Based on offering, the platform segment is expected to lead the IIoT platform market during the forecast period

IIoT platforms connect various devices, sensors, machines, routers, controllers, gateways, and edge computing systems centrally to streamline business processes and increase operational efficiency. The IIoT platform can be consumed as a technology suite, an open, general-purpose application platform, or both in conjunction. IIoT platforms are engineered to support the safety, security, and mission-criticality requirements associated with industrial assets and their operating environments. In addition, IIoT platforms monitor IoT endpoints and event streams, and support and translate various manufacturer and industry proprietary protocols. IIoT platform also analyzes data at the IoT edge and in the cloud.

Based on platforms, the application enablement platform segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period

The application enablement platform is designed to ease the management of various applications, including packing, deployment, and a containerized Software-Defined Environment (SDE). The application enablement platform helps manage distinct application provisioning and ensure application-level security services. Moreover, application enablement platforms are being deployed to address the needs, such as intelligent product enhancements, dynamic response to market demands, lower costs, optimized resource use, and waste reduction.

Based on services, the support and maintenance segment is expected to lead the IIoT platform market during the forecast period

The support and maintenance service segment in the IIoT platform market is driven by the complexity of IIoT systems, the need for technical expertise, the continuous improvement of platforms, the requirement for high reliability and minimal downtime, security and risk mitigation, compliance and regulatory adherence, and performance optimization.

Based on application area, the asset management segment is expected to lead the IIoT platform market during the forecast period

With the explosion of low-cost sensors, location-based services with GPS, affordable connectivity, and gateways, more and more assets are being equipped with tracking devices, sensors, and actuators, thus providing a centralized connection to the IIoT platform. IIoT platform-enabled asset management solutions minimize these risks by updating component locations as soon as they arrive. Asset management is instrumental in managing physical assets and equipment performance on the manufacturing floor. Protecting physical assets, such as plants, machinery, and fleet, is the backbone of manufacturing operations. The asset management industrial application is crucial, as it provides a unified view of operations to all stakeholders and is instrumental in maintaining the effectiveness of manufacturing enterprises.

Based on vertical, the discrete industry segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period

The discrete industry manufactures and produces distinct units, such as automobiles, furniture, toys, smartphones, and airplanes. Discrete industry comprises a variety of verticals, such as automotive, machine manufacturing, semiconductor and electronics, medical devices, and logistics and transportation. IIoT platforms help these industries by offering solutions, such as predictive management, workforce tracking, and logistics and supply chain management, which enable organizations to improve operational efficiency, enhance asset life, and reduce downtime.

APAC is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period

APAC is the fastest-growing region in the IIoT platform market; this growth can be attributed to the significant adoption of advanced technologies, the proliferation of IoT-enabled devices, continuously enhancing network connectivity, and government initiatives for IoT. From a spending point of view, China is the top spender on IoT in the region, followed by South Korea and India. APAC is a strong adopter of IoT-based devices due to its unique combination of government advocacy, manufacturing roots, and R&D know-how. APAC is taking aggressive initiatives to leverage the IT infrastructure, enabling commercial users to adopt the IIoT platform. The presence of IoT vendors, such as TATA Communications, Wipro, Samsung, and Hitachi, is one factor driving the IIoT platform's growth in APAC. The growth potential in APAC is attracting international IoT vendors to offer their IIoT platform in the region.
