Market Overview:
The Software-defined Networking & Network Function Virtualization Market size is estimated to reach $189.6 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 28.2% during the forecast period 2024-2030, according to a recent report published by IndustryARC, titled, “Software-defined Networking & Network Function Virtualization Market – By Product (Software, Services, Physical Appliances), By SDN Type (Open SDN, SDN by APIs, SDN Overlay Model, Hybrid SDN), By Application (Power and Energy, Government, ITeS, BFSI, Education, Manufacturing, Retail, Transportation and Logistics, Defense, Healthcare, Others), By End User (Cloud Service Providers, Technology Service Providers, Enterprises), By Geography - Global Opportunity Analysis & Industry Forecast, 2024-2030”
Emerging 5G technology is being rapidly adopted leading to the demand for enhanced network capabilities, which promotes the integration of SDN and NFV. Demand for agility and scalability is driving organisations to implement flexible networking solutions. Enterprises are encouraged to replace expensive hardware with virtualized network functions due to cost efficiency. The proliferation of IoT devices and applications require new network management tools. This demand for virtualized and software defined networks is fueled by the shift to cloud based solutions.
North America Dominated the Market in 2023:
North America accounted for the largest share of 35% of the Software-defined Networking & Network Function Virtualization Market in 2023. Because of the robust investment in IT infrastructure in North America, coupled with the widespread adoption of cloud across industries, North America is the leading region in cloud computing. The reported FY24 IT/CA budget is large, $58.5 billion for 3,639 IT investments according to the U.S. Department of Defense. $52.1 billion (89%) are for non-major initiatives and $6.4 billion (11%) are for major investments. Furthermore, the region's reliance on advanced private sector solutions is evidenced by the fact that 97% of the cloud budget is managed by commercial service providers. However, these factors, mixed with strong government support and private sector innovation, make North America the leading region.
Software-defined Networking & Network Function Virtualization Market: Key Takeaways
Rising Adoption of 5G:
The rising adoption of 5G is a key driver in the Software-defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) market, as these technologies enable the agility and scalability needed to support 5G networks. As per GSMA, India was ranked 14th globally in 5G median download speeds in Q4 2023 with 301.86 Mbps, mainly thanks to the speedy 5G deployments of Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel. The availability of 5G in India increased quite substantially (from 28.1% in Q1 to 52.0% in Q4) and is being adopted quickly. This shows that 5G performs better than 4G LTE, with smaller latency when playing mobile games through data-capable video streaming applications, and makes it superior. 5G Net Promoter Scores (NPS) were seen in positive territory as highlighted by the operators like Reliance Jio and Airtel. The demand for SDN and NFV are fuelled globally to manage the complex, high performance requirements of 5G networks.

Proliferation of IoT Devices and Smart Applications:
Rapid proliferation of IoT devices and smart applications is a key driver for the Software defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV) market due to the ability of these technologies to offer the flexibility and scalability to manage the rapidly growing network demands. Broadband IoT now makes up over 50% of all cellular IoT connections, and, as Ericsson says, total cellular IoT connections will reach 4 billion in 2024. NB-IoT and Cat-M, massive IoT technologies that support cost efficient, low complexity devices with long battery life, are being widely deployed, with 133 service providers adopting NB-IoT and 61 launching Cat-M. Then, it grows further with the use of IoT devices in conjunction with advanced 4G and 5G networks. SDN and NFV solutions will be critical to optimizing next generation IoT ecosystems as legacy 2G/3G IoT devices decline at a rate of 20% per year through 2029.
