Growth in Software-defined Networking Adoption Drives the Global Market

According to Straits Research, "The global data center networking market size was valued at USD 26.31 billion in 2022. It is estimated to reach USD 44.52 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.02% during the forecast period (2023–2031)." Software-defined networking (SDN) in a data center is essential for decoupling the control from the program and connecting it to a software-based controller. SDN can be implemented on flexible and vendor-agnostic networks, which is advantageous for data center operators, network operators, and end users. In several locations, SDN adoption is acquiring traction. The implementation of SDN provides economic benefits to data center operators.

SDN enables customers to partition the network between the end user and the data center to implement distinct network security parameters for data traffic. Several customers have begun implementing software-defined networking to virtualize their operations. Isbank, a private bank based in Turkey, has adopted Huawei's software-defined data center networking solution to accommodate its expanding business requirements. Consequently, the increase in software-defined networking adoption is driving market growth.

Growing Adoption of AI and ML Creates Tremendous Opportunities

AI implementation in data centers will allow data center administrators to reduce OPEX. AI will reduce the personnel required for workload management and the burden on IT teams. Adopting artificial intelligence and machine learning will increase demand for software-defined networking solutions. In addition, adopting AI in data centers has prompted operators to employ network virtualization to enhance the speed and efficiency of network architecture.

Utilizing AI can improve data center infrastructure and increase demand for new technology switches and other network infrastructure. Demanding computing power applications such as artificial intelligence necessitate a fast interconnection infrastructure that can quickly transmit data, so the demand for ethernet switches with more ports will increase. Thus, the increasing adoption of AI and ML in data center networking will create opportunities for market expansion.
