NGN Drivers and Inhibitors in the Global Market

Product Type: Market Research Report
Published by: In-Stat
Published: March 2008
Product Code: R97-3092
Description
A few years ago, IMS was all the rage. Today, the term is hardly ever mentioned. Has the migration to NGNs ceased, or has it simply changed form? This research report examines the current state of NGN development and explores the reasons why operators are making relatively risk-free investment decisions. A detailed look at why selected operators have chosen to build an NGN is presented, along with changing attitudes regarding network architecture and configurations. The report also reviews how the prevailing carrier market conditions are impacting the global equipment suppliers.

Finally, there is a discussion of some interesting, and possibly disruptive, trends that could have a profound impact on service provider markets. A worldwide capital expenditure (CAPEX) forecast covering 2008-2012 is presented, segmented by product category, network layer, and geographic region. Unlike other reports that hype a specific technology, or product segment, this report provides a real-world understanding of the market forces driving, and often delaying NGN migrations. It is a must-read for both equipment suppliers and service providers.
