Zero Touch Provisioning Global Market Report 2024

The zero touch provisioning market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.51 billion in 2023 to $4.1 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.6%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to the increasing adoption of smart devices, a growing proliferation of connected consumer devices, rising acceptance of the industrial Internet of Things (IoT), heightened demand for connected devices, and the overall growth in the number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

The zero touch provisioning market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.7 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.1%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be credited to the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, the expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) alongside efficient device onboarding processes, a rising demand for faster network provisioning and scalability, increasing adoption of cloud-based services and virtualization technologies, and the growing complexity of network infrastructures.

The anticipated surge in 5G network deployment is poised to drive the expansion of the zero-touch provisioning market. 5G, the latest wireless cellular technology iteration, promises heightened capacity, enhanced reliability, and accelerated data transfer rates compared to its predecessors. This deployment trend is spurred by the demand for swifter data speeds, reduced latency, and support for a wide array of interconnected devices. Facilitating remote device setup and management with enhanced speed and efficiency, 5G networks enable zero-touch provisioning. Notably, in September 2023, North America boasted 151 million 5G connections and 496 million LTE connections, with projections indicating an increase to 669 million by 2028, as reported by 5G Americas, a US-based industry trade organization. This indicates the surge in 5G network deployment driving the zero-touch provisioning market in forecast period.
