Review Counterfeit Software Is Counterproductive:If there is one issue upon which all software vendors are in total accord—and it may be the only issue—it is the damage wrought by consumers and corporations that knowingly or unwittingly use counterfeit software. The headlines invariably and almost exclusively focus on the issue of counterfeit software from the vendors’ perspective: legitimate revenue lost because of illegal software. Stories also abound of lurid punishments that range from true-up costs, fines and even criminal prosecution and jail time that potentially await end-user perpetrators when and if they get caught.

Review Service-Oriented Architecture Consulting Report: Facilitating the Service-Oriented Enterprise / ZapThink, LLC:Key Findings: Today’s professional services firms are struggling to find their long-term value proposition in environments that are in constant change. There is a significant opportunity for PSOs in the short-term for helping companies implement and adopt SOAs, and in the long-term for providing critical business process expertise. As Service-oriented process tools mature, system integration will no longer be a separate activity, but will be subsumed into the process orchestration and choreography activities within the Service-oriented process tools. The business process design, optimization, and execution consulting market will come to displace the system integration market. System integrators will find the low-level integration work diminishing as their customers adopt SOAs, and therefore will need to transition their skills to the Service-oriented process arena to avoid having their market erode substantially. There is a significant opportunity for consulting firms in the next five years for helping companies implement and adopt SOAs, and in the long-term for providing critical business process expertise. Total SOA architectural and process consulting revenues will surpass those from system integration by 2006. System integration revenue by professional services organizations will decrease by over 70% by 2010, while Service-Oriented Business Process consulting will increase 20-fold in the same time period.

Review Increased Choice Spurs High Levels of Activity in European-Asia Connectivity:In March 2006, Delivery of Advanced Network Technology to Europe (DANTE) launched a project to deploy the first high-bandwidth connection (we define high bandwidth as a Gigabit or more) linking the Europe and Asian research communities. The project, called Oriental Research Infrastructure to European Networks (ORIENT), uses a terrestrial network, which traverses Russia. This is the first high-bandwidth connection using the Trans-Russia route. It follows hot on the heels of the successful development of the Trans-Eurasia Information Network (TEIN2) project also managed by DANTE. TEIN2 also utilizes the Trans-Russia route. The Trans-Russia route is a recent addition to Europe-Asia connectivity; it became available in early 2005. This illustrates that the academic communities’ desire to link geographically disparate groups allowing greater collaboration and dissemination of information, placing them as leading proponent of new connectivity options.

Review XMLとWebサービス・セキュリティ Report / ZapThink, LLC:セキュリティは、企業全体にWebサービス・テクノロジを普及させるためにまず解決しなければならない課題である。そのため、多くのソフトウェア・ベンダがXMLやWebサービス・セキュリティ市場に参入し、実際のさまざまな問題に対して広い範囲にわたってソリューションを提供しているが、その数は多く、混乱しかねないほどだ。ただ、こうした努力のほとんどが、企業クラスのXMLやWebセキュリティ製品およびサービスに対する確実な需要ではなく市場地位の防衛に当てられている。結果として、企業が自社のメッセージを明確に伝え、製品の欠点を無くそうと努力する間、XMLおよびWebサービス・セキュリティ・ソリューションの新興市場では、一定期間の混乱が顕著にうかがわれることになると、ZapThinkは確信している。しかし、これからの数年間、XMLやWebサービスのセキュリティ市場は、Webサービス市場全体と歩調を合わせ、急速に拡大するであろう。2006年までには、ほとんどのアプリケーション・レベルのセキュリティ・ソリューションは、XMLおよびWebサービス関連のものになるだろうとZapThinkは考えている。
