Abstract
This IDC study looks at the opportunities and challenges for IT vendors
penetrating the Asia carriers market. Carrier IT spending trends as well as the
market forces that shape these trends are discussed together with case studies
of IT adoption in China, Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ' s largest IT
spender.
"The telecommunications sector will continue to be a lucrative market for IT
vendors. However, carriers have matured and learned from past mistakes with
disparate systems. Solutions provided by these vendors will need to address the
key challenges faced by Asia carriers, which lie in the complications of
transforming a network to manage both conventional and emerging network
services," says Bill Rojas, research director, Communications Research, IDC
Asia/Pacific.
