The network packet broker market is expected to reach USD 849.4 million by 2023 from USD 585.4 million in 2018, at a CAGR of 7.73% between 2018 and 2023. Major drivers for the growth of the market are need for simplified data center management and automation, high demand for cloud services, and surge in internet multimedia content and web applications.
Of all the major end users of network packet brokers, enterprises hold the largest share of the network packet broker market. Increasing enterprise applications require high-performance connectivity, constant uptime, high throughput, and high reliability to manage a vast amount of data. To address these requirements, network packet brokers are being adopted in enterprises. Large enterprises across different industries have been increasingly adopting the digitization to improve their business processes. Also, the revolutionizing digitization in healthcare, e-commerce, banking, and education is the key driver for enterprise data centers, which will eventually drive the growth of the market for network packet brokers.
Among bandwidth, during the current times, the adoption of 1Gbps bandwidth NPBs is declining, relegated to low-bandwidth applications and legacy devices. The most common type of NPBs now is 10Gbps. 10Gbps network packet broker capture traffic from access switch uplinks and aggregation/core switches, which usually run at a speed of 10Gbps and higher. The 1 and 10 Gbps bandwidth network packet brokers are widely adopted across various sectors such as enterprises, telecoms, government organizations, and other service providers. Currently, network packet brokers with high bandwidth are gaining a lot traction in the market. As a result, the prices for 1 and 10 Gbps NPBs have been declining, which drives the adoption of these NPBs for the optimum network development. It is owing to these factor the market for 1 and 10 Gbps network packet broker is expected to hold the largest market share in 2018.
APAC is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the network packet broker market during 2018–2023. Increasing government initiatives and investments from technologically developing countries in APAC, such as India, Japan, China, Singapore, and Australia, are driving the growth for increasing deployments of data centers in the region, which in turn is expected to drive the market for NPBs. Also, the increasing number of small- and medium-scale enterprises and the adoption of digital technologies in them further drive the demand for NPBs. Moreover, the increasing penetration of the Internet and rising population of internet users in the region creates a massive amount of data that drive the demand for cloud-based services. All these parameters generate the need for high-performing switching solutions across the network infrastructure in data centers. These factors in turn are expected to drive the market for network packet brokers in this region during the forecast period.
“The need for streamlining monitoring architecture and reducing risk to the network is driving demand for NPBs in the enterprises segment”
There has been continuous increase in demand for network packet brokers, especially in enterprises, owing to the increasing demand of network management. Moreover, factors such as data center monitoring, virtualization and cloud computing have prompted companies to enhance network monitoring for superior network security, thereby fueling the market for NPBs.
Enterprises
Enterprises mostly rely on network traffic analyzer solutions to optimize their network infrastructure on a daily basis. Enterprises spend huge amounts of money on network resources to keep their network up and running all the time. This takes up a major portion of their time, leaving them with no time to form new strategies for the efficient use of network resource. Network packet brokers provide an effective way to manage and analyze the entire network, centralize, virtualize, and provide real-time applications and bandwidth management of the network to deliver critical business applications at a high speed.
Service Providers
Globally, the need for service providers is increasing at a rapid pace. Service providers comprise telecom, managed service providers (MSPs), internet service providers (ISPs), and cloud service providers (CSPs). These service providers use network packet brokers to manage, analyze, and optimize the entire network infrastructure.
Government Organizations
Nowadays, a vast amount of data are being delivered in the electronic format, and government agencies and departments are striving for a fast and reliable technology to process their data. The government sector is looking for a secure, reliable, and high-performance network connectivity at a low cost. NPBs have many applications in the government sector, which include flexible, scalable, on-demand resource optimization. NPBs offer the government sector a rapid disaster recovery from network failure, remote configuration, cybersecurity, and protection of critical network infrastructure from cyberattacks.
However, the presence of self-reliant enhanced servers inhibits the growth of the network packet broker market. Compatibility with the architecture of different data centers poses challenges to the market players.
