PDF-SD-WAN Market

Software-Defined Wide Area Network Market to witness 58% CAGR
from 2019 to 2025: Global Market Insights Inc.
According to a new research report by the market research and strategy consulting
firm, Global Market Insights, Inc, the Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN)
Market is set to exceed USD 17 billion by 2025. SD-WAN market growth is driven by
the extensive adoption of SD-WAN solutions, which will unburden the organization
with an expensive legacy infrastructure maintenance. The traditional WAN
infrastructure relied on expensive hardware appliances to provide connectivity to
remote locations. By deploying SD-WAN solutions, organizations can reduce those
expenses. Another factor accelerating market growth is the increased adoption of
cloud-based platforms. The solutions help enterprises to connect remote users and
devices directly to the cloud and ensure that the connections are secured. These
solutions enable them to reduce the network complexities of managing dynamic
workload and provide improved network visibility.
Furthermore, the penetration of smart IoT devices in various business verticals,
including healthcare, manufacturing, telecom, and retail has increased the network
complexities and security risks. SD-WAN solutions help to address the complexities
of the IoT infrastructure and also improve the network visibility for managing connected
devices to reduce security risks. The penetration of AI-enabled SD-WAN solutions will
also contribute toward software-defined wide area network market growth. Machine
learning algorithms are widely used for WAN optimization, enabling network
administrators to analyze the WAN traffic and automatically re-route the traffic for the
selected connection.
The physical appliance segment held a major portion of the software-defined wide
area network market having a market share of around 75% in 2018. Physical
appliances contain most of the SD-WAN functionality in the appliance itself, including
firewalls, dynamic path routing, and WAN optimization. These appliances are the initial
choice of SD-WAN adopters as they contain basic functionalities and advanced
security in a single product that can be implemented on-premise.
Managed services in the software-defined wide area network market is expected to
grow at a CAGR of over 65% from 2019 to 2025. The demand for these services is
expected to accelerate as organizations are outsourcing the implementation of their
WAN infrastructure to managed service providers to reduce the complexities
associated with the in-house WAN deployment. Managed services enable them to

educe their operational costs as the majority of the network functions are outsourced
to third-parties. These factors are expected to drive the demand for managed services
in the market.
The on-premise deployment model is expected to hold the majority of the market share
as this model enables IT architects of organizations to construct their own WAN
infrastructure and develop network policies according to their needs. The premisebased
models enable enterprises to ensure that their networks are running securely
and give them a direct control to handle the security aspects of the infrastructure.
The manufacturing market is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate of over 60%
from 2019 to 2025. The software-defined wide area network market growth is
attributed to the growing popularity of IoT platforms. As sensors and smart devices are
widely used in manufacturing facilities, the manufacturing companies require
solutions, which can provide exceptional network visibility for managing those
endpoints. SD-WAN solutions enable manufacturers to simplify the network
management and prioritize network traffic to ensure that business-critical applications
get the required connection. As the use of IoT devices and communication
technologies in the manufacturing industry continues to rise, the demand for these
solutions to support the connectivity across manufacturing facilities will increase.

The software-defined wide area network market in Asia Pacific will show the fastest
growth rate of over 61% over the forecast timeline. The market growth is driven by the
growing adoption of cloud-based infrastructure by enterprises to achieve agility and
improve application performance. The enterprises are adopting solutions to improve
their network performance and reduce the complexity associated with the existing
WAN infrastructure. Another factor accelerating market growth in the region is the
adoption of network virtualization technologies to reduce the operational costs and
enhance the automation of networks. For example, in December 2017, China Telecom
selected ZTE for the provisional cloud resource pool pre-commercial trial SDN project.
Under the collaboration, ZTE provided China Telecom with full series of SDN solutions
to support the need for automatic resource pool deployment and resource pool
interconnection while managing construction costs.
The players operating in the market are focusing on product innovations to develop
new offerings to cater to the evolving needs of enterprise networks. The companies
are offering new and cost-effective solutions to help enterprises address the growing
infrastructure demands. In September 2017, Huawei launched its SD-WAN solution
and a series of universal computing gateway systems to provide enterprises with an
on-demand interconnection between multiple branches and cloud. In August 2018,
Cisco and Sify Technologies launched managed and secure SD-WAN service, built
on the Cisco SD-WAN platform for Indian enterprises. The new service providers
provide flexibility to the customers to easily transition from their existing network to a
fully secure SD-WAN platform. Some of the companies are focusing on strategic
acquisitions to expand their existing capabilities to gain more market share. For
instance, in August 2017, Cisco acquired Viptela, Inc. to develop a next-generation of
intent-based networking solutions. Through this acquisition, the company blended
Viptela’s technology with its SD-WAN products to bring next-generation solutions to
the market.
Some of the key players in the software-defined wide area network (SD-WAN) market
are, Aryaka, Barracuda Networks, Berkshire Partners LLC (Masergy
Communications), Cato Networks, Cisco, Citrix, CloudGenix, Ecessa Corporation,
Elfiq Networks, FatPipe Networks, Huawei, Infovista, Nuage Networks, Oracle,
Peplink, Riverbed, Silver Peak, Versa Networks, Vmware, and ZTE.
