CAMPBELL, Calif., Oct. 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile Experts
just released the industry's first fully researched, comprehensive,
unbiased forecast for Edge Computing. "Fully researched" means that
this forecast is the result of twelve previous reports which
examined specific business cases and ROI examples to determine
business value and growth potential. "Comprehensive" means
that the new forecast includes predictions for service revenue,
data center deployment, and server shipments as well as CPU/GPU
core shipments. "Unbiased" means that Mobile Experts takes an
objective view of the balance of power between Telcos, Cloud
Players, Neutral Hosts, and Enterprises. Because Mobile
Experts doesn't owe allegiance to any one group, the research firm
can make unbiased conclusions.
In Edge Computing, Mobile Experts anticipates the global market
for connected edge computing services to grow to about $7 billion in 2025. As much as two
thirds of service revenue will accrue to the Cloud players, but
Telcos, Neutral Hosts, and Enterprises will play important roles in
hosting sites and providing connectivity.
This new report provides a view of different business
models that will play out in a variety of vertical markets cropping
up for edge computing. In a series of ten case study reports,
Mobile Experts has examined the economics of media streaming,
gaming, retail, manufacturing, oil & gas, transportation, and
other markets to define the best business model for each vertical
market. This insight, validated with dozens of
interviews with Cloud players and others, results in the most
accurate view of Edge Computing available.
"Enterprise markets are ramping up, and the market will see
significant revenue in the automotive, industrial, and retail
arenas," commented Chief Analyst Joe
Madden. "Telcos themselves will also become Edge Computing
customers, by using cloud platforms to virtualize their
networks."
According to the report, telcos and ISPs will add value through
wholesale aggregation of local compute capacity, and by offering
connectivity at various tiers of service. Some operators will move
up to 5G to gain premium pricing for low-latency or
high-reliability connections, while others will be satisfied with
local real estate hosting edge cloud data centers.
"In 2025, we predict that more than half of 'edge data centers'
will be on-premises, hosted by an enterprise. Another 20-25% will
be hosted by the telcos or ISPs. Over a decade or more, we expect
the maturing market to shift so that public edge cloud takes a more
prominent role, so every small business can reap the benefits of
automation."
Mobile Experts predicts at least 20 years of strong growth for
edge computing. The forecast predicts rapid growth to
hundreds of thousands of Edge servers, with millions of CPU and GPU
cores shipped in the 2025 timeframe.
