Managed MPLS Market Size

Managed MPLS Market Analysis

The Managed MPLS Market size is estimated at USD 68.87 billion in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 92.13 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5.99% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

With the rapidly growing global expansion of enterprises, there is an increased demand for secure connectivity among multiple business units and effective means for data management, which is one of the significant factors boosting MPLS networks' adoption.

• Several enterprises rely on virtual private cloud services on MPLS VPNs to achieve high performance and critical communication, as they provide the benefits of a private network with the economics of a public network. This is because VPC services create logical 'private' partitions within a public cloud environment, providing the benefits of a dedicated private cloud but on a more cost-effective and flexible basis.
• The emergence of SD-WAN is expected to significantly impact the networking market due to its speed and simplicity. However, SD-WAN cannot compete with security and reliability, thus pushing companies to implement a conjunction of the two. This is expected to create more significant opportunities for the managed MPLS market.
• The market studied is also expected to improve business intelligence and security surveillance applications by offering real-time video information. Additionally, the need for minimal investments to integrate analytics software with the existing surveillance infrastructure has been a significant factor that has prompted enterprises, irrespective of size, to invest in this technology and attain a significant return on investment (ROI).
• Other prominent trends projected to augment the global managed MPLS market's growth include increasing BYOD policies, growing adoption of cloud services (like computing and analytics), and rising smartphone penetration. Owing to the increased adoption of BYOD policies, Cisco Systems stated that companies favoring BYOD make an annual saving of USD 350 per year per employee.
• Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the demand for remote work solutions has seen a surge due to organizations transitioning from their conventional workplace methods to work-from-home scenarios. These impacts must be carefully considered in the context of the organization's cybersecurity as more and more personal unsecured devices start accessing the organization's network; the risk of compromising network security increases.
• For instance, according to Centrify, over two-thirds (70%) of UK businesses are using MFA and a virtual private network (VPN) to manage the security risks posed by the increase in remote working environments due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
