Market Overview:
The global telecom application programming interface (API) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for telecom API services from internal telecom developers, long tail developers, enterprise developers, and partner developers. In addition, the growing demand for cloud-based services and rising adoption of 5G technology are also contributing to the growth of the global telecom API market. Based on type, identity management is expected to be one of the fastest-growing segments in the global telecom API market during 2018–2030. This can be attributed to increasing need for authentication and authorization across different industries such as banking & financial services, retail & ecommerce, healthcare & life sciences etc., which is fueling demand for identity management APIs. In terms of region, North America is expected to hold a dominant position in terms of revenue contribution in 2018 followed by Europe.
Product Definition:
Telecommunications Application Programming Interface (API) is a set of routines, protocols and tools that allow software developers to create applications that can interact with telecommunications network elements. Telecom API's provide a way for developers to query or control network elements such as switches, routers and gateways. Telecom API's are also used to provision new services and manage customer accounts. The importance of telecom API's lies in the fact that they provide a way for developers to build innovative new applications that can help service providers increase revenue and improve customer satisfaction.
Identity Management:
Identity management is a set of processes and technologies that help to safeguard the privacy and security of an individual while using multiple services over a network. It helps in providing access control, authentication, authorization management for user identification and service provisioning. The key application areas where identity management solutions are used include BFSI (Banking, Financial Services & Insurance), government agencies/sectors, telecom companies along with other sectors such as healthcare & education.
Maps & Location:
The global maps and location market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The major driver for this market is increasing adoption of location-based services in various industries such as retail, transportation, telecom, hospitality among others. Additionally, growing penetration of smartphones and enhanced communication services has also led to increased usage of maps & location technology by application developers across the globe.
Application Insights:
The internal telecom developer application is expected to be the largest segment over the forecast period. The increasing need for developing efficient applications for managing customer relationships, network management and billing is driving this growth. Internal telecom developers are in high demand as they can directly access to system resources such as databases and hardware through APIs. This makes it easy to integrate different systems together without having knowledge of underlying protocols or technicalities related to communication networks.
The long tail developer application segment is expected register significant growth over the forecast period owing to increased adoption of OTT services by businesses and enterprises that offer innovative new products & services requiring less frequent software updates over the internet than via traditional phone lines or wireless connections at a cheaper cost with improved quality which has led them adopting an OTT service thereby reducing their dependence on legacy systems resulting in reduced IT costs along with improved operational efficiency leading them towards developing an Application Programming Interface (API) thus driving market growth across regions globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the overall market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position through 2030, with the U.S. being at the forefront of growth and innovation across all telecom APIs.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to emerge as one of the most promising regions over the next eight years owing to increasing investments by key industry players such as Google Inc., Apple Inc.
The Middle East & Africa (MEA) market has also witnessed significant traction over recent years on account of growing adoption by developers working on M2M applications, home automation devices.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for cloud-based services and applications: The telecom API market is expected to grow at a high rate owing to the increasing demand for cloud-based services and applications. Telecom operators are increasingly offering their APIs to enable third-party developers to create innovative services that can be integrated with operator networks, which is driving the growth of the telecom API market.
- Proliferation of connected devices: The number of connected devices is growing rapidly, which is resulting in an increase in data traffic. This is fueling the demand for telecom APIs that can help reduce network congestion and improve performance. In addition, telecom operators are also using APIs to develop new revenue streams by monetizing their subscriber data through partner companies.
- Emergence of 5G technology: 5G technology offers several advantages over 4G such as higher bandwidth, lower latency, and increased capacity that will drive its adoption in various industries including telecommunications. This will create opportunities for players in the telecom API market as they look to capitalize on this new technology by developing innovative products and services that can take advantage of its features.
