Network as a Service Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028

The Global Network as a Service Market is expected to grow at a robust pace during the forecast period of 2024-2028 as the world shall see an increase in number of data centers and remote work model still in place even after the Covid-19 outbreak.

Network as a Service (NaaS) is a cloud architecture that allows customers to easily manage their networks and achieve desired results without owning, building, or maintaining their own infrastructure. NaaS can be used to replace hardware-based VPNs (Virtual Private Network), load balancers, firewall appliances, and MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) connections. Users can scale up and down as demand changes, launch services faster, and reduce hardware costs. NaaS provides the ability to pay for services based on usage and volume as your business needs to evolve. You can also monitor and manage network services and track consumption and prices. On-Demand services can be ordered, implemented, and managed together. To provide network services to customers, NaaS uses a virtualized network infrastructure. Network resources should be maintained and managed by the NaaS provider. When the service provider works for the customer, the customer's workload is reduced. A pay-per-use approach is also used in NaaS.

Rising Demand Worldwide for Network As a Service Fueling the Market Growth

The need for cloud-based solutions is increasing due to the use of technology and increasing customer preference for the cloud that allows users to access data remotely. Demand for cloud-based solutions in business grows as more companies realize the importance of saving costs and resources by moving data to the cloud instead of building and maintaining on-premises infrastructure. According to the CISCO Global Cloud Index, by 2021, 94% of all workloads and computing instances are expected to be handled by cloud data centers, while traditional data centers will handle only 6%. This demonstrates the potential for cloud-based contact center adoption in the future. Major businesses such as banks are expected to increasingly adopt cloud-based service offerings. Solution developers can source application and infrastructure components from many vendors to build hybrid cloud-based solutions, but the IT industry is still looking for efficient infrastructure. This is aimed at accelerating market expansion.

Over the past decade, Network-as-a-Service has been heavily used by IT organizations, with a clear trend of adoption by non-IT organizations as well. This is due to the core principles of Network-as-a-Service that help organizations deal with complex network systems and processes within their organizations. Network-as-a-Service can replace virtual private networks (VPNs), multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) connections, or other traditional network configurations. It can also replace local network hardware such as firewall appliances and load balancers. This is expected to drive the Network as a Service NaaS market during the forecast period.
