Methodology and sourcing behind the figures shown above.

Content delivery network and edge delivery

Estimates draw primarily on the provided market reports. Mordor Intelligence reports a global CDN market size of USD 29.34 billion in 2026 with an 11.71% CAGR (2026–2031) and is used as the primary global estimate. Future Market Insights provides a lower 2026 estimate (USD 18.84B) but a higher long-run CAGR (15.6% to 2036), while MarketsandMarkets gives a US-specific view ($5.717B in 2023, 8.7% CAGR to 2028). The Mordor figure was chosen as a conservative, recent global benchmark within the range of sources.

Video content delivery and edge streaming

Primary estimate uses Mordor Intelligence’s ‘Edge Streaming Infrastructure for OTT’ report (edge-focused market) which cites a 2026 market size of USD 3.75B and a 16.45% CAGR to 2031. Broader video streaming software reports (MarketResearchFuture, Fortune Business Insights, MarketsandMarkets) show global streaming-software markets in the mid-to-high teens CAGR (≈13.6–16.7%) and multi‑billion USD bases, which corroborates the edge segment’s mid‑teens growth trajectory.

Edge computing and application deployment

Primary estimate based on MarketsandMarkets projection, which reports a global edge computing market of USD 111.34 billion in 2026 and a 23.3% CAGR (2026–2031). Additional sources show a wide range depending on scope: mobile edge is a much smaller subsegment (PMR: US$1.1B in 2026, CAGR 27.5%), some firms project faster expansion to 2030 (SphericalInsights: USD 157.91B by 2030, CAGR 37.9%), while combined edge+cloud studies show lower blended growth (WiseGuy: USD 94.2B in 2025, CAGR 7.8%). I used the MarketsandMarkets figure as the primary market-size and CAGR input for the edge computing and application deployment segment, with other reports providing context and range.

Web application and API protection

Primary estimate uses market research reporting specific to WAAP/WAF: WiseGuy projects a WAAP market of USD 9.36B in 2025 with a 10.3% CAGR (2026–2035). Other search results show variation by scope: WAF-only sizing (USD 6.47B in 2024, higher CAGR) and broader application-security sizing (USD 13.63B in 2026, ~11.5% CAGR). Smaller WAAP-specific estimates (USD 628M in 2023) reflect narrower definitions. The chosen estimate (USD 9.36B, CAGR 10.3%) aligns with WAAP as an integrated WAF+API protection market reported in the results.

Observability and monitoring

Primary estimate uses the MarketsandMarkets ‘Observability Tools & Platforms’ forecast (USD 11.91B in 2026, CAGR 14.1%) as the closest match to the requested observability/monitoring segment. Mordor Intelligence and specialist ‘data observability’ reports show smaller sub‑market sizes (~USD 2.9–3.35B) with CAGRs in the mid‑teens, indicating MarketsandMarkets covers a broader tools/platforms scope. The final estimate reflects the Platforms/Tools market rather than narrower data‑observability subsegments, and aligns with multiple industry forecasts showing double‑digit CAGR potential.
