第七章 市场机会与未来展望

简介目录
Product Code: 66981

The mobile edge computing market is valued at USD 0.80 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 3.12 billion by 2030, advancing at a 31.34% CAGR.

Mobile Edge Computing - Market - IMG1

Intensifying demand for low-latency services, the maturation of 5G standalone (SA) networks, and the need to process ever-rising data volumes closer to end users are accelerating adoption. Hardware continues to anchor spending, yet rapid progress in software-defined infrastructure, container orchestration, and AI inference is shifting the balance toward service-centric revenue streams. Telcos, hyperscalers, and specialist start-ups increasingly view edge capabilities as a core differentiator that underpins premium connectivity, new enterprise services, and cost-effective AI deployment. Regulatory interest in data sovereignty, coupled with standardization efforts led by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), is further influencing market architecture and vendor strategies. Convergence among connectivity, cloud, and AI domains is reshaping competitive boundaries, compelling players to pursue cross-domain partnerships and vertical-specific solutions.

Global Mobile Edge Computing Market Trends and Insights

Latency-critical consumer apps (AR/VR gaming, livestreaming) gaining traction in Asia

AR/VR gaming and livestreaming continue to reshape network design by demanding sub-20 millisecond round-trip latency. Ericsson's trials show that relocating game servers to edge nodes can cut transport latency by 75%, sustaining fluid gameplay under fluctuating radio conditions. . Telecom operators in South Korea, where mobile gaming revenue exceeded USD 5.6 billion in 2024, have already deployed multi-access edge computing clusters near dense urban zones, enabling premium subscription tiers for latency-sensitive titles. Content providers benefit from higher retention and revenue per user, while operators monetize differentiated quality of experience. Similar patterns are emerging in Japan, China, and select U.S. markets as 5G SA coverage expands and device adoption grows.

Rapid 5G standalone roll-outs unlocking MEC monetization in North America

Forty-nine operators in 29 countries had launched 5G SA by mid-2024, but North American carriers lead in national coverage. T-Mobile's full-scale SA deployment permits deterministic network slicing aligned with edge workloads and underpins new service-level agreements for enterprise applications. Verizon targets sub-10 millisecond edge latency to enable VR, autonomous mobility, and real-time analytics. Revenue opportunities stem from pay-as-you-go exposure of network APIs, including quality-on-demand and location-based compute. Collaboration with hyperscalers accelerates application onboarding and shortens time-to-market for developers.

Absence of globally harmonized security & trust framework for multi-access edge

Edge infrastructure widens the attack surface because workloads, data, and orchestration span thousands of unattended nodes. Academic studies show a surge in DDoS and lateral-movement threats targeting cached content and orchestration APIs. Regulated sectors hesitate to migrate sensitive workloads until zero-trust reference models, secure enclave support, and federated identity standards mature. ETSI MEC working groups are drafting inter-domain trust specifications, yet full consensus remains years away, prolonging integration cycles and increasing compliance costs for multinational deployments.

Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

  1. Telco adoption of disaggregated Open RAN driving on-prem edge demand in Europe
  2. Industrial Time-Sensitive Networking mandates (IEC/IEEE 60802) in manufacturing hubs
  3. Scarcity of ruggedized micro-data-center hardware in extreme climates

For complete list of drivers and restraints, kindly check the Table Of Contents.

Segment Analysis

In 2024 the hardware segment accounted for 61% of mobile edge computing market revenue, anchored by investments in servers, rugged enclosures, and specialized network interface cards. Nevertheless, software is projected to grow at a 37.6% CAGR between 2025 and 2030-well above the overall mobile edge computing market growth rate-because orchestration, CI/CD pipelines, and AI frameworks unlock flexible deployment models. Edge orchestration suites now combine service meshes with policy engines that translate network slices into compute and storage reservations, enabling operators to launch new services in hours instead of months.

By 2025, software-defined functions will embed AI-powered resource schedulers, predictive maintenance, and zero-touch provisioning. Akamai's adoption of WebAssembly alongside Fermyon exemplifies lighter-weight execution that trims cold-start latency to sub-10 milliseconds, a prerequisite for interactive workloads. Consequently, hyperscalers and telcos are shifting R&D budgets toward platform software, even as they continue refreshing edge hardware every four to five years. Services-consulting, integration, and managed operations-are catching up as enterprises outsource complexity; demand for multi-vendor blueprints is particularly high among healthcare and manufacturing clients that operate hybrid private/public edge footprints.

The Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) Market is Segmented by Component (Hardware, Software, and More), End-User (Financial and Banking Industry, Retail, Healthcare and Life Sciences, and More), and Geography. The Market Forecasts are Provided in Terms of Value (USD).

Geography Analysis

North America generated 41.2% of mobile edge computing market revenue in 2024, leveraged by nationwide 5G SA connectivity, dense fiber backbones, and strong hyperscaler presence. AWS Wavelength Zones and Microsoft Azure Edge Zones have been deployed in more than 40 metropolitan areas, offering developers sub-20 millisecond round-trip latency for consumer and industrial apps . Regulatory scrutiny of cloud concentration prompts carriers to diversify suppliers, spurring collaborative ventures with infrastructure companies and semiconductor vendors.

Asia-Pacific is expected to register the fastest growth, at a 36.8% CAGR during 2025-2030, driven by multi-billion-dollar smart-city investments, robust manufacturing bases, and the world's highest mobile-gaming spending. China Mobile's trials with Huawei illustrate nation-scale edge roll-outs supporting AR-assisted maintenance on high-speed rail. Japan's telcos partner with console publishers to stream AAA titles without downloads, whereas India's Jio integrates MEC to reduce backhaul congestion while expanding rural coverage.

Europe emphasizes industrial applications, privacy, and data localization. ETSI's MEC standards assure cross-border service portability, and Vodafone's commitment to deploy Open RAN across 30% of masts by 2030 underscores the region's focus on supply-chain resilience. The Middle East advances giga-projects such as NEOM that embed cognitive edge infrastructure, while Africa and South America adopt MEC to alleviate latency for e-learning, telemedicine, and mining operations in remote zones.
