Intent-based Networking Market Outlook:
Intent-based Networking Market size was valued at USD 2.73 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 22.53 billion by 2035, registering around 23.5% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of intent-based networking is evaluated at USD 3.31 billion.
Intent-based networking is becoming increasingly popular as a result of using cloud computing to improve the security and intelligence of data centers. Algorithms enable end-to-end automation in intent-based networks. It is essential for large-scale data center and telecommunication operations because it enables scalability at a reduced cost. Over the projected period, there will be a sharp increase in market growth as businesses look to get beyond conventional network operating constraints. By 2025, 200 ZB of data will be kept in the cloud.
In addition, intent-based networking has the potential to enhance the IT enterprise as a whole. A high-level business policy that the network administrator defines serves as the foundation for intent-based networking architecture. The optimal resources for implementing the business policy across the network are automatically determined by the software. Thus, intent-based networking does away with the requirement for human intervention aside from authorization when used properly.
