Review Canadian Application Development & Deployment 2005 - 2009 Forecast / IDC Research:The Application Development and Deployment (AD&D) market grew 3. 2% in 2004, to reach $1. 62 billion, reversing the slight decline of 2003 and placing the market on track for growth throughout the forecast period. IDC Canada forecasts that the AD&D market will grow in revenue to reach $2. 05 billion in 2009, a 5. 0% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the period 2005 through 2009. Highlights for AD&D include: Growth in the AD&D market is tied to the management, access and delivery of information. Canadian organizations are increasingly warming up to business intelligence, driving it out from the domain of few experts to a larger audience of users. To the same extent, progress towards application integration and management enabled through Web services will drive growth in AD&D. AD&D remains a critical strategic chokepoint for the application software market and for systems infrastructure as well; the application server, database, and development tools are important targets for maintaining market position and driving greater share, as platform players take on greater significance. [+]
For this reason, building/maintaining a robust ecosystem across developers, ISVs, services and sales organizations is paramount as potential partners invest in the future potential of a platform. Open-source software (OSS) both as standalone functionality and integrated within a stack will have a growing impact on AD&D through the forecast period, with downward pressure on pricing across Application Deployment, Information and Data Management, and Application Development secondary markets. "The AD&D market is growing on the back of information, spurred by the need to integrate and better manage this critical asset," explains David Senf, Manager, Software Research.

Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Digital Audio End-User Survey 2005: Attitudes Toward New Consumer Technologies / IDC Research:This IDC study presents data and analysis from IDC's 2005 Asia/Pacific Audio/Video Consumer Survey. This document specifically examines survey responses related to digital audio technology ownership, awareness, and purchase intention. Topics covered include household music expenditures, preferred music formats, PC-based music consumption, paid and free online music services, CDs, compressed audio players, and Internet radio. "Emerging digital audio technologies offer consumers opportunities to venture beyond the experience of listening to established formats such as AM/FM radio and CDs," says Claudio Checchia, research manager, Consumer Devices and Services, IDC Asia/Pacific. "However, rates of adoption of new digital audio devices depend on a variety of factors, including comfort with established technologies and price competitiveness. Adoption may vary widely by country, with consumers' gender, age, household income, and level of PC and Internet access all playing an important role in making such purchasing decisions. ".

Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Security Software 2005-2009 Forecast / IDC Research:This IDC study provides a sizing of the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) security software market in 2004 as well as a 2005–2009 forecast for the market. Historical and forecast revenue data is shown for the total Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) market by functional market and by country. "The APEJ security software market grew a healthy 24. 3% in 2004 compared with the previous year. IDC expects strong growth in this market through the forecast period, to 2009. Regulatory compliance continues to drive this market, so much so that vendors call regulations 'gifts from heaven,'" says Willie Low, market analyst, IDC Infrastructure Software, IDC Asia/Pacific. "Regarding the recent vulnerabilities discovered in security products, it should be remembered that security is all about trust, reputation, and confidence. While any security vulnerability should be avoided, the response, follow up actions, and client management after a vulnerability is discovered are paramount. The approach is critical in maintaining clients' confidence, market share, and, most probably, the vendor's stock price," Mr. Low notes. [+]
Miss Vivian Tero, senior analyst, Asia/Pacific Infrastructure Software research adds, "Vendors should focus on solutions that lower IT administration costs. End users are looking for solutions that maximize scanning effectiveness while minimizing the time required for IT administrators to run the solutions. This requires automatic updates and shared management tools as part of the broad-based messaging security solutions. Solutions should also give end users the flexibility to delete and quarantine suspicious content. " "There is no one-size-fits-all solution," says Miss Tero. "Prior to making a purchase decision, end users must define their firm's digital assets taxonomy to understand and prioritize what needs to be protected, understand its IT architecture and identify its existing vulnerabilities, and map the potential vulnerabilities to the digital assets. The best approach is the multilayered 'defense in depth' strategy. The number of security layers employed and the decision to insource versus outsource security depend on several factors, such as the value of the assets to be protected, the potential loss to the company arising from security breaches, and the technical skills available within the organization to deploy, integrate, and maintain the security solutions.

Review Worldwide WiMAX Infrastructure 2005-2009 Forecast: Sifting Through the Hype / IDC Research:This IDC study examines the case for the deployment of broadband wireless access networks based on the WiMAX standard defined by the IEEE 802. 16 Task Group and presents a five-year forecast for WiMAX infrastructure spending by network operators and service providers worldwide. The study includes a high-level overview of the technology and situates WiMAX within the context of other technologies that constitute the wireless universe. This study is part of IDC's continuing research on mobile and wireless network infrastructure. "As a standards-based technology, WiMAX represents a marked improvement over earlier, and proprietary, wireless broadband access technologies. However, the success of WiMAX, unlike that of WiFi, is predicated on the emergence of an operator business case. We do not believe it poses any serious threat to the more established cellular technologies during the forecast period," says Shiv K. Bakhshi, Ph. D. , IDC's research director for the Mobile and WiFi Infrastructure practice.

Review IDC's 2005 Consumer PC Survey, Part 1 / IDC Research:This IDC study discusses the first half of the results from IDC's 2005 Consumer PC Survey. This polling of more than 1,000 United States–based consumers found that future PC purchase intent was mixed and dependent on a number of factors, including age, income, and Internet access method. In addition, this study looked at PC form factor and channel acquisition preferences, applications and activities that PCs were used for, and popular brands purchased by age, household income, and gender. "The use of the PC as a productivity tool in U.

Review Asia/Pacific (Excluding Japan) Storage Software 2005-2009 Forecast and Analysis / IDC Research:This IDC study provides a bottom-up sizing of the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) (APEJ) storage software market in 2004 and presents forecast data for 2005–2009. "The APEJ storage software market totaled US$503. 2 million in 2004, for a robust 28. 5% increase over the 2003 total of US$391. 6 million," says Vivian Tero, senior analyst, System Infrastructure Software Research. "Backup and archive software continues to account for a big chunk of the storage software revenue, but demand for storage replication is picking up and is attributed to the continued decline in disk and tape prices, increasing vendor support for heterogeneous platforms, regulatory compliance, and high availability requirements. " Tero also adds, "In the short term, we will continue to see strong demand for storage as end users view data protection and business continuity as an investment priority. ".

"With supply easing and commodity prices stabilizing, many SRM vendors and their customers could benefit from this upswing,'' said Albert Pang, research director of enterprise applications at IDC. "However, growing pains are stalling the momentum of vendors in segments like contract management because of their inability to broaden their reach across different industries. ".
