Multi-Access Edge Computing Market: Overview
Application developers and content providers at the edge of a network can use cloud computing capabilities and an IT service environment owing to multi-access edge computing. Additionally, multi-access edge computing provides a value chain and ecosystem for distributing high-bandwidth, low-latency applications. Its goal is to define a set of application programming interfaces (APIs) that enables the creation of virtual network functions and is capable of meeting all requirements of a mobile communication network, including security, portability, and orchestration. It is entirely composed from a software point of view. The primary force driving market expansion is the growing reliance on the Internet of Things devices by centralized cloud computing and storage solutions. However, moving IT infrastructure to the cloud concerns latency and cost feasibility. Due to this, many industries that use IoT actuators, sensors, and other devices are closely considering edge computing possibilities, including edge nodes, devices, and hyper-localized data centers.
Multi-Access Edge Computing Market: COVID – 19 Impact Analysis
Global economies have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. For several industries, COVID-19 has created some difficulties. Due to the considerable slowdown in the global and U.S. tech markets in 2020, major countries, including the US, reduced their ICT investment in the first half of 2020, which is projected to have a negative effect on the growth of the multi-access edge computing market in the forecasted years. Additionally, spending on tech consulting and system integration services temporarily decreased. However, businesses across a range of sectors already realize the benefits and value of multi-access edge computing, which is said to have aided them during the epidemic. It is therefore anticipated that some business owners will start stepping up their efforts to transform their organizations digitally and will begin investing aggressively in IT and cloud resources in the upcoming year, which will present lucrative opportunities for the multi-access edge computing market.
Multi-Access Edge Computing Market: Growth Drivers
An increasing number of IoT devices accelerates the market’s growth
It is projected that the proliferation of IoT devices and the growing need for real-time analysis of data generated would accelerate the MEC market’s expansion (multi-access edge computing). Due to the deployment of virtual machines from the network edge to cloud computing centers, multi-access edge computing deployment also enables the management of resource operation and improvement of routing and computing loads. Utilizing this technology in the IoT can ease the burden on cloud networks and result in decreased energy consumption, which is predicted to present the market with considerable potential prospects.
Multi-access edge computing applications
A wide range of end-user sectors, including data centers, intelligent cities, smart homes, smart buildings, IT & telecom, healthcare, automotive, and agriculture, have enhanced the use of multi-access edge computing during the past several years. The tool assists businesses in achieving quicker decision-making processes. Therefore, throughout the projected years, expanding the use of this knowledge is anticipated to result in higher sales in the worldwide multi-access edge computing market.
Increasing demand for augmented and virtual reality optimization
The need for delivering better experiences using virtual, augmented, and mixed reality is growing due to technology improvements and the need to increase bandwidth to improve 5G capabilities. Therefore, these integrations will provide the multi-access edge computing market with various options. In addition, to enhance the existing watching experience, some industries, including broadcasting, sports, and entertainment, anticipate the integration of multi-access edge computing with augmented reality and virtual reality.
Multi-Access Edge Computing Market: Segmentation Analysis
The multi-access edge computing market is segmented into component and end-use. Based on this part, the software segment is estimated to lead the market during the forecast period. The requirement for software that adheres to the existing MEC architecture increases as more IoT devices is integrated into an ecosystem built on multi-access edge computing. Furthermore, to practice content management, distributed processing, and multi-level load-balancing, it is becoming more and more necessary to use software following the current environment, which assists in expanding the software market.
Over the projection period, the hardware category is anticipated to grow consistently. Because IoT devices lighten the load on clouds and data centers, the hardware sector retains a sizable market share. In addition, the edge computing gear must meet the required specifications, frequently deployed in challenging environmental circumstances. The local data centers, edge gateways, and devices for rapid decision-making are part of the multi-access edge computing market’s edge computers outfitted with performance accelerators for real-time data processing.
By end use, the data center segment is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. The multi-access edge computing architecture, which offered more flexibility in the use of data centers, is responsible for this increase. Additionally, networks and operators can use an agile strategy to improve infrastructures and environments based on a distributed architecture thanks to changing patterns in the employment of data centers. Micro data centers based on MECs are also expected to hasten the paradigm change in data center employment practices.
