The top three revenue contributing core solution segments are discussed below
Global CDN market by web performance optimization: The global CDN market by web performance optimization is projected to experience significant growth during the forecast period owing to the ability of CDNs to offer high quality of service (QoS) to end-users by streamlining access to online content. Opting CDN over standard hosting ensures that the content is delivered from a server located closest to the end user and enhances the overall UX (user experience), which is propelling their adoption for web performance optimization on a global scale.
“The growing dependency on search engines such as Google is one of the key driving forces behind the growth of the global CDN market by web performance optimization. The industry analysts at Technavio estimate the market to account for a revenue of almost USD 9 billion by 2021,” says Ujjwal Doshi, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on Internet and e-commerce.
Global CDN market by media delivery: The growth of the global CDN market by media delivery is anticipated to be driven by the ability of CDN to assist with the delivery of flawless streaming of media contents. Furthermore, CDNs can allow consumers to access HD video contents on any screen. Some major media offerings by CDNs in this segment include the seamless delivery of over-the-top video, games, social media, news, and software updates at a fast network speed.
Global CDN market by cloud security: Cloud CDNs help in lowering the network latency, reduce serving costs, and offload origins. In 2015, Google adopted cloud CDN to leverage its globally distributed edge points of presence. By using cloud CDN, the company aimed to speed-up the content delivery for websites and applications that are served out of Google Compute Engine and Google Cloud Storage. The global CDN market by cloud security is expected to account for a market revenue of around USD 6 billion by the end of the forecast period.
