Market Overview

Key Drivers

The high penetration of wireless network infrastructure is driving growth in the market.  The spread of the Internet around the world has never been at an ever higher level since the contemporary world. The ever-increasing Internet and wireless broadband penetration across verticals is the primary driver of the global market as it is driving the proliferation of the social and mobility phenomenon across enterprises. 

However, the entire digital system is implemented in a way to incentivize the consumer fairly in the consumption of digital products and services. The increasing construction of data centers for the storage of data over the network requires NFV and SDN. Hence, the adoption of sophisticated NFV technologies is driven by these business transformations across vertical segments, which will boost the growth of the global market in focus during the forecast period.

Market Trends and Analysis

The rising adoption of BYOD is a key trend in the market.  Due to the preferences of employees for using their smartphones, tablets, and portable computers on the job, enterprise mobility has taken a prominent place in corporate life. The bring your own devices (BYOD) policy demands specific network services and IT service delivery frameworks to guarantee electronically secure and productive work environments. 

Moreover, vendors are providing NFV solutions to implement the BYOD program successfully by offering an environment in which the workforce of an organization can use their personal devices through robust Internet connectivity. In order to achieve better efficiency, this will be complemented by reducing traffic on the network, which will have a positive impact on the growth of the global market during the forecast period.

Market Restrain

Data privacy and security concerns is a major challenge faced by the NFV market. More security and data breach problems have been caused by increasing connectivity and data sharing. Earlier, cybersecurity was concentrated on a limited number of connected devices. However, due to the IoT revolution, there will be a large-scale combination of both physical and virtual worlds.

Therefore, the fear of cyber attacks can hamper the sensor and device data in an industrial setup. This data is accessible on the internet and should be authenticated by means of an authentication layer. The possibility of cyber intrusion will result in less uptake of network services, which may hamper the growth of the global market in focus during the forecast period.

Market Segmentation By component

The market share growth by the solution segment will be significant during the forecast period. The adoption of NFV eliminates the use of hardware appliances by replacing the latter with virtual software and infrastructure provided by vendors. This software enables networks to provide on-demand services, by adopting it from telecom providers., which is comparatively difficult while using physical hardware appliances.

The solution segments showed a gradual increase in the market share of USD 8.08 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. NFV deployments also include SDN controllers, where both SDN and NFV technologies will enhance the control of the deployed virtual services. The NFV market will experience massive growth during the forecast period after the commercial deployment of 5G technologies because in order to use an agile network and provide on-demand services, there is a growing need for Virtual Network Functioning Platforms and Management Software.

Market Segmentation By End-User

The IT and telecom segment will grow at a higher pace compared with the global average rate during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the adoption of new network technologies such as 4G and 5G, as well as the need to manage the network systems according to strategic business requirements and strict government laws. In order to stay competitive in their business, the adoption of telecommunications network services by organizations is expected to increase with regard to performance and effectiveness as well as improved communication between networks. Consumers are likely to play a vital role in the growth of IP traffic owing to the increased digitalization and connected devices powering smart connectivity which will have a positive impact on the growth of the global NFV market during the forecast period.

Regional Overview

North America is estimated to contribute 37% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period. In this region, the demand for developing network infrastructure by firms to gain a competitive edge in the market and its increasing network infrastructure complexity are key enablers of the NFV market. Due to competition between different network functions and virtualization providers, companies have been improving their products in order to maintain a market share. The adoption of NFV in North American countries such as the US and Canada is the highest in the region. Such factors will increase the market growth in this region during the forecast period.

In 2020, the region was adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to the temporary closure of several commercial spaces, such as offices and retail outlets. In 2021, large-scale vaccination drives initiated by the governments across various countries of the region resulted in the lifting of lockdown restrictions. Since many organizations are currently discussing the possibility of providing permanent work-from-home policies to their employees., the demand for NFVs in the region is expected to grow during the forecast period.
