The India Content Delivery Network Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 792.5 million in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 13.3% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
A content delivery network is a globally distributed network of proxy servers deployed in multiple data centers. The goal of CDN is to distribute content closer to the end users in order to improve performance, security and reliability when compared to serving directly from its origin. CDNs enable higher download speeds and better quality of streaming video. They also provide protection from cyber threats and DDoS attacks.
Market key trends:
One of the major trends driving growth of the India CDN market is increased content consumption over mobile networks. India has witnessed tremendous growth in internet and smartphone users over the past few years. Higher adoption of 4G networks and cheap data plans have made access to content easier. However, limited bandwidth on mobile networks can impact user experience. CDNs help in caching content at edge locations close to users resulting in faster load times and seamless streaming even on mobile networks. This has boosted demand from content providers seeking to enhance mobile experience of their users in India.
