North America Software Defined Networking Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By Offering, By Type (Open SDN, SDN via Overlay, SDN via API, and Hybrid SDN), By Application, By End-User, By Vertical, By Country and Growth Forecast, 2023 - 2030


The North America Software Defined Networking Market would witness market growth of 16.4% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030).

SDN enhances network security by enabling a more granular and dynamic control over traffic flows. With programmable policies and centralized management, organizations can respond quickly to security threats and implement access controls. The flexibility of SDN allows for implementing security policies that can adapt to changing threat landscapes. As the transitions to 5G technology, SDN plays a pivotal role in the evolution of network architectures. SDN provides the flexibility and programmability required to support the diverse and demanding use cases of 5G, ranging from enhanced mobile broadband to massive machine-type communications and ultra-reliable low-latency communications.

Integrating SDN with edge computing is a growing trend as organizations look to deploy applications and services closer to the network's edge. This reduces latency and enhances the overall performance of edge computing solutions. SDN's ability to dynamically manage and optimize network resources aligns well with the distributed nature of edge computing. Intent-based networking is gaining traction as a natural evolution of SDN. IBN focuses on translating high-level business intent into network policies, automating configuration, and managing network infrastructure. This trend reflects a shift towards more intuitive and business-aligned network management, reducing the complexity of manual configurations.

North America, particularly the United States and Canada, boasts advanced IT infrastructure, making it conducive to adopting cutting-edge technologies like SDN.
