Mobile Edge Computing Market - Growth, Trends, Covid-19 Impact, and Forecasts (2023 - 2028)
The mobile edge computing market is expected to register a CAGR of 30.64% during the forecast period. Multi-access edge computing (MEC), popularly known as mobile edge computing, is a form of edge computing that brings cloud computing to the network's edge to increase its functionality. MEC is a result of the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) program that was first intended to place edge nodes on mobile networks but has since expanded to include the fixed (or eventually integrated) network. MEC permits operations in base stations, central offices, and other aggregation sites on the network, as opposed to traditional cloud computing, which takes place on distant servers, far from the user and device.
Key HighlightsThe MEC market comprises several global and regional players vying for attention in a fairly contested market space. However, the market is dominated by major vendors that cover a significant share of the market and compete to gain a foothold and become pioneers in different regional markets. Overall, the competitive rivalry among the vendors is expected to be high and remain the same during the forecast period.
