Abstract
This IDC study reveals the market size and forecast for the system infrastructure software (SIS) market consisting of four secondary markets according to IDC' s Software Taxonomy, 2008: system and network management software (SNMS), security software, storage software, and systems software. IDC estimated that the overall SIS market in the Asia/Pacific (excluding Japan) or APEJ region was worth US$5714 million in 2007. This represents year-over-year (YoY) growth rate of 12.5%, which is comparatively slower than that of 2006.
"Security software and storage software posted the highest growth rates in the SIS space as predicted, and remain the hot areas of investment in the near future. Virtualization software will emerge and gain more traction and growth in the system software market, even though OS software will continue to dominate the overall SIS market size," says Daphne Chung, senior research manager, Asia/Pacific System Infrastructure and Middleware Software Research, IDC Asia/Pacific.
