Abstract
This latest edition of Analysys Research's Business Data Services report provides updated forecasts of spend on business data services, identifying the sectors that are deploying new advanced networks and the applications that will be key drivers of future growth. The report discusses the current state of the market and the migration from leased lines, frame relay and ATM to networks based on MPLS supporting IP VPNs, DSL and Ethernet. Recommended actions for incumbent carriers, established data carriers, IP carriers, Ethernet carriers and systems integrators are included.
This report assesses business spend across two dimensions -- services and technology -- and the detailed approach taken to forecasts results in nearly 5000 data points. The data annex shows spend by a number of categories, including:
- size of enterprise: large (500+ employees), SME (0--499 employees)
- country/region: France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the UK and Western Europe
- service: point-to-point circuits, Layer 2 VPNs, IP VPNs and Internet access
