Software Defined Networking (SDN) Market Analysis - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends and Forecast 2022 - 2030

With the astounding amount of data generated, mobile devices, cloud computing, and social media are pushing traditional networks to their limit. There is an increased need for advanced network infrastructures to manage this huge amount of data. Computing and storage have benefitted with the innovations in automation and virtualization; however, these benefits are suppressed by the limitations in network capabilities. SDN has the potential to revolutionize the legacy data centers by offering an efficient way to control network operations. Software defined networking (SDN) technology is a programmatic approach for virtually controlling, changing and managing the network behavior through software. SDN helps administrators and network engineers to swiftly respond to the changing business requirements through centralized control. Software defined networking comprises multiple network technologies that are designed to make network more flexible and alert to support storage infrastructure of modern data center. SDN offers a centralized, programmable network that ca dynamically match the changing business requirements and offers benefits such as reduced capital expenditure, reduced operating expenditure, directly programmable, offers centralized management and optimization, enables innovation and delivers agility and flexibility. The global software defined networking market is expected to grow at an astonishing CAGR of around 47% during the period from 2016 to 2022 and reach the market size of more than $130 billion. 

 

North America was the largest market for software defined networking in 2015 and the region is expected to maintain its leading position throughout the forecast period. North America is one of the early adopters of SDN technology and it is being extensively adopted in various industry verticals including healthcare, BFSI, IT, energy, telecom and others. One of the major reasons for the higher adoption of this technology is the high standardization offered by this technology. Cloud computing, mobility services, and network virtualization are adopted by numerous players in North America at early stage, which further justifies the high share of this region in global SDN market.
