Quarterly offering delivers detailed global data and analysis covering carrier activity and deployment of infrastructure gear to enable migration to all-IP networks
NEW YORK, May 5, 2009 – Heavy Reading (www.heavyreading.com) and Pyramid Research (www.pyr.com) have teamed up to create the telecom industry’s most comprehensive market sizing and forecasting service aimed at one of telecom’s most critical flash points: the ongoing migration to all-IP network infrastructures and the replacement of circuit-switched technologies with packet-enabled products.
The IP Network Transformation Quarterly Tracker Service combines Heavy Reading’s deep understanding of telecom technology developments and trends with Pyramid Research’s unparalleled coverage of regional and national markets to deliver the most succinct, accurate, and timely intelligence covering the state of telecom network transformation from both a business and technological perspective.
Each quarter, the IP Network Transformation Tracker Service provides a fully updated, comprehensive view of the actual and anticipated rate of deployment of VoIP infrastructure in fixed networks in strategic markets around the world – all in one single, convenient package. The debut version includes coverage of North America, Western Europe, Central/Eastern Europe, and Asia/Pacific; the service will include coverage of Latin America in future releases.
The IP Network Transformation Tracker Service offers a sweeping array of information and analysis, including:
-
Timely updates charting the progress of IP network transformation in wireline telecom networks by region and by national market.
-
Regional and country-specific forecasts for packet- and circuit-switched deployments through 2013, updated quarterly to reflect new market realities.
-
Detailed IP deployment statistics and forecasts for 59 individual network operators through 2013, updated quarterly.
-
Deep market intelligence and analysis covering key customer wins and losses in the IP transformation sector by country and specific operator, focusing on 16 leading IP transformation vendors, including Alcatel-Lucent, BroadSoft, Cedar Point, Cisco Systems, Comverse, Ericsson, Huawei, Italtel, MetaSwitch, Nokia Siemens Networks, Nortel Networks, Sonus Networks, Thomson, UTStarcom, Veraz Networks, and ZTE.
-
Ongoing tracking of the key technologies (IMS, softswitches, application servers, etc.) that carriers are deploying as part of their IP transformation initiatives.
The IP Network Transformation Tracker Service is the first joint service created by Heavy Reading and Pyramid Research following Pyramid’s acquisition by TechWeb (www.techweb.com), the global leader in business technology media. “This inaugural service is an ideal pairing of Pyramid’s extensive regional market expertise with Heavy Reading’s deep understanding of enabling and emerging technologies,” says Dennis Mendyk, managing director of Heavy Reading and Pyramid Research. “This type of hybrid product will set a new standard for telecom business and technology forecasting.”
“The IP Network Transformation Market Tracker delivers concise and complete intelligence covering one of the telecom equipment industry’s most critical landscapes -- the evolution of telecom networks from circuit-switched TDM to packet-switched IP,” notes Jim Hodges, Senior Analyst at Heavy Reading and creator of the new service. “It stands alone as a one-stop source that offers unrivaled breadth and analysis of the ongoing Class 5 network transformation in an easy-to-use package.”
The IP Network Transformation Tracker Service is distributed in PowerPoint and Excel formats. Quarterly reports may be purchased individually ($5,995) or as part of an annual subscription service ($19,995).
