Insight into the Content Delivery Network (CDN) Market in Latin America

This insight provides a market overview, revenue forecasts, drivers, restraints, challenges, opportunities, and a competitive landscape for the Latin American content delivery networks (CDN) market. The author's market definition is limited to storage and distribution revenues for CDN vendors. Reseller revenues, licensed/managed CDN revenues, and in-house CDN expenditure are not counted.

The Latin American CDN market, thus far, has not lived up to its full potential due to regulatory issues and high technology costs for businesses. Over-the-top (OTT) traffic has also not grown to its full potential owing to limited broadband penetration, difficulties of electronic billing, and the limited availability of adequately localized businesses. However, an upswing in growth is imminent as these challenges are overcome.
