India
network as a service (NaaS) Market is growing owning to the increasing data
consumption, which has spurred the need to storage and process data efficiently
along with rising government investment to provide NaaS. Vertical organizations
deploy network services to efficiently use resources, minimize capital
expenditures, improve service quality, and increase uptime. The rapid increase
in the number of devices that are being managed over multi and hybrid clouds
are proliferating the demand for network as a service. In addition, the growing
network complexity, increasing availability of skilled workforce, and operational
and development cost advantage across various end-use industries have led to an
increased focus on NaaS to overcome the situation of high data consumption. Moreover,
5G infrastructure investments for fast network connectivity have further
boosted the demand for NaaS. Government’s measures such as Digital India
initiative, emphasis on self-reliance, and adoption of advance technologies are
further increasing the capability for NaaS. Many enterprises are adopting NaaS
as a cost-effective solution. Moreover, the market is anticipated to grow due
to the rising demand for digital age networking, which enables businesses to
progress toward digital transformation and produce new business outcomes by
utilizing new digital age technologies such as the internet of things (IoT),
cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI), thereby relying on different
software. Additionally, the growing demand for data and high bandwidth
capacity, especially due to increasing smartphone users promotes the
development of the data center market of India.
A
cloud service paradigm known as network as a service, or NaaS, allows clients
to lease networking services from cloud providers. An intelligent and secure
NaaS enables enterprises to enjoy the importance of greater flexibility,
scalability, automation, predictability, and control to support the
high-performance hybrid environment. The network is one of the most critical
components in a digital initiative. In general, NaaS is a business model for
virtually subscribing to enterprise-wide area network services. Without having
to maintain their own networking infrastructure, NaaS enables users to manage
their own networks. NaaS can take the role of multiprotocol label switching
connections, virtual private networks (VPNs), and other dated network
architectures. Additionally, it can replace the position of on-premises
networking equipment such as load balancers and firewall appliances. The
business networking architecture has been significantly impacted by NaaS, a
more recent approach for traffic routing and enforcing security requirements.
The NaaS paradigm with sophisticated management capabilities enables
enterprises to depend on a reliable NaaS provider for non-differentiated,
everyday network administration. This improves the performance and security of
corporate networks while freeing up IT personnel time for duties that enable
business. Moreover, NaaS offers proactive network monitoring, security policy
enforcement, powerful firewall and packet inspection capabilities, and time-series
modelling of application and infrastructure performance.
Rapid
Adoption of Cloud and Digital Transformation by Indian Companies
People
are flocking to the cloud because of its scalability and low cost. Several
cloud service providers across the world have revealed their availability zones
in India, particularly in locations such as Hyderabad, Delhi (NCR), Chennai,
Mumbai, and Bengaluru since they have strong fiber connection in addition to
being close to clients. Three availability zones (AZs) are being built by
Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Hyderabad. Microsoft has purchased Hyderabad-area
property tracts to establish a new data center zone. While 67% of the large
enterprises already accelerated cloud adoption, 39% of medium-sized companies
and 38% of small companies embarked on their cloud journey. Moreover, Mumbai
and Delhi-NCR are Google's two cloud computing hubs in India. Enterprises such
as Yotta Infrastructure, NTT-Netmagic, STT GDC India, Sify Network as a Service
(NaaS)s, and CtrlS are building hyperscale data centers and data center parks
in India. Moreover, as cloud-managed services are a vital part of digital
transformation, their demand will further expand in the coming years. The
government's efforts to transform India into a global data hub have resulted in
several regulations and reforms that have given the essential framework for
this expansion. More new firms are expected to enter the market in the coming
years. Therefore, the rapid adoption of cloud and digital transformation by
Indian companies is driving the growth of the India network as a service (NaaS)
Market.
5G
Will Increase Investments in NaaS
NaaS
is gaining ground in the market due to the growing use of connected devices by
consumers and businesses. In many Tier II and Tier III cities as well as in
rural areas, this has resulted in a significant demand for higher-bandwidth
internet, necessitating the implementation of NaaS to process information on
comparison with big cities. Over 25.2 percent of Indian population with 189
Indian cities had 5G coverage as of January 2023, with significant market
participants, including Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel, and Vodafone Idea. In 256
cities, Reliance Jio is offering 5G connection. Bharti Airtel is covering more
than 80 cities, while Vodaphone is third. Throughout India, companies such as
Airtel are partnering up to design and build networks by using equipment from
large enterprises such as Nokia, Ericsson, and Samsung. Moreover, the 5G
implementation offers faster access to information, which will lead to more
network services deployments due to the surge in data consumption and
complexity. Furthermore, enterprises are extending their 5G coverage to new
locations across the region which necessitates the construction of the physical
infrastructure to facilitate the significant degree of data sharing. Hence,
increasing 5G investments are driving the growth of the India network as a
service (NaaS) market.
Rising
Demand for NaaS Fueling the Market Growth
The
need for cloud-based solutions is increasing due to the use of technology and
increasing customer preference for the cloud that allows users to access data
remotely. The demand for cloud-based solutions in business is growing as more
enterprises are realizing the importance of saving costs and resources by
moving data to the cloud instead of building and maintaining on-premises
infrastructure. According to the CISCO Global Cloud Index, by 2021, 94% of
all workloads and computing instances were handled by cloud data centers, while
traditional data centers handled only 6%. This demonstrates the potential
of adopting cloud-based contact centers in the future. Major financial businesses
such as banks and financial institutions are expected to increasingly adopt
cloud-based service offerings. Solution developers can source applications and
infrastructure components from many vendors to build hybrid cloud-based
solutions. On the contrary, the IT industry is still seeking for efficient
infrastructure. This has aimed at accelerating market expansion.
Over
the past decade, NaaS has been heavily used by IT organizations, with a clear
trend of adoption by non-IT organizations as well. This is due to the core
principles of NaaS that help enterprises deal with complex network systems and
processes within their organizations. NaaS can replace virtual private networks
(VPNs), multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) connections, or other traditional
network configurations. It can also replace local network hardware such as
firewall appliances and load balancers. This is expected to thrive the India
network as a service (NaaS) market during the forecast period.
