5G Subscriber Data Management Market Size, Share, Opportunities, And Trends By Solution (Subscriber Data Repository, Subscriber Policy Management, Others), By Deployment (Cloud, On-Premises), And By Geography - Forecasts From 2024 To 2029

The 5G subscriber data management market is poised to grow from US$5.987 billion in 2022 to US$15.318 billion in 2029 at a CAGR of 14.36%.

• Improved mobile connectivity coverage and mobile subscribers have bolstered the market growth.

The 5G service-based architecture (SBA) enables operators to secure their 5G investments by leveraging their relationship with subscribers, which also assists them in maintaining their competitive edge. Hence, the emphasis is on maintaining a robust, agile, and comprehensive solution for managing subscriber, device, and network function data. Key features of 5G data management solutions include service personalization, being cloud-native, offering high performance & security for the data layer, and supporting distributed data management. The ease of integration with other network applications and functions further bolsters the network coverage.

The boom in demand for high-performance wireless connectivity and led to various efforts to minimize the coverage gap of internet connectivity globally. With the growing 5G subscriber penetration, the demand for 5G subscriber data management is anticipated to grow positively. For instance, according to the GSM’s research report “Mobile Economy-2023”, the global 5G adoption is set to reach 54% by 2030. The same source stated that from 2017 to 2022, the mobile internet gap has narrowed from 50% to 41%. Such bolstering growth in subscriber strength indicates the user base expansion, which would further lead to 5G infrastructure development. This increases the network efficiency and scope of efficient data management, augmenting the overall 5G subscriber data management market expansion.

EMERGING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE 5G SUBSCRIBER DATA MANAGEMENT MARKET

• CLOUD AND ON-PREMISE SOLUTIONS

Based on deployment type, the 5G subscriber data management market is analyzed into cloud and on-premise in which the former is set to show the quickest segment growth. The development of 5G service-based architecture (SBA) improves core network efficiency and further bolsters flexible data management for various data types, such as device, network function, applications, and subscriber data. The 5G data management solutions also support cloud-native & distributed technologies, which reduce operational costs, improve service personalization, and ease of integration with other network components.

The growing wireless connectivity has accelerated the pace of cloud computing to process and manage personalized and commercial data thereby opening new doors for 5G subscriber data management.

For instance, 

• In February 2024, Ericsson and Brazilian communication service provider TIM Brazil successfully implemented a cloud-native user database in the company’s 5G Core network powered “Red Hat OpenShift”. The initiative bolstered TIM’s 5G evolution strategy that emphasized improving the 5G service agility and operational efficiency for the telecommunication sector.
• In March 2023, ZTE Corporation formed a strategic partnership with BCX at the “Mobile World Congress 2023”, which aimed to deploy digital solutions inclusive of private 5G, data center infrastructures, and private clouds, among others, for various industrial sectors in South America. Likewise, in the same event, ZTE, along with other strategic partners such as China Mobile, initiated the “5G New Calling Industry Development Forum” to explore new opportunities for 5G services for various applications.
