DUBLIN, March 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Software Defined Networking Market by SDN Type (Open SDN, SDN via Overlay, and SDN via API), Component (Solutions and Services), End User (Data Centers, Service Providers, and Enterprises), and Region - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global SDN market size is projected to grow from USD 8.82 billion in 2018 to USD 28.8 billion by 2023, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 26.8% from 2018 to 2023.

The exponential increase in the size and complexity of network infrastructures in the past decade created a need for solutions to simplify and efficiently manage the entire network and the Increasing demand for cloud services, data center consolidation, and server virtualization are projected to drive the growth of the market across the globe. However, there are security concerns as a centralized controller can be the single point of attack and failure for SDN networks could restrict the growth of the market.

Based on type, the SDN via API segment to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The SDN via API segment is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period, as it enables the operators to manage the entire network and devices consistently, regardless of the complexity of the underlying network technology. Additionally, the open APIs support a wide range of applications, including cloud orchestration, OSS/BSS, SaaS, and business-critical networked apps.

By end users, the data center segment to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The data center segment is projected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period, owing to the increasing adoption of SDN in the evolving software-defined data center (SDDC). The rising usage of SDN in the data centers for handling congestion, gaining visibility and control over the flows in a network, and managing the throughput and connectivity is leading the market growth.

The APAC SDN market to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The APAC SDN market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, owing to the increasing adoption of SDN solutions and services in China and Japan. Moreover, the growing 4G network, rising broadband connectivity, and the presence of a large number of data centers are also driving the market.

The major vendors of SDN solutions and services considered for the study include Cisco (US), VMware (US), Huawei (China), Ciena (US), HPE (US), Juniper Networks (US), NEC (Japan), Extreme Networks (US), Big Switch (US), Pluribus (US), Nokia (Finland), Cumulus (US), Nokia (Finland), Arista (US), and Dell (US).
