The self organizing network market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size of self-organizing networks has experienced significant growth over the past few years. The projection is for it to increase from $7.45 billion in 2024 to $8.61 billion in 2025, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6%.
Factors such as heightened mobile data traffic, increasing demand for optimized networks, the complexity of network management, the need for cost-effectiveness, and the rise in adopting cloud computing have contributed to the growth observed in the historic period.
The self organizing network market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for self-organizing networks is anticipated to experience robust expansion in the near future, with an expected value of $15.15 billion in 2029 following a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.2%.
Factors contributing to this projected surge during the forecast period include heightened involvement in software-defined networking and virtualization, a growing number of interconnected devices, a need for self-operated network management, the fast-paced initiatives for digital transformation, and a focus on sustainability and energy efficiency. Notable trends emerging during the forecast period are augmented automation in network tasks, a move towards dynamic and adaptive network setups, emergence of self-repairing networks, increased use of predictive analytics for optimizing networks and the inclusion of network slicing to provide tailored services.
The self-organizing network market is predicted to surge due to the exponential increase in mobile data traffic. The term "mobile data traffic" represents the quantity of data that mobile devices, including smartphones, tablets, and other connected gadgets, transmit via cellular networks. Factors such as the widespread adoption of smartphones, growing demand for streaming services, the swell in Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and advancements in mobile network technology contribute to the rise in mobile data traffic. Self-organizing networks support the exponential growth of mobile data traffic by optimally managing network resources, boosting coverage, and improving network efficiency overall. As an example, the mobility report provided by Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (Ericsson), a Sweden-based network and telecommunications corporation, in March 2024, projects that total worldwide mobile data traffic - barring fixed wireless access (FWA) - will rise from 130 EB per month in 2023 to roughly 403 EB per month by 2029. This represents a growth factor of about 3x. Consequently, the rapid increase in mobile data traffic fuels the growth of the self-organizing network market.
