The software defined everything market size is forecast to increase by USD 162.8 billion at a CAGR of 34.2% between 2023 and 2028.
The software defined everything (sde) industry research report provides comprehensive data (region-wise segment analysis), with forecasts and estimates in "USD billion" for the period 2024-2028, as well as historical data from 2018-2022 for the following segments.
The it and telecom segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.
The market is experiencing significant growth as communication service providers (CSPs) seek to scale their operations across physical, virtual, and cloud resources without the need for hardware modifications. In the telecom sector, this shift is primarily driven by the increasing volume of data being generated, collected, and managed. Traditional storage solutions offer limited visibility, hinder integration, and restrict tool choices to proprietary options. As a result, the global SDE market is experiencing increased demand from telecom and IT enterprises in search of enhanced storage solutions. Telecom service providers are undergoing digital transformation to deliver advanced services, such as 5G Internet of Things (IoT), and edge computing solutions, to businesses and consumers.
Infrastructure automation, software-defined security (SDS), and orchestration tools are essential components of this transformation. SDS enables policy-based management and cost optimization, while network programmability and network virtualization facilitate network slicing and improved operational efficiency. Cloud orchestration and cloud-native applications are also driving the adoption of SDE, as they allow for self-service portals and agile development. Open standards and open source solutions are increasingly popular, as they offer flexibility and reduce company lock-in. Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are playing a crucial role in network optimization and improving business agility. The financial services industry is another significant contributor to the SDE market, as they seek to enhance security and improve operational efficiency.
Service mesh and configuration management are essential tools for managing complex microservices architectures. Edge computing and virtualization platforms are also gaining traction, as they enable faster data processing and reduce latency. In conclusion, the SDE market is witnessing substantial growth due to the increasing demand for advanced services and the need for more efficient, flexible, and cost-effective solutions. The integration of automation platforms, SDS, orchestration tools, and open standards is transforming the telecom and IT industries, enabling businesses to adapt to the evolving digital landscape.
The IT and telecom segment was valued at USD 8.90 billion in 2018 and showed a gradual increase during the forecast period.
North America is estimated to contribute 53% 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.
The market is experiencing significant growth, particularly in North America, which holds a prominent position in the global landscape. This region's dominance can be attributed to the increasing demand for cloud computing services, leading to the expansion of data centers and storage spaces. The Software-Defined Security (SDS) module is a key component of SDE, enabling users to scale resources on demand, making it an attractive solution for startups, SMEs, and enterprises alike. Its flexibility caters to temporary workloads and those subject to unexpected changes. The adoption of SDE is driven by the benefits of virtualization, automation of administrative tasks, and dynamic scaling.
Infrastructure automation and orchestration tools are essential components of SDE, ensuring operational efficiency and business agility. Open standards and open source solutions are integral to the SDE ecosystem, fostering innovation and collaboration. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are also playing a pivotal role in enhancing network programmability and network virtualization. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Software-Defined Storage (SDS) are critical technologies that enable policy-based management and cost optimization. Edge computing and service mesh further extend the reach of SDE, while digital transformation initiatives in telecom operators, financial services, and other industries are fueling the adoption of SDE for network slicing and cloud orchestration.
Our researchers analyzed the data with 2023 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
