Network Emulator Market - By Component (Hardware, Software), By Application (Software-Defined Wide Area Network [SD-WAN], Cloud, Internet of Things [IoT]), Industry Verticals (Telecom, Government & Defense, BFSI, Retail) & Forecast, 2023 - 2032

Network Emulator Market Size

Network Emulator Market size crossed USD 170 million in 2022 and is anticipated to record over 9% CAGR from 2023 to 2032. The industry growth is primarily driven by increasing adoption of IoT devices and SD-WAN technology solutions.
 

Increasing migration to cloud based infrastructure of enterprises due to extensive digitization is driving them to adopt network emulator solutions to validate network performance and Quality of Service. The market expansion is also driven by increasing cyberattacks. As network emulators test and validate network infrastructure, performance of network components before final deployment and reduce network downtime.
 

The rise in network traffic and network outages along with the current growing demand for 5G network services is driving telecom service providers to adopt robust network testing and emulation systems. The use of network emulator solutions helps them in testing 5G devices and base stations prior to the final deployment. This is anticipated to play a pivotal role in creating new opportunities for the network emulator market.
 

Lack of skilled workforce to hinder the market growth

The lack of technology expertise and skilled workforce is one the major factors affecting the market size. The companies train their IT teams with security and network administration skills. But they lack the knowledge of functional mechanism of innovative networking technologies. However, the positive outlook of market players towards employee training and development initiatives will mitigate this shortcoming.
 

Network Emulator Market Analysis

With respect to component, the hardware segment captured more than 75% market share in 2022, due to the rising demand for robust network emulators across large enterprises and increasing need to assess network performance will positively impact the market expansion.
 

Based on applications, the cloud application segment is poised to register more than 5% CAGR through 2032, propelled by increasing adoption of cloud computing services by companies. The network emulators help to emulate the network carrying large volumes of data transmitted by services providers as well as evaluate the performance.
