Network Function Virtualization Market Regional Analysis
North America dominates the global network function virtualization market. The increasing use of proof of concepts in telecom companies is a key driving force. Besides, the presence of key industry players such as Cisco, Intel, Amdocs, and Oracle, impacts the NFV market adoption in this region. Also, the rapid shift to 5G networks drives the market demand.
The region witnesses the increasing adoption of 5G network services in industries such as automotive, media & entertainment, and others. The faster adoption of advanced technologies and increasing initiatives to develop innovative modules & deployment of innovative networks substantiate the market size. Furthermore, the high customer digital engagement fosters the region’s market shares.
Industry Trends
Increased digitization and automation across the manufacturing sectors have also fueled IoT deployments and the need for innovative networking solutions. Many organizations are leveraging 5G capabilities with reduced latency as they seek new ways to adopt highly automated deployment and management approaches.
Also, the uptake of remote working (Work-from-home) environments has increased the market demand for network virtualization for high-speed networks and IoT securities. The increasing need for businesses to improve operational efficiencies and reduce time to market and expenses & capital expenditures would boost the market size.
The market is experiencing an uptick in investments in R&D activities to develop network function virtualization solutions. Creating business-specific applications that leverage advantage of the technologies and services that have become primitive to focus on asset monitoring & optimization, field worker productivity & safety, and visual inspection became important.
The rising demand for 5G-compatible network solutions influences NFV market size. Growing needs for mission-critical infrastructures led by the rapid shift to cloud, digitization, and 5G is another key growth driver. Besides, advances in virtualization techniques that can automate network function virtualization push the growth of the market.
Network function virtualization helps 5G achieve the maximum potential, allowing multiple logical networks as virtually independent business operations. The rapid penetration of 5G is expected to drive market growth, enabling communication with many devices comprising complex IoT implementations.
As 5G technology scales, network function virtualization would become one of the major 5G deployment models. Service providers target high revenue-generating network function virtualization applications such as cloud gaming, smart healthcare, and IoT applications. Augmenting demand for high-speed network coverage across industries integrating SDN & NFV is estimated to impact market growth positively.
NFV makes a network more responsive, flexible, and easily scalable, accelerating market time and significantly reducing equipment costs. However, there are significant security risks & concerns involved in it, especially telecommunications providers, slowing down the NFV adoption among them.
Communication service providers (CSPs) worldwide are transitioning their networks to 5G, a decoupled architecture for cloud-native network functions and platforms. In addition to the spectrum and hardware investments, CSPs embrace cloud-native principles, leaping from hardware-based architectures to nimble software-driven frameworks for better scalability, reliability and agility.
Network Function Virtualization Market Competitive Analysis
Dominant Key Players on Network Function Virtualization Market Covered are:
Highly competitive, the network function virtualization market appears fragmented due to the presence of several well-established players. Leading market players invest in research and development activities and drive their expansion plans. These players incorporate approaches such as strategic partnerships, mergers & acquisitions, expansion, collaboration, and product/technology launches to gain a larger competitive share.
For instance, recently, on May 16, 2022, Cisco and Megaport announced their partnership to simplify SD-WAN. Optimal multi-cloud performance requires end-to-end SD-WAN automation, which prompted a partnership between Cisco and Megaport. In 2020, Cisco and Megaport partnered to reduce the time required to bridge enterprise SD-WAN sites to clouds.
These companies later launched an on-demand, vendor-neutral network function virtualization (NFV) service that can enable branch-to-cloud connectivity, integrating capabilities for Cisco Software-Defined Cloud Interconnect (SDCI) with Megaport Virtual Edge (MVE). This partnership allows simplified management of the entire network through one ubiquitous platform.
