Network Emulator Market by Application Type (SD-WAN, Cloud, and IoT), Vertical (Telecommunication, Government and Defense, BFSI), and Region (North America, Europe, APAC, MEA, and Latin America) - Global Forecast to 2024
[90 Pages Report] The global Network Emulator Market size is projected to reach $217 million by 2024, at a CAGR of 8.1%. Network emulators provide such an environment in the virtual format for network performance and security testing, which can ensure the safety of networks and devices in any complicated condition. The network emulators enable organizations to troubleshoot, design networks, test application performance, and optimize network performance. These factors drive the network emulator market.
Software-define Wide Area Network to account for the largest market size during the forecast period
SD-WAN networks typically connect corporate headquarters and data centers with local offices and Software as a Service (SaaS)-based applications through multiple Wide Area Network (WAN) links. While SD-WANs are capable of increasing the capacity and performance of the networks they manage, mission-critical applications depend on them to function properly. Thorough testing proves vital in selecting and configuring the right system for specific network conditions, application mix, and budget. Network emulators simplify the testing and evaluation of SD-WAN systems by replicating real-world networks in the lab with state-of-the-art WAN emulators. They help configure SD-WAN optimization efforts for specific network conditions and applications as well as emulate WAN connections to validate performance before risking business in real-world scenarios.
Telecommunication vertical to account for the largest market size during the forecast period
The need to emulate complex network deployments and create complex network conditions is expected to drive market growth telecom network operators. These operators transform their network environments toward next-generation networking solutions to introduce advanced value-added services. The increase in the number of connected devices has generated an unprecedented demand for bandwidth for these devices. The network operators are required to transform their network for continual optimization, to facilitate capacity reallocation and upgradation, in order to meet the increasing bandwidth demand for advanced services and cost optimization for delivering services. Network emulators help telecommunication network operators to emulate the complex network deployments and create complex network conditions in the lab for testing and troubleshooting networks.
North America to hold the largest market size during the forecast period
North America comprises developed countries, such as the US and Canada. These countries have invested significantly in Research and Development (R&D) activities, thereby contributing to the development of innovative technologies. The network emulator market in North America is highly competitive, as countries such as the US and Canada are focused on R&D and innovation. These countries are early adopters of technologies in various verticals. The US and Canada are also the leading countries in retail, financial services, banking, and other industries, such as transportation and manufacturing. The US is expected to have the highest market share among all the countries in the market during the forecast period. It is a technologically advanced country with strong regulations for various verticals.
