Omdia estimates the telco network cloud market to grow roughly 12% in 2025 (up from 6% in 2024), with high single-digit growth continuing thereafter. Increasing maturity of the automation frameworks and cloud-native tooling is enabling CSPs to migrate quickly to and scale in cloud environments. The adoption of AI is also stimulating operators to boost investment in telco cloud infrastructure.
