The global edge computing market size was valued at USD 11.99 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow from USD 15.96 billion in 2023 to USD 139.58 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 36.3% during the forecast period. North America market size was worth USD 4.13 Billion in 2022.


Edge computing is a technology of processing and storing data closer to the source to allow rapid and real-time analysis. It is a mesh network of micro data centers processing and storing data locally and pushing all received data to the cloud storage.


The global market is set to grow exponentially due to the increased use of edge devices. These devices range from Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as mobile point-of-sale kiosks, smart cameras, industrial PCs and medical sensors, to gateways and computing infrastructure for faster and real-time insights on the data source. According to Gartner, 75% of data will be created outside central data centers by 2025. Emerging technologies, such as Industry 4.0, artificial intelligence, and IoT are likely to boost the edge computing market during the forecast period.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Digital Transformation Caused by Pandemic Boosted the Product Demand


The COVID-19 pandemic caused considerable impact on enterprises as they are accelerating and improving their digital transformation and turning to technology to help them adapt to any scenario. The outbreak has affected the market growth as well, with edge hardware devices experiencing a decline in production. As trade restrictions were enforced during the early stage of the pandemic, the production of edge chip sets, servers, and other devices were put on a hold, affecting the global market progress.


However, with the rapid adoption of advanced technologies and digitalization, businesses have developed innovative uses of edge devices. For instance, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Sensormatic video-based AI solution aided retailers in opening stores safely by tracking occupancy and monitoring social distancing.


Also, with the rising introduction of IoT medical applications, edge computing proved to be a life-saving technology for the healthcare industry during the COVID-19 outbreak. Work-from-home provisions, video conferencing applications, and business automation & intelligence boosted the growth of the edge computing market.

Rising Introduction of AIoT and Enormous Investments to Bolster Market Growth


Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) has gained immense traction in recent years. From fitness trackers to AR & VR goggles and smart public transit, AI and machine learning are rapidly being used to make IoT devices more secure. With the help of AIoT, networks and systems are becoming capable of solving problems across industry verticals. The introduction of AI in programs, chipsets, and edge infrastructure can improve analytics and decision-making processes.


Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are being rapidly adopted by both developed and developing economies. Metaverse-based online games, virtual shopping, and smart cities are connecting with digital worlds, enabling consumers to have a virtual experience.


According to the IDC report 2022, global spending on AR/VR was USD 13.8 billion in 2022 and is expected to grow to USD 50.9 billion by 2026. The need for real-time applications on edge networks combined with hybrid-cloud technologies plays a significant role in creating virtual worlds.


For instance, in November 2021, Philips launched an AI powered platform to improve diagnosis from imaging scans. This simplified the process of collecting and sharing patient data.


DRIVING FACTORS


Surging Need of Edge Infrastructure for 5G Network to Drive Market Growth


Edge-powered SaaS on 5G networks are gaining popularity. Companies across the world are integrating their services with the cloud, but with increased online reliance on IoT and AI devices, there is heavy data and processing traffic.


With the rollout of 5G, investments by global companies continue to increase. More than 380 telecom operators are investing in 5G to boost their speed and agility. Edge computing with 5G/6G infrastructure can reduce complexity, save costs, and strengthen cybersecurity defenses.


For instance, in June 2021, IBM Corporation collaborated with new edge partners to drive digital transformation for enterprise clients. The company partnered with over 30 partners including Capgemini, Atos, Foghorn, HP Inc., Lenovo, and more. This partnership will help businesses infuse client operations with edge technology by leveraging artificial intelligence, hybrid cloud, and 5G.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Initial Capital Investments Might Restrain Market Growth


The high initial investment can confine the edge computing market growth. The installation and maintenance of edge infrastructure can increase the CAPEX of many companies. It is hard to construct a complete and robust solution, as investing in edge nodes, devices, and data centers can be quite expensive.


Securing the entire computing network results also incurs huge costs for the providers, thereby restraining market expansion.


SEGMENTATION


By Component Analysis


Deployment of Hardware Solutions across Several Industries to Aid Market Growth


Based on component, the market is divided into hardware, application/software, edge cloud infrastructure, services, and network. The hardware segment generated maximum revenue for the market in 2022.


Hardware edge vendors are increasing their investments in edge computing across the globe. For instance, HPE invested around USD 4 billion over four years and is enhancing its already launched an edge computing device, Edgeline Converged Edge Systems.


In the coming years, the demand for such edge services is expected to increase. Companies including Intel Corporation and Dell Technologies Inc. are engaging in strategic investments to develop and enhance edge intelligence tools for commercial and industrial IoT.
