The global transparent caching market size reached US$ 4.8 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, the market is projected to reach US$ 36.1 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 25.13% during 2023-2032.
Transparent caching refers to the process of storing data close to the subscriber so that future requests for the same can be served quickly. Although caching was the sole domain of website hosting and serving, it has now moved to mainstream computing and is even integrated into new operating systems. In the world of transparent caching, content is not pre-provisioned; however, the system has to identify which is the most popular content across various sources and then store it for local delivery. The caching and distribution can be done on a statistical basis by detecting the most requested content, or in accordance with business rules wherein an operator would propagate to the local delivery layer via open application program interfaces (APIs).
Transparent caching offers numerous advantages, such as improving the performance and Quality of Experience (QoE) for the end users and reducing network bandwidth consumption. It also helps in lowering capital expense (CAPEX) and operating expense (OPEX) by enabling the existing network routers, switches and internet links to handle more traffic. Moreover, the growing video content represents another major factor driving the market growth, as it is the largest and fastest growing type of network traffic load, especially over mobile devices.
Moreover, many leading IT firms are advancing caching technology as a fully managed service to speed deployment and streamline ongoing operations. For instance, Qwilt, an Edge Cloud application developer, has introduced “Qwilt Live Stream Cache,” a caching solution for optimizing both the live and on-demand streaming video by caching content at the network edge, close to consumers.
