016 and 2020, eventually accounting for over $18 Billion in revenue by the end of 2020.
- At present, virtualized CPE, EPC/mobile core, IMS and policy control platforms represent nearly 70% of all VNF (Virtual Network Function) software investments.
- SNS Research estimates that by 2020, nearly 80% of all new EPC investments will be virtualized.
- Although the use of SDN is widespread in the enterprise and data center domain, service providers are only beginning to adopt the technology to programmatically manage their networks.
- Investments on orchestration platforms will account for over $1.6 Billion in revenue by the end of 2020, representing nearly 10% of all service provider SDN and NFV spending.
- The growing adoption of SDN and NFV has created a natural opportunity for silicon and server OEMs to combine their server platforms with a networking business stream.
