Market Trends of Telecom Managed Services Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Telecom Managed Services Market according to our research experts:
Rise in the Usage of Cloud Computing is Expected to Drive the Market Growth Significantly
- The telecom sectors have been significantly impacted by cloud computing. For the past five years, cloud computing has experienced tremendous growth in popularity. It greatly affects the business, technology, and information technology sectors. This has caused a rise in global spending on cloud computing. Overall, it decreased operational and administrative costs in the telecom sector while preserving unified communication and teamwork with an extensive Content Delivery Network. Cloud service providers let the telecom industry concentrate on core business functions rather than IT, server updates, or upkeep concerns.
- The primary drivers of the market's growth are the increasing adoption of cloud computing technologies, especially by small and medium-sized businesses, and the rapid advancement of technology, including mobility and big data services, to improve operational efficiency. Cloud Computing offers a broad range of opportunities in the telecom industry. It could help companies improve their business and use technology more efficiently, so it has significantly increased the reach of telecommunications worldwide using advanced technologies. Some of its benefits include Cloud Delivery Model, Communication Services, Network Services, Highly scalable and flexible infrastructure, Efficient and flexible resource allocation and management, etc. Moreover, using cloud computing, service providers can provide software at lower rates with the help of virtualization and provisioning software, allocating efficient computing resources and thus reducing hardware costs as well.
- The market is witnessing several acquisitions, mergers, and investments by key players as part of its strategy to improvise business and its presence to reach customers and meet their requirements for various applications. For instance, recently, in the last quarter of this year, Colt Technology Services and IBM's cooperative relationship took a new direction when the two joined up to open a new Industry 4.0 lab in the United Kingdom where businesses can try edge cloud services. While IBM will give its Maximo Application Suite and Cloud Satellite hybrid cloud, Colt will contribute its Colt Edge computing platform and SD-WAN technology. With three critical edge use cases-visual inspection-based inferencing, supply chain telemetry, threat monitoring, and data protection-the duo initially focuses on the manufacturing industry.
- Moreover, in the Q4 of the year 2022, Amazon Web Services declared the introduction of a new cloud computing region in Switzerland. Through 2036, the corporation would add 2,500 full-time employees yearly in various sectors, including engineering, telecommunications, facility maintenance, and construction, due to the Europe AWS area. According to AWS, three availability zones make up the new cloud region in Zurich. Each availability zone's data centers have access to separate power, physical security, a cooling system, and a low-latency network connection. These availability zones should offer improved fault tolerance for high-availability applications to ensure minimal service interruption.
- As per Digital Ocean, In 2021, 74 % of enterprises indicated using cloud hosting/infrastructure services such as AWS EC2 or Azure VMs. Enterprises are also using the platform as a service (PaaS) solution, including Heroku or Azure App Service, to a great extent. Notably, traditional small and midsize businesses generally use fewer cloud services and therefore have less complex cloud setups. Hence the overall rise in the usage of cloud hosting/infrastructure services by enterprises will drive the market exponentially.

North America to Dominate the Telecom Managed Services Market
- North America held the most significant market share and is anticipated to dominate the telecom-managed services market during the forecast period. The market will experience an abrupt rise in this region. The factors encouraging the growth of the market in North America include quickly evolving technological developments, the presence of the world's largest telecom firms looking to optimize their network investments & intensify customer satisfaction, and rising network cyber-attacks in this region.
- Moreover, the rise in misconfigured servers within the region is also one of the significant reasons behind the market expansion. Various firms are experiencing misconfigured servers which lead to the prime cause of personal data being compromised. Hence, they are significantly turning to telecom-managed service providers for their overall ability to reduce security-related risks with their value-added services. Recently this year, Microsoft, a US-based company, confirmed that a misconfiguration of a Microsoft server endpoint exposed specific customer data, including emails and personal information.SOCRadar has identified that sensitive data of around 65,000 entities became public due to this misconfigured server. Hence, the rise in misconfigured servers in the region significantly drives the market's growth.
- Moreover, with the speedy acceleration of modern technology and the need for streamlined IT functions, an increasing number of businesses in the region are finding it best to keep pace with the help of Telecom MSP. Additionally, the market is witnessing various product launches and innovations by key players as part of its strategy to improve business and their presence to reach customers and meet their requirements for multiple applications.
- For instance, earlier this year, to provide fast, flexible, and secure wireless cellular access to any number of fixed sites, anywhere, AT&T offered AT&T Managed Wireless WAN, a plug-and-play system run by AT&T network professionals. Moreover, in the 2nd quarter of this year, Emersion, whose powerful business automation platform supercharges billing, provisioning, and order flow for telecom, MSP, and utility businesses, announced the acceleration of its presence in North America.
- Further, the penetration of smartphones and tablets is increasing in the United States, which in turn is driving the BYOD policy. The increasing penetration of devices and robust network connectivity across the region are expected to encourage organizations to adopt BYOD policies. Additionally, the presence of key telecom players in the region and the increasing deployment of data centers is expected to drive the market. Also, the rise in the need for improved operational efficiency and reliability in business processes is exponentially driving the market in the region.
