Market Research Future (MRFR) anticipates a phenomenal CAGR of 51.7% in the global virtualized evolved packet core market over the forecast period of 2018-2023, driven by surging demand for LTE communication technology and the need to increase the capacity, coverage, and minimization of capital and operational expenditure.
The evolution of mobile communications from the first generation to the current fourth-generation necessitates increasing the capacity and coverage of the communication. Moreover, the incessant need for minimization of capital and operational expenditure is a critical factor which fosters the growth of the market. In this regard, virtualized evolved packet core has gained massive momentum as they help transfer the individual component of a specified core network and run it on software that is operated on low cost commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) servers and helps in convergence of data and voice on 4G LTE networks and thus assist in reduction of capital and operational expenditure.
As networking software has made its transition to virtualization, telecommunication operators are facing challenges from location-based distributed virtual network functions.
This challenge can be overcome by combining probe/packet brokering functions with evolved packet core (EPC) at a single location. The use of virtualized EPC to create a centralized location for managing the transmission of data over an LTE network can bolster market demand over the forecast period.
Other benefits of virtual EPC such as making major functions such as charging and changes in policy rules easily accessible to mobile network operators can bode well for the market. Furthermore, the packet data node gateway which acts as a medium for maintaining service quality and inspection of data packets is likely to gain the attention of operators and influence overall market demand.
Advancement in technologies such as 5G, IoT, and M2M is expected to boost the demand for virtualized evolved packet core solutions. The virtualized Evolved Packet Core will offer significant opportunities for mobile operators to strengthen their current businesses. With the increase in data traffic, CSPs will be more inclined to implement vEPC solutions for commercialization of 5G network which will provide growth opportunities to the global virtualized evolved packet core market.
