The market size is witnessing robust growth driven by the increasing demand for web performance optimization and protection against security threats. CDNs, with their localized caching and dynamic content delivery capabilities, play a crucial role in enhancing mobile engagement and digital experience delivery. As CDN providers bolster security measures such as DNS protection and QoS enhancement, they cater to diverse industries, especially the media and entertainment sector, where high-quality audio and video content delivery is paramount. With the proliferation of OTT and VOD services, CDN security solutions ensure the safe and seamless delivery of digital content, including 4K and Ultra HD video streaming, across high-speed networks worldwide.
The growing consumption of online content is the key factor driving the market. The global over-the-top (OTT) market has witnessed high growth in recent years. In addition, the Internet speed is increasing globally. The global average speed of the Internet increased to 85 Mbps in 2020, as compared to around 64 Mbps in 2019. Developing countries such as India and China witnessed a dramatic increase in internet speed. Furthermore, network providers globally are providing monthly or weekly Internet packages at low prices. These schemes allow consumers to connect to the Internet at an affordable price.
Further, low-cost data plans offered by network providers have led to an increase in the number of Internet users. This has increased the demand for digital content as consumers can easily access the Internet via various mediums. Various OTT platforms provide country-specific content. They provide the required CDN for data transmission specific to a region and prevent the delivery of content in specific regions due to government regulations.
The proliferation of mobile applications is one of the major market trends. The number of mobile applications has increased significantly and is expected to rise further during the forecast period. Besides social media applications, two-thirds of the total number of smartphone users globally watch the news, listen to music, or access entertainment or sports applications. These mobile applications use a CDN for data delivery. Companies are targeting their audience based on the type of mobile applications that they download.
Moreover, the proliferation of mobile applications has triggered the demand among OTT providers. Brands and agencies no longer focus on web content because of the proliferation of mobile applications and latency-free online gaming experience. The consumption of digital content via smartphones is increasing rapidly with the penetration of smartphones worldwide. Such factors will increase the market size during the forecast period.
System integration and interoperability issues are major challenges to the market. The adoption of advanced technologies in various industries, including the BFSI, telecommunication, transportation, media and entertainment, and public sector companies, is increasing significantly. The adoption of advanced technologies leads to system integration and interoperability issues. Many organizations face integration issues while implementing CDN security solutions. The companies should provide unified IT solutions that can be seamlessly integrated with the existing IT infrastructure of organizations.
Moreover, technical glitches during operations can incur high costs for organizations and reduce their operational efficiency. Technical defects, server errors, and other malfunctions caused by hacking are some of the key issues faced. Therefore, to ensure high accuracy, companies must conduct several trials before introducing to the market. This factor is expected to hinder the market size during the forecast period.
