There are three main sections of this report.
The first section focuses on demand for managed services, including managed services adoption trends for four new business network functions covered in the 2007 Managed Services Survey. Also covered is demand for fully-managed IP telephony and fully-managed desktop solutions.
The second section focuses on adoption of utility computing, or "on-demand" services in the education market. Covered is demand for on-demand network/bandwidth capacity, computer storage capacity, and server/CPU capacity.
The third section focuses on managed services spending. Survey data tables that detail current and future demand for all surveyed business network business functions are broken down to the education market sub-segment level. A forecast of education market managed services spending through 2011 is included.
In-Stat divides the US education segment into two sub-segments; the K-12 sub-segment and the higher education sub-segment. The spending forecast is split into these sub-segments in the third section of this report.
