The 5G subscriber data management market will grow from USD 6.848 billion in 2025 to USD 13.232 billion in 2030 at a CAGR of 14.08%.

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.
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.
