Global Market for Software Developed Networking is Anticipated to grow at a Significant Pace i.e., USD 36.5 Billion during the Forecast Period 2025 - 2030

Published Date: Mar, 2024

The global SDN market is anticipated to grow at a 20% CAGR during the forecast period. The surge in demand for IoT and cloud-based services, data center consolidation, and server virtualization, along with the rising prominence of network automation will fuel the growth of the software-defined networking market. Moreover, rapidly increasing demand for enterprise mobility to improve productivity for field-based services, rising venture capital investment in the SDN enterprise market, and rising benefits offered by SDN are the factors influencing the market growth. SDN also helps users achieve reduced Operational Expenditure (OPEX) by providing optimal Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) and increased energy efficiency. The developing economies provide a plethora of prospects for enterprises working in the worldwide SDN industry, owing to their burgeoning digital ecosystems and rapid data expansion.

 In December 2021,  Ericsson and Telefónica Germany / O2 have attained a significant milestone to deploy and control software-defined networking (SDN) for microwave networks.   In the O2 network, Ericsson enabled its MINI-LINK microwave product line, allowing the communication service provider (CSP) to establish a vendor-agnostic SDN interface.

Due to the emergence of the COVID-19 outbreak, many enterprises are shifting to cloud computing, which will enhance the implementation of SDN solutions among cloud service providers, which is beneficial for the industry.
