Insights-as-a-Service Market Driver

AI-driven Analytics and Cloud Adoption Fuel Market Growth

Organizations are increasingly making decisions with the help of data analytics, which creates demand for Insights-as-a-Service offerings. For example, 60% of financial institutions across North America use Insights-as-a-Service for risk management processes such as fraud detection (Federal Reserve). In addition, organizations can save costs by outsourcing analytics and forgoing the high costs affiliated with in-house capabilities. With scalability and flexibility in the services offered, Insights-as-a-Service fits enterprises of different sizes.

In fact, 85% of telecom companies in North America use Insights-as-a-Service for customer churn analytics (Federal Communications Commission). Modern enhancements in AI and ML further promote predictive modeling, while the transition to cloud offerings facilitates smooth access to real-time insights, as seen among 1,000+ smart cities in Europe using these platforms for traffic management (Smart Cities Marketplace, European Commission).

Insights-as-a-Service Market Restraint

Data Privacy, Integration, and Competition Hinder Market Growth

The growing data privacy regulations, such as GDPR compliance for 40% of U.K. IaaS providers (National Cyber Security Centre, U.K.), create hurdles for data processing and usage. Another barrier is integration complexity, which makes it difficult for businesses to merge insights platforms with legacy systems. As of the limited availability of professionals possessing skills in data analytics, the effective use of services has ultimately resulted in affected adoption rates. Lastly, the increasing entry of market players enhances the competition, which in turn has led to difficulties in differentiation and customer retention.

Insights-as-a-Service Market Opportunity

Emerging Markets Drive Insights-as-a-Service Market Growth Significantly

In the emerging markets, there is more than sufficient potential; for example, investment into rural digitalization in India has been a chance of USD 500 million (Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, India), among Insights-as-a-Service enabling wider adoption through other aspects of the industry. Industry-specific solutions further spur growth as seen in enabling 75% of healthcare providers in South Korea to leverage insights for genomics (Ministry of Science and ICT, South Korea).

Such partnership and collaboration add to referring capabilities as well as a rise in forecasting data as demand increases for predictive analytics. That is, 1.2 million data analytics jobs created in ASEAN due to the increase from adoption of IaaS (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) bode well for the industry's growth in terms of workforce development.
