There has been a lot of buzz around the concept of Decentralized CDN (D-CDN) recently, but early reports of immense disruption are misplaced. However, as part of the Web 3.0 trend, where centralized cloud computing functions will become distributed across the third-party network edge, D-CDN will play an important role in supporting the inexorable growth of video consumption over the next decade.
To this end, in the period, we expect D-CDN to account for just 114.91 exabytes (EB) of data, by 2026, which is just over 1.1% of total CDN traffic. However, D-CDN will begin to turn heads, as a viable part of a Multi-CDN strategy by this point, and we expect it to grow strongly from the roots that it lays down during the period. Its exponential growth, toward the end of the period, shows no signs of slowing.
This report is critical for anyone that needs to understand the impact that Decentralized CDN and Web 3.0 will have on their business. The incumbent CDN providers are facing a growing hunger for video, and need to find ways to manage this growth inside their core infrastructure. With customers turning to Multi-CDN deployments to ensure that their viewers are always being served the best possible stream, Decentralized CDN will fit inside a Multi-CDN strategy.
This report includes:
- Numbers you can drop straight into your business case.
- An expectation of the shape of the Multi-CDN and Decentralized CDN market through 2026.
- A clear understanding of the initial scope of this market, without hype.
