Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global LANaaS market will grow impressively during the next four years and will post a CAGR of more than 30% by 2020. This market research analysis identifies the increased adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) as one of the primary growth factors for this market. Rapid urbanization, migration of people to urban areas, and the rise in development of smart cities, have resulted in the exponential increase in the number of smart connected devices. This will rise the demand for M2M and machine-to-human (M2H) communications since they help users easily manage, monitor, and maintain connected devices. IoT uses several technologies such as Wi-Fi, radio frequency identification (RFID), sensors, barcodes, and GPS which mandate the requirement of effective connectivity solutions to ensure the stability of their smart city projects. Since LANaaS-enabled services provide low-cost connectivity solutions for smart connected devices, the coming years will witness a rapid increase in their demand.
The increased adoption of on-demand LAN will be one of the major trends that will gain traction in this market in the next few years. The increasing popularity of LANaaS and wide area network as a service (WANaaS) will result in the adoption of on-demand networking solutions. On-demand services provide flexible networking options with minimal upfront costs. Vendors such as Cisco Systems and AT&T have already developed on-demand networking services to explore new areas in the cloud-based networking market and are also developing next-generation networking solutions such as software-defined networking, to simplify the LAN systems.
Owing to the presence of a considerable number of market players, the competition among the market vendors is quite intense. The emergence of cloud-based networking and hyper-converged solutions will further intensify the level of competition in the market. Vendors in the market are currently investing in next-generation communication technologies and are mainly focusing on the acquisition of companies that specialize in cloud-based networking solutions. To sustain the competition and retain their market shares, leading market players have the need to invest in key technologies and also compete in the domestic market due to the emergence of start-up firms in different geographical locations.
