Review Western European Server Market Forecast and Analysis, 2005-2009 / IDC Research:The Western European server market saw another challenging year in 2004. Unit shipment growth remained high but trends towards modular computing and price pressures as well as cautious enterprise spending continued to affect revenue results. "Over the next few years, IDC expects the European server market to provide areas of growth, such as blade solutions driven by platform migration and virtualization technologies," says Thomas Meyer, director of IDC's European Enterprise Server Research, "but this will come with a continued trade-off between modular solutions and higher-level approaches. This means that IDC expects a unit CAGR of 8. 5% versus revenue growth of 0. 7% CAGR until 2009. ".

Review 2004 BPO Contracts for Key Horizontal Functions: A U.S. Market Analysis by Vertical Industry / IDC Research:This IDC study is an overview of the major business process outsourcing (BPO) contracts signed in 2004 in the U. S. market for the four key horizontal functions of customer care, human resources, finance and accounting, and procurement. Per IDC observation, these segments have driven the greatest activity and interest in BPO during the past year. This study presents the vertical distribution of these BPO contracts, with a view to investigating BPO adoption trends and drivers characterizing different industries. The study also has the goal of identifying those vertical markets that are the forefront of BPO adoption in these four horizontal markets. "IDC has found that a handful of industries drove the lion's share of BPO contract activity in the United States during 2004," said Shruti Yadav, research analyst, BPO Services. "Responding to mounting pressures around cost reduction and greater operational flexibility, companies in the manufacturing, government, and retail sectors led the adoption of the BPO engagement model together accounting for more than 60% of all U. S. deals signed over the past year. [+]IDC expects these drivers, in combination with other BPO goals such as technology access and regulatory compliance, to drive further growth in key verticals. ".

Review Baltic States Personal Computing 2004-2008 Forecast and 2003 Vendor Shares / IDC Research:This IDC study, Baltic States Personal Computing 2004-2008 Forecast and 2003 Vendor Shares, provides detailed analysis, conclusions, and forecasts regarding the dynamics of this region's evolving markets for personal computers. The information in this study is intended to provide an understanding of the changes and challenges facing the PC industry in these emerging markets. Our 2003 figures and analysis are based on information gathered from interviews with the leading IT companies (vendors, distributors, assemblers, system integrators, value-added resellers, and dealers) in the markets. "Of the three markets, Estonia is clearly at the highest level of development in terms of products. This comes as no surprise given the country's relatively advanced uptake of information technologies. Lithuania would appear to hold the greatest opportunity, as the country is the largest in size and population, has the strongest manufacturing base, and is at a slightly lower state of IT development than its neighbors. Nonetheless, Latvia can also be expected to grow strongly, as a result of its GDP expansion in recent years. " – Simeon Hinov, Research Analyst, IDC CEMA.

Review Western Europe Home Networking Forecast and Analysis, 2003-2008 / IDC Research:IDC's Western European Home Networking Forecast and Analysis, 2003–2008 presents an assessment of the market for wireless and fixed local area networks in the home. This study incorporates current year data and forecasts for total home network household penetration. Breakdowns are provided by network type (PC networks, multimedia networks, and entertainment networks), with detailed breakdowns by technology provided for PC networks (wireless — 802. 11b, 802. 11g, 802. 11a, and dual and multi-mode — as well as wired — Ethernet, Powerline, and Phoneline). "At present, the majority of home networks are constituted of multiple PCs, connected by an Ethernet/wireless router to a broadband modem, in order to share Internet access, and in some instances peripherals, notably printers," said Jason Armitage, senior research analyst, EMEA Consumer Devices and Technologies. "During the forecast period, consumer device vendors will embed LAN technologies in products, first as a means of differentiating offerings, then as a standard feature. Service providers will back technologies that extend usage and revenue opportunities to new user situations in the home. And consumers will come to experience home networking as more than an expensive novelty prefaced by long hours calling helpdesks. [+]".

Review Western Europe Server Blade Forecast, 2005-2009 / IDC Research:As enterprise spending continues to rebound, IDC expects the server blade market to remain the hyper-growth segment of the server market. Server blades grew by 81. 5% in 2004 to represent 5. 5% of all server units shipped. This performance is expected to continue over the coming years, with a predicted 31. 9% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through 2009 in unit terms. Such growth would see 565,153 server blades shipments in 2009, representing one in every four x86 shipments. The revenue picture is just as positive, with server blades expected to generate $1,737. 9 million in revenue in 2009, equating to a CAGR of 26. 4% through this forecast period. [+]Factors contributing to this growth include: A shift away from the physical value proposition (i. e. , cable consolidation and shared redundant components) towards a management value proposition (i. e. , streamlined systems management and business process automation) to coincide with a focus by all vendors on deploying such management capabilities. The migration of blades to EMEA from both U. S. companies replicating infrastructure across regions and also internally within organizations where blades have been deployed for specific applications and the value proposition demonstrated in practice. Market demand in the SMB segment will increase on the back of vertically integrated blade solutions where systems management is placed at the fore. "IDC expects server blades to represent around one in every four systems shipped by 2009," said Daniel Fleischer, senior research analyst, European Enterprise Server Solutions. "However, there remain a number of hurdles which vendors need to cross first. The shift towards dynamic IT computing models has now begun and the promised management capabilities of blades play extremely well here. Certainly, blades have seen good traction during the initial stages of IT simplification, proving to be an ideal platform for consolidation activities. Today, issues such as the power and cooling of highly dense systems are now being placed at the fore as datacenter managers consider how they can indeed be integrated into legacy datacenters that would not have been built with server blades in mind. While today the blade remains a form-factor mainly for the large enterprise, looking forward we expect good growth to be seen in the SMB sector through the development of standard vertically integrated solutions again with management capabilities placed at the fore.
