Growing Security Concerns to boost the demand for Mobile Accelerator Market

The mobile accelerator market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 23.5% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030, up from US$ 2.31 Bn in 2021. Enhancement of digital environment and penetration of technology are the major growth driving factors for the market. Mobile accelerators are generally used for application speed enhancement. Mobile accelerators have different application such as device acceleration, content acceleration, WAN optimization and others. Increasing use of smart devices are another major growth-driving factor for the market. Therefore, we expect that the mobile accelerator market would demonstrate huge growth during the forecast period.

Source Optimization will led the Market

In 2021, global mobile accelerator market was segmented into source optimization, client/device optimization and network optimization. Source optimization segment has largest share in the same year with around 40% of the market revenue share in the same year. Increasing demand for optimization of content, network and web is the promising factor for the growth of the segment. To modularize the application development, app developers are incorporating mobile accelerators, which in turn are driving growth for the segment. Thus, we expect that the source optimization segment will show significant growth during the forecast period 2022-2030.

Asia Pacific will continue its Dominance

In 2021, Asia Pacific led the mobile accelerator market. Asia Pacific accounts for nearly 1/3rd of the market share in the same year. Asia Pacific has its dominance due to largest manufacturing hub for smartphones, tablets and other smart devices. Growth in the usage of smartphones and internet penetration are the major reasons for the growth of Asia Pacific. Developing economies of Asia Pacific such as China and India are major contributors owing to high number of tech hubs. As a result, we expect that Asia Pacific region will continue its dominance throughout the forecast period.
