Increasing convergence of mobile and cloud technology due to the widespread use of connected mobile devices, the escalating demand for real-time services to run sophisticated applications on mobile devices, and continual technological advancements in wireless technology and cloud computing represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Mobile cloud refers to cloud-based information, programs, and services designed specifically for mobile and other portable devices. This is a hybrid computing solution which combines cloud computing, wireless networks, and mobile computing to enhance resources for mobile users, network operators, and computing providers. Mobile clouds utilize cloud computing to deliver applications and services that are powered by remote cloud servers or environments. There are three key deployment models of mobile cloud that include public, private, and hybrid, which offer services to subscribers based on their needs. With this technology, data processing and storage happen outside of mobile devices, thus providing improved synchronization of data since data is stored in one place and accessible from anywhere. By leveraging this IT architecture, mobile cloud computing applications efficiently maximize battery life, improve reliability and scalability, increase storage capacity and processing power, and simplify integration.
The convergence of mobile and cloud technology due to the increasing use of connected mobile devices requiring high computational power is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. This can be attributed to the easy availability and the widespread usage of smart mobile devices among the masses. The escalating demand for real-time services to run sophisticated applications on mobile devices is also acting as a significant growth-inducing factor for the market. Additionally, continual technological advancements in wireless technology and cloud computing, such as HTML5 technology, are creating a positive market outlook. In line with this, the increasing adoption of multimodal communication in numerous end-use industries is providing an impetus to the market on the global level. Moreover, a considerable rise in the consumer demand for ease of delivering competent cloud-based applications is creating lucrative opportunities in the market. The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and the internet of things (IoT) due to the augmenting need for service automation are further fueling the market. Some of the other factors propelling the market are increasing investments for improvements in network connections, growing requirements for centralized data management, rapid utilization of smartphones in various end-use applications, the advent of 5G network, and extensive research and development (R&D) activities.
